ARGYLE look like being without full-back David Gray for their next few games.

The on-loan Manchester United defender missed Argyle's unlucky 1-0 win at the Walkers Stadium on Saturday because of an ongoing injury.

"David's going to be out for the next couple of weeks," said Argyle manager Paul Sturrock. "He's got a chronic injury in the hip/groin area.

"He doesn't train but plays on a Saturday. It's not ideal, so Manchester United and ourselves have had a wee chat about it and we feel [rest] will benefit the player.

"The sooner we get him back totally fit, the better."
