Ricardo Moniz: 'Jamal Campbell-Ryce should play with torn knee ligament'

Moniz: 'Players should play with broken legs'

Notts County manager Ricardo Moniz has hinted that Jamal Campbell-Ryce might have to play on in their relegation battle despite a suspected torn knee ligament.

The 32-year-old winger, on loan from Sheffield United, will have a scan on a medial collateral ligament injury that he picked up in the Magpies' 1-1 draw at Yeovil Town.

Moniz is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "Maybe players have to play with broken knees or broken ankles. I said to him, 'Jamal, we need you'.

"It's so important that we stay up. I don't know how we do it, but you have to come back as quickly as possible."

Notts are one point from safety in League One with five games to play.
