SAM Martin has been ruled out of Sheffield's busy weekend schedule of away matches at Workington and Glasgow.

The Tigers reserve crashed in Friday's Conference League fixture at Scunthorpe and has suffered heavy bruising, although fortunately he has no broken bones.

Sheffield's options to replace Martin have been limited by Saturday's Conference League Pairs event taking place at Weymouth, and the club are grateful to Ben Hopwood for agreeing to step in for both matches over the weekend.
