Paul Ifill's latest comeback from injury lasted less than 45 minutes after he limped out of Crystal Palace's reserve game against Brighton.
The luckless winger, who has been sidelined with hamstring trouble, grabbed an early goal as the Eagles' second string sank their derby rivals 2-1.
But he suffered an ankle injury after going in for a 50-50 challenge and had to be substituted before the interval.
Fellow midfielder Neil Danns was also involved after a month out with groin trouble and could be in the frame for Saturday's trip to Sheffield Wednesday, while defender Tony Craig continued his comeback from shoulder surgery.
Youngster Ryan Hall, back at Palace after his recent loan spell with Dagenham, grabbed the Eagles' winner.

on me head bert (Crystal Palace fan)
"largeslimsilvers, the worst player for me was that French defender Ishmail, I think he cost a small fortune if my memory serves me correctly, I'll never forget the game against Charlton when he ducked under a cross to allow Carl Leaburn to score, that just about summed him up. The best in my time has to be Don Rogers,who played for us in the early seventies, surely the most exciting winger Palace have ever had, when he was on fire he was unstoppable & scored some spectacular solo goals for a struggling Palace team during the club's first term in the top flight."
