City boss Peter Taylor has confirmed that Matt Elliott has suffered a knee injury and is unlikely to play in any of City's remaining games.

The challenge from Taribo West in the later stages of the game at Pride Park meant that Elliott was forced to limp off and after scans it looks like it could be the end of Matt's season.

City boss Taylor said: "Our physios believe that Matt has damaged the ligaments and the signs are that he won't play in our remaining matches. It's another blow and we haven't had the best of luck with injuries in the last few weeks."

The injury comes at a very unfortunate time for Taylor with City still trying to salvage a few wins form the end of the season in an attempt to break up the 7 straight defeats that they have recently suffered.

Matt has already been left out of the Scotland squad that will face Poland next week after Scotland manager Craig Brown heard of his injury.
