But then again, I haven’t been Steve Allen run out in his tee shirt in the middle of winter, so he can’t be a real physio PS where's the tongue in cheek emoticon? G'day zippycar try this emoticon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always have a few at this stage of a season and so do everyone else. Just glad it's not Joey, Josh, Aden, Bailey or Callum. You have to have a squad to cope with these things and in the main we do. Maybe a signing and/or a couple of loanees in Jan will alieviate these. Wish them all a speedy recovery and return to the squad. To be honest the only one which weakens the squad is Diedhiou. We don't have another pacy powerful front man like him. Djuric is a different type. Pisano yes is a blow but actually our form improved when Bailey came in at right back. Just a shame he was given that ridiculous suspension. Hegeler, Lucic and GON not really influenced much in their time here though we could do with extra cover in midfield. To survive with Smith Brownhill and Pack to Jan is going to be tough and we saw how thin we are with Woodrow playing centre mid v Cardiff. We must focus our efforts on bolstering the midfield and striker position in January. If we lose Djuric again with Diedhiou out we are short on options.

He seems like a guy who really enjoys the work he does and the difference he makes. As long as they're also good at what they do, having a likeable person in charge of your rehabilitation can make a massive difference during a real low point. I believe that was Lee Matthew's leg that he used . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distortia Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Thanks for this, great interview. It's encouraging that Steve (whom admittedly I have seen very little about in the past) seems such a good, knowledgeable guy. Of course it's difficult with all of these injuries so I'm pleased that he appears to be the right man in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we haven't got the option to chose them but that said they have each played so little that their absence hasn't got that significance that Bailey's has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do still think that he potentially is more of a loss than the three players mentioned, they haven't played much first team football and you can't miss what you haven't had. It does put more strain on the other players though as they can't easily be rested themselves if their replacements are crocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southvillekiddy Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Great bloke, very clear in his explanations and loves his job. Showed his impressive knowledge without getting too technical and he obviously really cares about our players. Touching to see that he feels it's partly his responsibility when they get injured and equally shares in their joy when they recover and play well. Very reassuring to know that he is with us and rates our Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, the team spirit is now very reminiscent of the title winning one and I`m sure they would have been angry as **** over the injustice which can only be a good thing IMO.

Ska Junkie Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 What an interesting interview, I really enjoyed that. He's obviously very good at what he does and cares passionately about the players. Nice one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
