New Town keeper Brian Murphy will be out for two weeks due to the ankle ligament injury he suffered in the warm-up at Leicester City on Sunday. There had been concerns that the Irishman would be out for longer.
Boss Roy Keane told the club site: "We're hoping Brian will be fit again in two weeks or so.
"We've been unlucky with keepers but I did fear it could have been longer so we'll sit tight and wait for Brian to return.
"It puts us back in the same scenario as before he arrived, with Arran and young Ian [McLoughlin] and we will stay with that until Brian is back." Richard Wright is out until the end of March with knee ligament damage.
Meanwhile, reports claim midfielder Colin Healy has completed his half-season loan move to Falkirk, although neither club has confirmed the switch. Livingstone are reported to have been amongst the other clubs to have been chasing the Irishman.
