Maltshoveller Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 His contract is up in the summer as well!! Will this change the minds of the broad about giving him a new contract?? I'm not sure they would have done anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 I wonder why it took so long to diagnose...I would have thought that cruciate damage would have obvious.A year seems a long time.Some players are back after 5 -6 months. Players can recover well from this injury - look at Robert Pires.He's even better now than he was before so at least theres some hope for Amankwaah.

Taz Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 I wonder why it took so long to diagnose...I would have thought that cruciate damage would have obvious.A year seems a long time.Some players are back after 5 -6 months. It was re-injured in training. I didn't realise that his contract was up in the summer, however I think that he will be offered a new deal (at least an extra season). Before the neck injury he was fantastic, and since coming back, has looked quite good as well. Unlike some players (no names) he doesn't go down and make the crowd wince, thinking that he's going to leave on a stretcher. This will now pave the way for a signing of some type for the right hand side. Also within the current squad, there is only one person that would fit straight into that position: Christian Roberts. Ok his crossing is not perfect, but neither was Mr Murrays. Going back to the injury, it's already been mentioned that Pires has come back from a similar injury (possibly better than before?), and also the likes of Ruud Van Nistlerooy, Roy Keane, Micheal Owen (or is that what he is currently out for?) It's players like that, that have come back as good as they were before the injury, if not even better than before, that Kevin can look towards and think positively. On the other hand though, isn't this a similar injury that Jamie Shore (Rovers) went through? Unfortunately he had to retire from the game. Get well soon Kev.

cider gliders Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 What ruddy bad luck he as had this past couple of yers! He`s a young lad though, an we be sure he can come Back! Good Luck Kev! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Matt Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 What a damn shame! All the best kev. He hadnt been playing that badly this season besides onbe game and he would have proved useful competiton for the right wing slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brady bunch Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Christian Roberts. Ok his crossing is not perfect, but neither was Mr Murrays. only correct to a point Taz, Murray in the later years improved his crossing dramtically, last season he was as a good a crosser as I have seen at the gate in my 15 years of going down there.

Big Nose Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Poor old Kev, Barman will be gutted. Keep your pecker up old son. This makes a signing even more imperative.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedUn Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Gutted for the lad - booed off by those nice Blackpool fans when McMahon's lot kicked him out of the game for the original injury wasn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DolmanDudess Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Bad luck, bad luck and more bad luck. Poor bloke. I hope this isnt the end of his City career because he has the potential to be a fantastic player. Get well soon Big Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Hard luck Kevin. It is a great shame as with both injurys you were loking the part and a bight furture awaited. Don't get depressed with all these negative posts. You can come back a more determed player next season in div1. With Kevin out and Luke missing for a month Danny will nee d to get someone in in the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy g Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 What a shame, he's proved in the short spells he's had for us that he can be a more than useful player, but he's had more than his fair share of bad luck. Looking back even further than the car crash there was the leg-injury against Milwall which kept him out for ages. Still, Tommy Doherty was out for ages with a series of injuries and he's managed to put all that behind him now, so theres hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
