peter gentle was talking to a few of us sunday night in star inn willerby. he said that his injury isnt fully diagnosed yet but looking at the possibility of a stress fracture. he said they was waiting on last years scan results being sent from aussie and also fresh scan results. he said if it is stress fracture then 10 - 12 weeks. i must stress that this wasnt definate but was from gentles mouth.
as a side note the reason gentle was there is because the team my lads play for - hull wyke - were holding there annual fundraising dinner sunday afternoon in willerby manor hotel. gentle had promised to attend but due to rearranged match couldnt be there. He found out that most people go in star afterwards so he and shaun mcrae popped for a pint and a chat. mark of the man i think

10/12 weeks confirmed, stress fracture, new injury

6 weeks in a boot then re-assessed

oh well at least we know ,hopefully back may

Pretty much what was said last week then.
