You're right of course but were I involved I might look to benchmark our record against other clubs. Again if the data was available. For all I know Rennie does exactly that but it would be interesting to get his take on the current situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was done trying to wallpaper that suit onto his body for the purple and lime photo shoot, he put his foot into the paste, and twisted his knee trying to walk with it on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of head, last season: - Williams quad (pre season) / hamstring (rehab) / hamstring (match return) (missed all season) - Walsh quad (pre season) (missed most of the season) - Baker hamstring (pre season match) (missed most of season) - Kalas shoulder match contact / falling (short term) - Mawson knee - stretching / knee trying to save a goal (both long term) - Weimann ACL (match but unopposed) (missed all of season post-Swansea) - Sessegnon hamstring match / hamstring again (missed big chunks of season) - Brunt hamstring training (missed most of 1st half of season - retired) - Paterson Hip (generally got worse) / hip (after comeback) (missed most of last 2/3rds of season) - O’Dowda hamstring match / hamstring match (missed most of second half of season) - Martin hamstring match (???) (missed second half of the season) - Rowe knee match / knee match came back too soon (missed last 1/3rd of season) - Pring hamstring training following return from Portsmouth (missed second half of season) - Jack Hunt played through foot injury in the main - Sam Bell hamstring match (missed last 1/3rd of season) - Dasilva shin splints (missed most of the season) Who have I missed Jon? (and a lot of those were all together). Edited February 7, 2022 by Davefevs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and a lot of those were all together). Watkins was injured again at the end of the season as well, I know there was some cynicism after the training ground rumour but he was said to be injured for the vast majority of it. Adelakun after his loan recall only managed about 4 games & was then out for the season, too. It has been better & in Baker’s particular case was impossible to plan for, but still not great, Tanner, Atkinson, King, James, Semenyo & HNM (far shorter in the latter two cases) have had spells out, with the total number of games missed by the first 4 that still seems a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 From memory Martin got injured around Christmas/New Year then that was him done for the season. Pring would have been around that time too as it was just after he came back off loan. Rowe was a bit later, end of Jan/early Feb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Thanks for filling in the gaps GC and JD. So, we are doing better on the injury front, but more exposed by a smaller squad. Is that fair? Positives (subjective): Martin no recurrence O’Dowda no recurrence Weimann bionic! Pring no recurrence Negatives (subjective): King recurrence Tanner recurrence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRFTG Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 I have it on good authority KP's knees are 'shot' as a result of how much time he spends on them thanking The Lord for the hugely undeserved riches that continue to fall his way each week.

Is that fair? Better but not much better, because the influence on the team is - unfortunately - quite similar, not helped by our current ressources (probably not enough money to bring in more free agents in case of further injuries). The faster we get the points required for survival, the better is. Edited February 7, 2022 by Dan Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
