Taylor out for Boro

14 September 2009 12:59
Middlesbrough defender Andrew Taylor is out of the Championship trip to Sheffield Wednesday as he waits to discover how long he will be sidelined by an ankle ligament injury. Manager Gareth Southgate is resigned to losing the 23-year-old full-back for several weeks after he limped off during Saturday's 3-1 win over Ipswich. Central defender Chris Riggott is likely to be out for another eight weeks after undergoing a second operation on a knee problem. However, Tony McMahon is expected to shake off a foot injury picked up at the weekend, while Emanuel Pogatetz (knee) is due to play for the reserves on Wednesday evening and Didier Digard (groin) is also close to a return.
