Gambia hopeful Mustapha Carayol is hoping tomorrow’s clash with Bradford City is the last he’ll have to watch from the stands for a while.

But Bristol Rovers’ talismanic winger says he’s grateful to new boss Mark McGhee for telling him to take as long as he needs to make a full recovery from the groin injury which has kept him out of the last three games.

“It happened in the FA Cup game against Aston Villa,” said Carayol. “Alan Hutton went to shoot, I tried to block it – but as I did, my foot slipped and I felt a little pull in my groin. I tried to carry on because I didn’t want to come off, but I could feel it tightening up and didn’t want to make it worse.”
