Duffy missing for Silkmen clash

21 August 2009 15:34
Midfielder Duffy was dismissed in last weekend's 5-2 mauling at newly-promoted Burton Albion and now serves the second game of a three-match ban. Midfielder Fraser McLachlan is a long-term absentee after he twisted his knee in the opening-day 2-2 draw against Hereford and had to be substituted after just 12 minutes. A scan has revealed ligament damage and luckless McLachlan is set for a long spell on the sidelines. Striker Garry Hunter (groin) has yet to feature this season but on-loan Exeter midfielder Manny Panther could come into contention after he joined on a season-long loan deal earlier this week.
