Cox poised for shoulder operation
Neil Cox
Cox is out of contract at the end of the season
Crewe Alexandra captain Neil Cox is set to undergo surgery on his shoulder to cure a long-standing problem.

Cox is likely to go under the knife after Saturday's visit of Carlisle and will be out for around six weeks.

First-team coach Steve Holland told BBC Radio Stoke: "He has been struggling with a problem with his shoulder for a while but has continued to play.

"The problem is deteriorating all the time. It is not something we can wait for until the end of the season."
