Travis has punctured lung

Simon Travis has a punctured lung and has spent four nights in hospital according to the Non-League Paper.

The Hereford United defender was playing with the English team in the Four Nations Tournament in Ireland. He is pictured in the paper with his wife Charlotte, who was flown over by the FA to be at his bedside, and team-mates Mark Robinson, Craig Stanley and Adam Stansfield.

"He landed awkwardly and got a knee in the stomach and when he went down and didn't move we knew it was serious," commented manager Paul Fairclough.

Travis is said to be "comfortable and making good progress".
