Accrington Stanley have suffered an injury blow with the news that Leighton McGivern will miss most of the remainder of the season with a broken ankle.
The 22-year-old striker picked up the injury - expected to keep him sidelined for four months - during Saturday's 3-3 draw with Macclesfield.
McGivern opened the scoring at Moss Rose before being stretchered off after 34 minutes of the clash.
Meanwhile, Stanley have confirmed that striker David Brown will spend a second month on loan at Conference side Burton Albion.
