Ronnie Moore has a collection of injury worries for Tranmere's npower League One clash with Carlisle.

Defender Michael Kay, playmaker Andy Robinson and forward Adam McGurk were involved in a minor car crash earlier this week and are suffering from whiplash.

Moore told Tranmere Player: "A few of the boys were injured in a car crash on Tuesday. It was nothing major but someone hit Michael Kay's car and him, Andy Robinson and Adam McGurk were in it.

"They've got a bit of whiplash and stiff backs and haven't trained for three days so we'll just have to wait and see."

Last week's postponement against Swindon provided some valuable recovery time for players nursing minor knocks, but forward Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro (ribs) remains a slight doubt.

"There were three or four who would have been struggling for the game against Swindon but they're all fine now," Moore added.

"Jean-Louis is bruised and it's just a matter of pain, We'll have to wait and see what he's like but I think there's every chance he could play."

Rovers skipper James Wallace (knee) remains sidelined.
