mozo Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Sorry if I'm a little out of touch here, but... In light of the revelations of three Blackburn team members falling foul to swine flu, did we ever get clarification of the virus that rendered a number of our players bedridden? I remember that it originated during the trip to Portugal but cant recall much detail. The team have done remarkable well this season considering the impact this illness had on the squad.

Gazred Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Only been referred to as "a virus" as far as im aware. If it were swine flu they've probably done the right thing it not naming it, id imagine it could effect attendances or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bug they picked up pre season in Portugal So it could well be pig-flu then? Surely otherwise they would have defined exactly what they had. Or was it an STI....?

CiderHider Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/8327576.stm Apparently footballers spitting is "disgusting" according to our nanny states Health Protection Agency, sweet Jesus, Im guessing those jobsworths have never played sport in their life, they should try running with a mouth full of flem for 90 mins, what do they suggest, they all carry hankies in a top pocket? Have they nothing better to do that worry about footballers spitting??? ****ing assholes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
