The 28-year-old midfielder sustained the injury during training after colliding with team-mate Alex Baptiste.

Seasiders boss Ian Holloway said: "Fletch collided with Alex Baptiste and if you collide with Baps then God help you.

"Luckily Fletch has not broken anything but an ambulance was called and he was taken to hospital.

"Fortunately nothing was broken or fractured, he has however torn a ligament in his ankle."

  1. Not good news, T-F has made such a positive­ contribution this season. Great opportunity for someone­ else to shine, however.
