July 9, 201214 yr Shame for the lad but get that insurance policy cashed in and find a replacement #noroomforsentiment
July 9, 201214 yr Certainly not me. working in that field-ish it just isnt worth the risk. Itll get him in the end just enjoy your life fab no point looking back.
July 9, 201214 yr I'm not so sure anybody ever really thought he would be back did they? A certain teetotalling Jock manager?
July 9, 201214 yr I'm not so sure anybody ever really thought he would be back did they? I was sure I saw a squad number for him and thought, that's odd.
July 9, 201214 yr A certain teetotalling Jock manager? He never started him when he was fully so no chance now even if he recovered to a standard he could play again
July 9, 201214 yr A certain teetotalling Jock manager? He's not that daft, I'm sure they all know at the club that he'll never play against the highest level. He should take his insurance money and enjoy the rest of his life. We should, as a club, already have prepared for life without him in the squad
July 9, 201214 yr I was sure I saw a squad number for him and thought, that's odd. I saw that, and can only think they have done it out of sentiment whilst he is still recovering. If he sees that his number has been taken off him, then I guess it would be terribly demotivating in his fight to get back to full fitness......probably a fruitless fight, but one that he has to keep going at, until he's told to stop As soon as its 100% confirmed he's finished then it will no doubt be given to somebody else.
July 9, 201214 yr I don`t think he will play again, it wouldn`t be fair on any opposing player, they`d be scared to tackle him. He`d make a tremendous embassador for the club, he`s known all around the world plus he`s quite a clever lad.
July 9, 201214 yr i know nowt about heart surgery so i'd not presume to comment on the accuracy of the story but, is there not a fcuking big chance that it'd always been known he'd need further surgery once he'd got some strength back ffs, this op could be for anything...clean out some scar tissue, anything

July 9, 201214 yr I'm not so sure anybody ever really thought he would be back did they? Yes, I'd based all my future hopes on him. Now we're doomed.
July 10, 201214 yr He's not that daft, I'm sure they all know at the club that he'll never play against the highest level. He should take his insurance money and enjoy the rest of his life. We should, as a club, already have prepared for life without him in the squad Just a point here; whose insurance money is it? Do the players insure themselves against injury or do the clubs insure their players against injury? Or possibly both.
July 10, 201214 yr Its a bigger plus to me that he gets to spend the rest of his life raising a family and enjoying life over playing for BWFC
July 10, 201214 yr Just a point here; whose insurance money is it? Do the players insure themselves against injury or do the clubs insure their players against injury? Or possibly both. Both
July 10, 201214 yr At what point can we cash in? Does he have to retire completely from football and who rules on this? Fab/club docs or insurance docs?
July 10, 201214 yr I was sure I saw a squad number for him and thought, that's odd. Wrong - it's even (and a perfect number).
July 10, 201214 yr I think a few people on here had him in their title-winning squad for the coming season. Can't see him coming back to top (nearly top) level professional football - never could. I agree there should be a club role for him though, once he's fit enough.
July 10, 201214 yr Wrong - it's even (and a perfect number). Come on people, that's classic Malc, worth a "+" from anyone.
July 10, 201214 yr Come on people, that's classic Malc, worth a "+" from anyone. It was very good indeed. +1 from the East Lancs Stats Geeks.
July 10, 201214 yr Tis a real shame for the lad but if someone said I could retire in my 20s just as I was about to raise a family with no real money worries I'd settle for it. Before folk go mental im sure he, nor any ex pro, wouldn't see it quite like that and I can only guess as to how gutting it must be for him, but if it happens he can't play again then, so long as he's healthy, it could be a lot, lot worse.
Not seen it elsewhere sorry if its a SEB,
Story he needs another op which could spell th'end of career.
