We can confirm that Mikey Hewitt picked up an injury at Peterhead and will be sidelined for approximately eight weeks.  The defender suffered a broken arm fracturing both his Ulnar and Radius, we wish Mikey a speedy recovery.

Elsewhere, Euan Ross is working through his recovery following a hamstring injury in training. Euan is progressing well and we look forward to his return to the squad over the next few weeks.

Kurtis Guthrie is making good progress following his stress response and we are hopeful this period of rest will result in Kurtis being back in the next two weeks.

Jordan Allan’s recovery is ongoing after a recent setback. He is expected to be out for a further 4–6 weeks. It has been a long period of time out for the striker and we are working hard with the player to ensure when the time is right he will be raring and ready to go for the team and carry on where he left off last season.

Cole Burke is back at Kilmarnock and continuing his rehab with his parent club following an injury to his thigh.

And Callum Penman is also back with his parent club, St Mirren for treatment following an injury sustained on international duty.

On a more positive note, Benji Luissint has returned to full training this week. It is good to add Benji back into the fold after a few weeks sidelined.
