so, recurring injuries to youngsters, and there still isn't anything wrong with our conditioning I guess?

terrible shame for the boy. Let's hope he makes a full recovery and gets back into the mix some time next year.

Really bad news hope he comes back stronger than ever.

Don't know about that but I believe it's now the 3rd time that a player has taken a knock during a game and then been sent back on later only to then be ruled out for a substantial period of time.

then we have a problem!

Also my initial thoughts...however the difficulty comes when you listen to the player, the player must be saying they are alright to go back on.

Bit silly in a friendly though, just as a precaution any-one taking a knock should have been taken off and kept off.

Or the doc/physio gives them the ok to go back on. We'll see if we have any change when Popey leaves!

A real shame for Danny, hope he keeps his chin up. I'm sure he's got a big future, though.

must be heartbreaking for the lad, but he has age on his side, speedy recover danny see you fit and raring to go 2012

my thoughts exactly - why on earth was he sent back on? what are our medical staff doing?

maybe the club should install an xray machine on the bench in future! hindsight is a wonderful thing isn't it?

No just get a common sense one which would have told them not to send an injured player back onto the pitch in a meaningless friendly.
