WESLEY Joyce has been advised to give football a miss for the rest of the season.

A scan taken after a clash of heads at Shepshed caused doctors to warn him against playing again - a decision that spells more headaches for manager Phil Mullen.

Mark Shepherd is ineligible for tomorrow night's Worcestershire Senior Cup final first leg at Halesowen Town (7.45) but he may have struggled to be fit any way after aggravating a hamstring strain prior to Saturday's home defeat at the hands of Gloucexter City.

Grant Pinkney limped off during the same match but Mullen has ben given special dispensation to play Nick Heath and another recruit ffom Kidderminster in tomorrow night's match.

The second leg takes place at Common Road on Wednesday, April 23.
