That's very sad.,I thought it was a joke at first.
His only hope career wise is someone will give him a contract based on appearances ,which dosnt seem likely1 -

You really have to feel for him.
I see Aneke isn't playing a second game in succession for the U23s, so perhaps on the bench for tonight vs Fulham.1 -
Find this all very sad. I know its a small minority but comments like 'stealing a living' etc are in very poor taste. Given he's been trying for years to get properly fit and has never really had a long run of games in a team, he probably will be forced to retire soon at such a young age. Only guessing of course and would love him to make it elsewhere, but retiring so young is gonna be pretty crushing mentally.13

If you mean a debilitating knee injury that has not only reduced his potential, for more than half his career, or massively reduced his availability over 5 or 6 season isn't "permcrocked" your right.jacob_CAFC said:

Exactly!! - Thats what I meant when I added Solly to the list, his career could have taken him into the Premier League but for fitness issuesCafc43v3r said:

Chris was better than Carl Jenkinson (who played for England) when he was in his prime3 -

He'd probably be better in non-league, with a day job. It doesn't look like he'd make a living on an appearance based contract (I'm not making a joke here...as a permanently injured amateur cricketer, I have a lot of sympathy with Lewis Page).Goonerhater said:That's very sad.,I thought it was a joke at first.

Lewis got replaced - could be anything.
Everyone on here seems to be writing him off.
Perhaps we could wait until we hear a bit more about it before kneejerking3 -

None of us know yet so it’s not fair on him to speculate or suggest anything like that. He knows the importance of these games for him. I am only so gutted and hope he’s okay and gets all the help and support he needs, whatever this setback may be.Cafc43v3r said:
If its precautionary, after 12 minutes, wouldn't that suggest its either the same injury again or another muscular one?Sage said:Absolutely gutted for him. I really hope that he’s okay and whatever this injury is, is very much precautionary.
He’s the one suffering more than anyone else here, please don’t think he’s not.
Assuming he warmed up properly, I would be outraged if he didn't, that's really not good is it?

Feel for the guy.0 -
Matt Fry deserves a spot on that list.sam3110 said:Page, Wiggins, Basey, Youga, we don't have much luck with left backs do we?2 -
Maybe they told him that if he felt anything at all he was to come off as a precaution and he's actually alright. That would be the dream for him. He's probably third choice LB/WB now and I doubt he'll play for us again any time soon so they can probably afford to just take no chances with him and really ease him back. If he's had a bad recurrence then I really feel for him.

Yeah ..... let's wait and first see what the reports say, before we jump to conclusions.Garrymanilow said:Maybe they told him that if he felt anything at all he was to come off as a precaution and he's actually alright.

This lad has been through so much. Hoping it's not another crushing setback for him.
Rooting for you, Pagey!

That could be the end of him. He'll be playing for a mate's team and will need anl business idea or two asap for earnings.0

Incredibly sad.
Doesn't some sort of insurance kick in if injury ends a career?0 -

The clubs insurance would only cover the rest of his contract and is book value (ie next to nothing). I am not sure what, if any, the PFA offer or what he would have as an individual.JamesSeed said:Incredibly sad.

The only positive if their is one, is that it’s 12 minutes more than he played last week.0

No that’s proper shit for him, hope it’s not very serious a set back,0

If I was him I’d start trying to get some coaching badges. I really feel for him. Young lad who had just made the break through into the men’s game. Injury after injury. Can’t imagine what it’s doing to his mental health. Releasing him wouldn’t necessarily help things either.7
-
IMO the club could do worse than look after him in this situation - he’s part of the CAFC family after all. If he likes the idea of coaching then helping him with badges would be a great start.13

This and help him with education/whatever he fancies.Callumcafc said:IMO the club could do worse than look after him in this situation - he’s part of the CAFC family after all. If he likes the idea of coaching then helping him with badges would be a great start.8 -
Even if/when released in the summer I hope this Middle Eastern medical team look after him if there is any chance of recovery.
Gutted for him.
Decent Championship quality full back at his best with age on his side to go higher and earning potential of say £5-10k per week, having likely worked his socks off to get to where he seems likely to have to start all over again.
Must be devastating.8
