Hartlepool United winger Andy Monkhouse has been ruled out for at least a month with a hamstring tear.
The 33-year-old suffered the problem on Saturday during his side's 4-0 win over Bristol Rovers in League Two.
"It's disappointing news because Andy has played a lot of games for us this season in a few different positions as well," manager Colin Cooper told the club's official website.
Hartlepool return to action on Friday when they visit Oxford United in the league.
