The Fat Controller Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 As if Louis Carey dropping a barbeque on his foot wasn't strange enough, check out Marco Asensio's injury ruling him out of tonight's game... To make it even more bizarre, apparently the pimple was caused by shaving his legs. Any other strange injuries?
CotswoldRed Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 You'd have thought he could afford a plaster.
Silvio Dante Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 The one I'm sure I remember is Dave Beasant dropping a jar of salad cream on his foot and fracturing tendons....
Dollymarie Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 He probably had an ingrowing hair, and can I just say ingrowing hairs hurt like hell. . . . But ive always been able to pull my socks up! Modern footballers hey?
Midlands Robin Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 I read somewhere that Darren Barnard once injured his leg slipping on a puddle of his dogs pee in his kitchen. Not while he was playing for us though.
Dollymarie Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 David Batty got run over by his own child didn't he? Like she was on her bike or something. Oh and not a footballer, but Brian from East 17 got run over by his own car after he fell out of it and had forgotten to put the handbrake on.

Chekhov from the new Star Trek movies died the same way - run over by his own car with no one else involved
ZiderEyed Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Rio Ferdinand once put his back out reaching for his remote.
Offside Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 I'm sure I remember one player (Rio Ferdinand?) injuring his leg by resting it on a coffee table when he was sitting down.

Yep, that was Rio too! Apparently he he shouldn't have sat in the same position for so long

Mr Harvey had overdosed on Jacket Potatoes- I believe he had three for lunch. Feeling sick on the drive home, he opened the car door to relieve himself of said potatoes,fell out and his car ran over him. Not making this up.

deadredfred Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Santiago Canizares the Spanish keeper missed out on playing at the 2002 World Cup after he dropped a bottle of aftershave in the bathroom of the team hotel and severed a tendon in his foot. Do believe he was replaced by a young keeper called Iker Cassilas. Wonder what happened to him?
richwwtk Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Not at all football related, but I once put my back out brushing my teeth, and another time picking up a sock off the floor.
WRERE Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Didn't Kevin Prince Boateng pick up an injury (groin?) from having too much fun time with his partner?

Think there was a goalkeeper who got forced into retirement after damaging a tendon folding his ironing board or something.

I'm not a footballer - obviously - but my eldest son once wrote off a car on our driveway at 9 years old. It may have been my fault.
