O'Flynn ruled out of Imps opener

07 August 2009 14:07
O'Flynn suffered a muscle injury in his right foot during pre-season and has been ruled out for the next two weeks so Hendon will again turn to veteran Paul Furlong to lead the line. Furlong, 40, has signed a new one-year deal to prolong his career at Underhill and will start at Sincil Bank. Jake Hyde is struggling with a groin injury but could feature while defender Joe Devera is expected to be involved after a groin injury of his own. Assistant manager Gary Breen picked up a knee problem in pre-season but has been declared fit to start while Micah Hyde will skipper the side on his debut in midfield. Australian defender Daniel Leach is also hoping for a league debut after overcoming a knock, while Hendon has added three more new faces to his squad this week, with defenders Ryan O'Neill, Clovis Kamdjo and Ahmed Deen arriving on Thursday.
