Season over
Derry (concussion) will not feature again this season, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "Jesse won't be available for us now until the end of the season"
Analysis: Derry suffered the concussion in a clash of heads during stoppage time of Monday's match against Nottingham Forest, requiring him to be taken off on a stretcher and transferred to hospital. Manager Calum McFarlane's update confirms the severity of the situation, with the club ruling him out for the remainder of the campaign. The news is a significant disappointment for the attacker, who had made his first league appearance of the season in that very match before the incident occurred.
Stretchered off with head injury
Derry was forced off the field in stoppage time of Monday's match against Nottingham Forest due to an apparent concussion. He was taken to the hospital after the injury, and interim coach Calum McFarlane said "We're hearing positive signs from Jesse and Rob [Sanchez]", Bobby Vincent of Football London reports.
Analysis: Derry would be involved in a scary clash of heads Monday that would see two players exit the field, although Derry would be taken off via stretcher. This likely implies the attacker is suffering from a serious concussion, likely to sideline him for a week or two due to protocol. The good news is he is conscious now and undergoing further checks at a hospital. This is his first league appearance of the season, so this is a bit of a disappointment for the attacker, as his chances to play will be numbered once he returns to play.
