JON-PAUL Pittman's nightmare season continued this week as he picked up a fresh injury just as he was coming back into first team contention.

The striker rolled his ankle last month but this week suffered a fresh setback as he injured a ligament in his leg.

It's not known how long the former Oxford man will be out for, but he won't be able to add to the eight appearances he's made this season against Scunthorpe United on Saturday.

Blues boss Gareth Ainsworth said: "He's had a tough time so far with injuries. He's had a few niggles here and there. He gets so close to coming back and just has a little setback.

"There's no news apart from he won't be fit for this weekend."

Meanwhile defender Marvin McCoy is suspended after picking up five yellow cards, meaning a likely recall for Reading loanee Nick Arnold at full back.
