BILLY Clarke is out of Bradford City's play-off campaign with a fractured cheekbone.

The striker suffered the injury near the end of Sunday's 2-0 win at Chesterfield.

Clarke, who had scored City's second goal, will have an operation today.

Phil Parkinson said: "Billy got a whack on the cheekbone in the second half and went straight to hospital afterwards.

"It's a big blow. Obviously Billy getting his goal was a bonus for us and he will be disappointed to be missing this key games.

"But unfortunately injuries do happen."

James Hanson is having a scan this afternoon on his calf problem and City are continuing to monitor Reece Burke, who came off at half-time at the weekend with a groin strain.
