Disley joined Shrewsbury from Bristol Rovers in July 2009

Shrewsbury midfielder Craig Disley says the support of his family will help him deal with his latest injury setback.

Disley, who missed four months with a knee injury earlier this season, broke his ankle in Monday's 1-1 draw with Rotherham and faces eight weeks out.

"I've never really suffered with injuries, so to be out for months is a shock," he told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"When you're like a bear with a sore head, you need your family to get you through those times."

Disley joined Town from Bristol Rovers in July 2009, moving to Shrewsbury with his wife and two young children.

"They come to home matches to watch me," he added.

"It's really good to have them around you to get you through the times that aren't great."
