Congrats on the new role @Herbie6590 👏🏻

It's not like we haven't had an excessive amount of injuries since then. It may have stepped up a notch this season, but it isn't the first time we have wondered if something is fundamentally wrong causing this many injuries.

Behind a paywall. Can anyone with access copy and paste please.

Maybe not to this extent but we had a load of injuries under JDT and around Christmas last season loads were out

Joseph haven't scored this season for the U21s. He has 6 or 7 appearances. Neither has Dlamini. I would also like to see Joseph before Dlamini, but in fairness none of them are probably ready.

Proctor been head of medical since 2021 so it’s unlikely they’re responsible for the sudden amount of injuries

Makes no sense unless it's a new injury. Rovers Instagram on 9th January clearly showed him back on the grass "stepping up the recovery" in training. No club gets this level of injuries. This isn't bad luck at all.

Wouldn't surprise me if they rushed him back or pushed him too much to get him back and he broke down with something worse. They're only excuse for our situation is that we have injuries, they'll be desperate to get him back.

If he is out for the season then it's full panic mode IMO. We won't be able to get a good replacement in, partly because we're Venky Rovers, partly because everyone else knows we're now Venky Panic Rovers and will stick an extra million on any asking prices. If Gudjohnsen is out longer, we're going down aren't we?

Not doubting Mercer's source but that would be a U turn of epic proportions from the Club. On the 17th of Jan (6 days ago) Ismael was quoted as saying in the LT Gudjohnssen would be in contention to play on the 31st of Jan v Hull City! Questions need to be asked if they've got it that wrong.

Have to agree gudjohnsen being available was our realistic hope of staying up if he is out for the season then we are in for a lonnnng spring Unfortunately plays right into their hands itl be the reason and excuse even though we all know dreadful/slow/lack of recruitment plus a poor manager in the real reason

A huge blow if proven correct. Yuri has been run into the ground - at risk, IMO, from longer term injury. Think we now need 2 more decent strikers to give us even half a chance.

I think I need to make my sarcasm more obvious.

Yeah that's the nail in the coffin if that's the case.

When was the last time a player was out for one or two games? Seems like every injury we get is months.

If Gudjohnsen is out for the season then I'd say that's relegation nailed on

If we weren't fucked before, we are now. I'd love to get this season over and done with tbh.

"starting"?

I’m starting to suspect our medical team is shit.

What I've heard. Update atm Ismael's presser?

Surely not?
