Mokoena missing for Pompey

11 February 2011 08:30
Portsmouth will be without captain Aaron Mokoena when they travel to Doncaster. The defender is stuck in South Africa following their midweek friendly against Kenya as his work permit has expired and he will not be issued a new one until Monday. It is the latest in a series of selection problems this season for beleaguered boss Steve Cotterill, whose side are without a win in 10 games. Defender Tal Ben Haim and midfielders Richard Hughes and Michael Brown are all still unavailable due to contract issues. Left-back Carl Dickinson will probably be on the bench again despite an ongoing knee problem, while striker Danny Webber has yet to play this term due to a cruciate injury.
