Doncaster to assess Tyson

Doncaster are assessing the head injury Nathan Tyson sustained against Fulham.

Tyson was forced to leave the field late on in Tuesday night's Capital One Cup clash at Craven Cottage, leaving Rovers to finish the third-round tie with 10 men. The forward, 32, banged his head on the ground and may now be a doubt for Doncaster's league trip to Walsall at the weekend. "He was out for a little bit and as much as it meant finishing the match with 10 men, you've got to put the safety of the player first," said Rovers boss Paul Dickov after his side's 2-1 defeat. "He landed on the back of his head, banged it on the ground and was out for a few seconds so we'll have to make sure he's okay first and foremost. "But I thought he was outstanding during the game, he worked his socks off."
