Norwich City boss Peter Grant has been dealt a double injury blow to dampen the optimism generated at Carrow Road by Saturday's 1-0 win against Sunderland.

Both Gary Doherty and Craig Fleming, who missed the victory against Roy Keane's inconsistent side, could be out of action until Christmas.

"They could both be out for a little while," Grant told the Canaries' official website.

"The Doc (Gary Doherty) has a problem with his back and Flem's got his hamstring. We could be looking at December or even Christmas.

"We've got a few phone calls in (for loan signings). We'll still look to bring people in as I'd like to use Dion (Dublin) further up the pitch."
