GEORGE Abbey - out for at least one more week with a hamstring injury.
Abbey may miss rest of season
28/ 4/2004
NIGERIAN international George Abbey could be missing for the final two games of the season after aggravating a hamstring last week.
The right wingback has been suffering from hamstring spasms, which kept him out of the 1-0 defeat at Scunthorpe United and will see him almost certainly miss the last home game of the season against Oxford United.
"He's struggling with his hamstring," admitted Macc boss Brian Horton this week. "I don't think he will be playing on Saturday, and I think we will have to wait and see if he plays again this season."
With only the trip to face Bury after that, some fans fear the popular player may have played his last game for the Silkmen. His contract runs out in the summer, and he has been courted by a number of scouts according to sources close to the player.
Newly-promoted Norwich City are the latest club to be mentioned in the same breath as Abbey, although West Ham United, Everton and Huddersfield Town have also been mentioned in the past.
