One a regular.

It gets to the point where you think not what the team news is every week but what is the injury news.



So a regular? We don't have many.

Viktor? God help us
Dexter? No cover, A good one is at peterboro
Fred? Could be a blessing but no winger apart from Appiah who aint much cop.
Jesus christ? A blessing can get Oddofin in.
Hugill? A blessing get georgie on.

So to sum up hope its jesus or hugill otherwise we are buggered.

When you enjoy work and like your bosses you are more inclined to go into work when you're unwell.
Makes me wonder just how many of our players actually want to play the game

[rolymiller]

I'm pretty sure when Warnock kept us up he sent players onto the pitch who were not fully fit and they did a good job. Is matt too soft with em like you say?

Maybe a more appropriate title would be "Why Does This Keep Happening?:

Karl, I think you make a valid point.
We've had comments like "He felt a bit of tightness" and "He's got a bit of an ache."
Really? You're footballers ffs and niggles are par for the course!
I often hear ex-players on TalkSport and without exception they were desperate to play and most of them were rarely pain-free on match days.
Pity we don't have a culture like that within the squad.

Mellow, you'd have to go back to the 80's early 90's for that to happen when wages were low, where players put the concerted effort in whether or not they were carrying an injury.

The modern day players are nowhere near as tough as the old school. Players are so overpaid now doesn't matter to them if they play or not, the money is good.

We should rename the ground A and E Seal New York Stadium

You're probably right Brin.
It just seems that more of our current squad are likely to drop out than ever before if they don't think they're 100%.
But then again, that reflects modern society to some extent.
