Influential midfielder Anthony Grant was carried off on the hour of the 1-1 with Torquay United at Plainmoor Saturday afternoon and could miss the Barnet game just three days away. 'How many fingers am I holding up?'; 'Are the pubs open'. Granty off at TorquayThe travelling Shrimpers faithful were a touch concerned when they saw star midfielder Anthony Grant carried off at Torquay after a boot in the face from Gulls skipper Lee Mansell to be replaced by Lee Sawyer on 58 minutes.The only news from Roots hall at the moment is he was not fit to continue due to suffering concussion and no further updates have been released.We're sure old Snoop Dog will be up and running and ready for the vital home games against Barnet on Tuesday and Northampton Town on Saturday which by the end of them could see the Shrimpers sitting in the top seven.Well, that's what we hope anyway! Any news and we'll post immediatly. Blues boss Paul Sturrock would only tell BBC Essex for now: "Anthony Grant is a bit concussed. I think the boot in the face was the problem and the doctor decided he was too badly injured to carry on."
