Orr to start season without mask

Bristol City defender Bradley Orr will play pre-season matches without a face mask after recovering from a fractured cheekbone and eye-socket.

The 25-year-old suffered the injury during the Championship play-off final at Wembley in May.

"I don't think the mask does much good anyway. I'm sure once I've got my first header out of the way then it's back to normal," Orr told City's website.

The club start their pre-season games against Forest Green Rovers on 12 July.
