Lawson D'Ath faces another period out injured
Hereford's threadbare squad has been dealt another blow as Lawson D'Ath was injured at King's Lynn and faces missing '15 games'.
Bulls boss Paul Caddis made the admission after his side picked up a point in a goalless draw against 10-man King's Lynn.
The Bulls could only name four players on the bench, including assistant manager Adam Rooney and young keeper Ollie Lewis.
D'Ath, who has made 19 appearances so far for Hereford this season having already spent a spell sidelined through injury, was carried off injured in the second half.
After this week, Hereford then face nine games of playing on a Saturday and Tuesday so D'Ath could set to miss more than a dozen games.
In his post-match interview, Caddis agreed with BBC Hereford and Worcester's Clive Eakin that the influential midfielder's injury "didn't look good".
"Lawson's probably looking at six weeks if if we were a full-time club and he was in every day getting treatment and stuff like that.
"But Lawson's job requires him to get in and out of vans and pick heavy stuff up.
"We'll assess him but at the moment we're going off the basis that we're probably missing for about six weeks.
"And where our schedule's at, that's probably about 15 games."
Also absent were Kyle Howkins and Remaye Campbell with illness, and with an overnight stay before Saturday's game at King's Lynn, Caddis admitted Aaron Skinner was also "struggling" on Friday night.
"We've got a bit of a bug going through the camp," he said.
