Mansfield Town will be without Michael Boulding for up to a month after the club's top-scorer suffered a hamstring injury.

The 15-goal marksman limped out of the New Year's Day defeat at MK Dons and looks set for an extended spell on the sidelines.

Boulding's replacement, John McAliskey, also had to be substituted after picking up a groin problem.

"Past experience tells me he could be out for up to a month," admitted Stags manager Billy Dearden.

"It is a big blow to us because he is our top scorer and the third top scorer in the division, so it is a big hole to fill but we will just have to get on with it."
