DORCHESTER Town are waiting to find out the extent of Corby Moore's ankle injury picked up in the 2-1 win over Tiverton.

The Magpies midfielder was hooked just three minutes into Tuesday night's win after going down with an injury in the game's opening minutes.

First team coach Jason Brookes admitted it was "too early to tell" the extent of the injury and hoped the player could recover quickly due to his influence on the team.

After the game he said: "We've just been assessing him in there.

"It's too early to tell really, but hopefully it's not going to be as bad as it looked.

"He's felt something in his ankle and he couldn't really put too much pressure on it at the beginning there when he was trying to get back up.

"Hopefully it's not as bad as we first thought because he's been a really important player for us and we don't want to not be with him for too long."
