Injuries!

[Nardendee]

Ffs If that’s true about vilktor,that’s very annoying and careless on which blame lay firmly at managements door…we didnt risk players when in dire need of points last season and yet we send out him out in a friendly…bizarre..

What’s true about Victor?

I think someone alleged had said that he had an injury prob before the game but still played Narden...

For the last few seasons ago we have received alot of injury issues within our squad. I know every club have to deal with injury issues but we have more than any other football club on the planet I'm that sure. These injuries are mainly muscle injuries and not very few are from a collision with an opponent. What I want to know is 1. Are we over training the players and not doing the right things? 2. Is it the training pitches we are training on? 3. Are we just very very unlucky? My opinion is I don't believe in coincidence so I'm going for 1 or 2 it's happening too many times, we have at least 4 out before the season begins!

It's a pointless argument/debate. You say one thing, which you don't back up with facts (useful things, facts). if I say the opposite I can't prove it either, because I haven't bothered to look at every other club's injury record, not even every FL club let alone every club on the planet!

Believing something doesn't make it real or a fact. Ask Trump.

True Gids but being a supporter for 55 years does make you have a feel for our clubs injury list pre season based on previous seasons. I have not researched this but I can't remember us being so ill prepared for a footy season in a long time. Maybe it is just a sign of the times that effects all clubs nowadays, I hope so then we might start on an equal footing with them. Maybe Plymouth fans are saying the same thing right now...I hope so but doubt it...

Can anyone else tell me that we have been worse prepared for the start of a season in terms of injury and recruitment?

Obviously, if we do make the 4 signings proposed that will make a big difference...we will see

I think all none contact related injuries are down to every football manager.
I can’t prove it but I’ll just guess.
It’s simple some fans want to believe it’s the managers fault and will jump on every injury like he’s done it himself.

Lad who works for me is a Coventry fan. They have got injury problems at the moment so it must be the managers fault.

It’s just sensationalism to suit an agenda.

Ferguson was knackered because of Warne overworking him.
He played the next night..

To Clarify I was responding to the initial post by millertop…that he had injured himself in training,but it was in warm up before the game as millertop corrected himself..

All clubs have pre season injuries no doubt but what has made it more of a concern for fans are lack of replacements due to lack of recruitment. Bear in mind the numbers of players who have left the club in the Summer as well. I can cope with Icky being side lined for a few weeks if I know Tilt or Mcdonald can replace him. I can cope with Viktor being out if Vickers can replace him.

Of course you can go down the route of putting kids in but that puts them on a hiding to nowt. Imagine the stick the young goalie will get from a section of the fans if he starts letting soft goals in. Hardly good for his confidence and more than likely make him perform even worse. The fact we aint got a replacement for him means the poor bugger has to carry on.

We all know certain sections of our fan base will make players lives hell if they slip up dunt matter if they are young lads.

Ffs I’m sure that was a joke about Fergie
Even Paul Davis tweeted about it
