maxjak Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 The Bristol Post has a couple of articles related to Beniks injury, he is MOST DEFINITELY out for the season. No idea why the official site has not announced it? There is also an article on strikers currently unattached who might be available........Mcormack, Bony, Anicheibe etc. I hope we just stick with what we have until January, rather than get in a mercenary. It makes me laugh when it's stated that some of them would have prohibitively high wage demands?...................They are out of work! You would think they would drop their huge wage demands, so they could get into a squad and prove themselves, but NO, it would appear most of them are happier doing nothing but training alone, rather than lessen their demands and get to play football, the game they are supposed to love! Am I naive? Anyways.......No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same time he claims to have seen Afobe in Waitrose who was rushing around absolutely fine despite his torn ACL that this same person claimed he had.

hantsred Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 too many with too much at stake for this to be fake news...club must have to wait for co-ordinated information and release with Stoke. Probably having a scan today and then official news would follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear the worst too, but the BP will want to maximise clickbait while there is no official announcement. I would like to see Ali Duerden make a report on it, he is usually pretty reliable. I wonder which part of Radio Bristol provided the story. I suspect it is true and it would be a blow, but I can wait until tomorrow to see if he is in the squad.

supercidered Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 As he isn't our player it would mean we aren't in a position as a club to say anything until the parent club wants to release information or give City permission to release such information. If he isn't injured I will run around the Mem with nothing but city nipple tassles on shouting I'm a Gurt Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 This is bizarre now. Can’t recall the club ever taking so long to confirm a major injury before, this is unprecedented surely? Odd situation. Struggling to believe they would do this to keep Swansea guessing.

Numero Uno Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 This is all so strange. I can’t believe a guy like Peter Coates would be complicit (by association) in some hoax “team selection” sting by another club currently borrowing a £12m “asset” of his. This is a bloke who has enough cash to make Steve Lansdown’s fortune look like loose change. Truly bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
