SOUTHEND United boss Kevin Maher is unsure when defender Ollie Kensdale will be back in action.
Kensdale missed Tuesday’s 2-1 win against Altrincham after suffering a slight fracture under his eye socket during Saturday’s victory over Aldershot Town.
And Maher could be without the centre-back for the next fortnight.
“We’ll know more after he sees the specialist today,” said Maher.
“It might take a couple of weeks but we’ll have to see how it settles down.
“We could get a mask or something but it might take time.
“He’s a loss but Adam Crowther stepped into that position and JD has filled in again in another different position and was unbelievable.
