O'Leary could be out for months

Graham Turner has told Trevor Owens for BBC Hereford and Worcester that Stephen O'Leary's back problem is worse than thought.

"We have lost Stephen O'Leary with a prolapsed disc. He is going to be months rather than weeks," said Turner

However Turner had better news about Lionel Ainsworth.

"He has had a scan down at Watford. It was a jarred knee. We're hoping early next week he will be back in training. The situation with him isn't too serious."

Later in the interview Turner was asked how the injury and loan problems were hurting his budget.

"Some of them are on standard loans like Darren Randolph so it's three, four, five months but the emergency loans Bruno N'Gotty for instance we had just resigned him for a second month and it was only a week into that second month so we have to continue paying Leicester, same with Wolves, same with Watford.

"It does impact on the financial situation but the most important thing for me is survival at this level so if we have to got to put more money out for loan players that has to be done.

"We've got to make every endeavour that we remain a first division club."
