Boss Ian Evatt told the Bolton News: “Victor has been suffering with a nasty back injury and a sneeze set it off, believe it or not.

“We have had it scanned and should have the results very soon. Victor is a powerful boy and even his sneezes are powerful.

“He felt a bit of a crack in between his ribs and we are hopeful it is just a cartilage or muscular issue but until we have a good look at the scan we won’t know.”
