The keeper who joined City two days before the opening game against Norwich made thirteen appearances for the Sky Blues and was popular amongst City supporters. Micky Adams will have to field his only senior keeper in Clayton Ince for the trip to Leicester City on Sunday with Jonny Tuffey who returns from action with Northern Ireland U19's in Cork tomorrow on the bench.
Said boss Micky Adams: "We're obviously very disappointed Stephen has been recalled but we have to get on with it. "It leaves us very short of cover but it gives a great opportunity to Clayton, who is obviously very experienced."
