August 4, 201114 yr Any sightings? Any news? Any step-ups in training? Gone very quiet, thought he'd be doing some substantive training by now.
August 4, 201114 yr Read a post on the website a while back that the poor guy had to learn to walk again from scratch. He was beginning rehab on a treadmill with a specially deigned harness on it, so that it would take off the vast percentage of his body weight and over time slowly re-introduce his leg to his full weight. That was going back a good month or two. i would imagine by now he would be back applying full weight on it and cant be far off starting actual firm ground training, as i know they spend quite a while jogging and jumping on a trampoline.

August 18, 201114 yr http://www.soccerway.com/news/2011/August/18/premier-league-preview-bolton-v-manchester-city/ Possible return this weekend. Article says he is still some way off due to calf strain?!!
August 18, 201114 yr no it was his achilles! fingerers crossed for his return becuase steinsson has made nervous on a couple of occasions to say the least.
August 18, 201114 yr It was his Achilles. On Goals on Sunday he said "I'm hoping to be back in contention by the time we play swansea at the end of October boyo".

August 18, 201114 yr He sounded as Welsh as Ryan Giggs Or as I mentioned before the very welsh Vinnie Jones!

I wonder how his missus has been coping???
August 18, 201114 yr I wonder how his missus has been coping??? Are you suggesting the aforementioned special harness was designed (already being used) by the Ricketts couple for something else
August 19, 201114 yr no it was his achilles! fingerers crossed for his return becuase steinsson has made nervous on a couple of occasions to say the least. Had his appalling clearance to Bothroyd ended up in the back of our net then Saturday's result could, and probably would, have been a lot different. The sooner the Taff is back the better.
