March 22, 201115 yr Back to the thread then what's the crack with BWFC refuse to state what the injury is. (As reported in the BN)?
March 22, 201115 yr really dunno what to make of this one cruciates and the like, i don't think the op is done so quickly he had a clean and stitches on saturday then another op on monday all very strange i guess holden has also been told to say nothing as well as he's usually a good source of info at times like this, fat sam would be scouring the lists of unattached players...
March 22, 201115 yr Thanks for the message....but this is not the Dukes of Hazzard. I guess you're talking about the yall? I know it makes me sound like a hick (if you don't know what a hick is, it's like a redneck, like the Dukes of Hazard) but we honestly talk like that and it sounds better than "you guys," which is what they say in the north. Don't want to sound like a Yankee. The trouble is the iPad autocorrects "yall" to "y'all" which looks really southern and not Texan. So I always have to go back and fix it.

It's a sham to throw Stoke off their guard. Joking aside I wish they would come out and tell us the full extent of the injury. I mean why the big secret?

It definately won't be the cruciate. Both the anterior and posterior are in the very middle of the femur and tibia and very protected so I highly doubt they would be damaged. I'd hazzard a guess it's the medial collateral ligament which joins the femur and tibia down the inside of the leg. A gash like that would leave that ligament in the firing line before either cruciate, which is bad, but not quite as bad. Although that could just be total bollocks.

Thanks for that Dr KP Dammed educational this forum is - I will be applying for that chase programme soon - them chasers wont catch me and they will shit themselves if they know I am a wanderersways poster

The gash could just be the start of it and the coming together could have damaged any ligament. It's basically guess work at the moment. I can't see why the club won't just tell us though?
March 22, 201115 yr http://plixi.com/p/86071417 Looks pretty strapped up there. That brace is commonly used after ligament surgery JSL
March 22, 201115 yr Thought the American chap Steadman had the monopoly of knee surgery for sportsmen? It is odd that no clear injury description is coming out
March 22, 201115 yr Don't think ive ever known a player become so popular so quickly I hope hes here for a long time
March 23, 201115 yr Don't think ive ever known a player become so popular so quickly I hope hes here for a long time Same thing here in Houston.
March 23, 201115 yr It would be nice if at a home game, we all wore bright orange as a sign of support. Blonde wigs might be a step too far.
