I didn't get the chance to fully speak to Bob Lilley after the game, however he did clarify that forward Bertin Jacquesson, who came off after just five minutes, suffered a hamstring injury.
He said it was too early to get a full assessment, but did hint that it could be 'four or five weeks' until he is back. Given the impact he had on the team last year and the need for the Hounds to start off on the front foot and not play catch up, is not a good sign indeed.
