Sharps out for two weeks

Last updated : 30 August 2005 By Matthew Jones
Tranmere Rovers' key center defender Ian Sharps will be out for atleast two weeks after sustaining a knee injury against Swindon Town in Rovers' 1-0 yesterday.

It's sod's law really for Tranmere. Days after they let back-up center back Paul Linwood go out on-loan to Wrexham, Sharps picks up an injury. This could mean a move for Ian Goodison to center-back and then bringing Carl Tremaco in to Left-Back.

Tranmere are already without Gareth Roberts for the Bournemouth game because of international duty, so Paul Brown could get his first start of the season.
