Another one bites the dust at the Riverside - striker Jeremie Aliadiere will be sidelined for six weeks following an ankle operation.
The Frenchman went under the knife in London on Monday.
Head of medical Grant Downie: "He had an arthroscopy and two small pieces of bone were flushed out of his ankle.
"The operation was a success and I would expect Jeremie to be available to return to training in six weeks."
