Mixed feelings for Montgomery

07 October 2009 17:04
The 27-year-old picked up the injury in Saturday's draw with Doncaster, but is relieved he is not expected to be sidelined for longer. Montgomery said: "The news is a lot better than I thought it would be and with it being medial ligaments instead of cruciate it's the best result I could have hoped for. "It happened in an innocuous tackle after about 30 minutes at the weekend. I felt the knee bend in and although I wasn't in agony it did feel floppy and weak. "Having not had a knee injury before I had nothing to compare it with and that's why I carried on until half-time. "The doctor has told me it will be six to eight weeks, so anything in front of that schedule will be a bonus. It's disappointing because I've been feeling fit and strong and enjoying my football, but I have to be careful not to comeback too soon."
