Harry Curtis is awaiting surgery after breaking his leg during last night's game.

The club has thanked everyone who helped Harry during the 'chaotic and distressing' situation at last night's game.

The match at Abbey Rangers was abandoned following a tackle on the player two before half time.

It has since been confirmed that the defender suffered a double leg break.
