    Old news I guess but just catching up on thon fanboy who gets a weekly bit in the P&J.
    I’m generally not a fan but apart from calling Ruby a plank (unhelpful) I did note this

    And another mounting issue the Dons are facing: the revelation that Jamie McGrath will miss most or all of the remaining programme brings the number of first-team squad members out with months-long complaints to a painful six.
    Though there is probably an element of wicked coincidence, it is a bad look that so many major injuries have been sustained in just eight weeks since the loss of head of medical Kevin Bain, highly regarded for his preventative approach.
    On the surface, a mess right across the organisation. They had better hope the expensive foundation beneath is sound.
    Says himself wicked coincidence but you wonder.
    Maybe 2 +2 = 5 but I have already expressed concern about injured players remaining on the pitch this season.

    Several have played on and ended up out longterm - Molloy, Vinnie, Sokler. I think McGrath played on in the Hearts game too?
    Dorrington looked crocked Saturday. Devlin is apparently playing whilst waiting an op.

    Didn’t know he had gone. Yes to an extent the staff have to rely on players themselves but is there someone with enough authority to put their foot down?

    Milne was another one injured during a game and played on.
    Mcgrath played on twice, once with the head knock and then with his shoulder.

    Surely the player must be part of the decision though and willingness to play.

    Dorrington just went over his ankle, but seems alright after a few minutes. We'll know if he is missing on Saturday if it was something more serious.

    If he is out it means Ruby will start and things could get messy for us IF we lose.

    I think the injuries are just bad luck more than anything else.
