Shetland Owl Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 According to Dom Howson Westwood will be out at least two- three weeks having had an injection in his groin. Abdi has had another set back, he trained twice last week then picked up a muscular injury. No injured players due back for Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowlisback Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Abdi situation is a total joke. It's a pity it's not like real life with footballers - he would have been ill-health retired by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Abdi signed for £4m on about £30,000 a week so far he has cost us over £300,000 a game or £6.3m a goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookeh Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 One thing worth noting.. Jos said no one was back before the last game. Yet Hunt played and he'd been injured. I don't think Jos is being up front about who's available, perhaps to disguise a potential lineup from the opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lomas613 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Feel for him obviously CCs issue not getting players fit and conditioned enough for the season ahead is costing him a lot of injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean unlike Carlos that told the other team who would be please 5 days in advance - to give them time to prepare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err.. I'm not talking about carlos at all. He's gone. No point mentioning him imo. What I said was, don't necessarily believe that no one is back fro the weekend. Jos has lied about it before.

You didn't need Carlos to tell you who would be playing, we all knew weeks in advance. If we knew I'm sure the opposition would be able to guess. He did have his favourites.

It is good that he is keeping his cards close to his chest, its refreshing to have a proper manager again in this respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not criticising him for it, just pointing out that what he says in the interview is not necessarily the real situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Bach Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The last time we had this kind of farce on what we considered to be good signings were Phil O'Donnell and Simon Donnelly. An absolute shambles of a transaction no matter who is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two good free agents that at the time looked to be good business, didn't we sign them in the same season and the one game wonder Phil Scott - had a cracking debut against Villa and we never saw him again.

I don't know how you can blame anyone for him signing. Abdi was fit for season after season before he came to us, there was no reason to suspect he would succumb to injury as he has. The quality of the player was proven. His fitness was proven. At the time he signed he looked like a great piece of business. I guess it's possible to suggest something in training is responsible for his injury situation, but lets be honest, none of us know whether that's the case or not. Sometimes things just happen. It's unfortunate, and with hindsight he's been a very bad signing. Blame tho? Don't go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Abdi , Hutchinson and fletcher . Some serious wedge on these three for nothing in return. I’m guessing I’m between them they are on at least 80 k a week . That should have been used elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
