23/24 Injuries thread

Asked for an update on the injury front, the Head Coach said: “We’ve got one or two that are sort of 50/50 that are coming back into it hopefully. They could give us a boost in terms of the squad for tomorrow.

"In terms of the lads who played last week, everyone is pretty much okay."

Probably talking about Jones - Cant think who the other one is - Ness maybe

If they are 50/50 they shouldn’t be making the squad for tomorrow.

Is Ness fit?

He’s a good looking lad, but not sure about the facial hair.

'The 2 midfielders we signed when they were injured and have never been fit here mught be fit by the end of January. The striker we signed when he was injured and has never been properly fit, is not fit and never will be.'
Three cheers for the recruitment team.

And this has been part of the problem - we keep on signing half fit players who firstly cant start as soon as they sign & secondly spend months on the sidelines when inevitably they come back too soon.

Hector out for 10 weeks with hamstring problems 

Assume that will mean Thomas & Ness will remain at the club during the window. Frustrating that we seem to lose one player as another one returns.

Gives Ness a good opportunity. Thought 12 months ago we had a player on our hands but had a bad injury, I think he will surprise a few if given a run in the side

Ten weeks for a hamstring that hardly anybody noticed he’d done. The guy from Brighton has a lot of work on his hands to fix this fitness shitshow.

Wonder if that's why the Macauley transfer was forced through this week ?

I dont think so, myself, since the priority  need for a centre back was obvious. The trouble with Hector is that apart frkm his glaring lapses, he clearly cannot play the leader/organiser role, and neither can Jones; as Curbs and especially Brownie have been pointing out virtually every gsme. So we needed this guy in urgently. And then Hector immediately does his hamstring in a way that hardly anyone noticed yet keeps him out for 10 weeks. So the reasonable goal of creating competition among centre-backs is immediately sabotaged. I remain wary of Appleton but honestly this would drive any manager to distraction and I cannot understand why more fans do not seem to recognise the issue. 

Worried about Chuks having another set of scans. Those scanning tables are rock hard and not easy to negotiate. 

Any rough dates for when Camara & Aneke could be back in the match day squad?

Nathan Jones in his press conference earlier today: "everyone is back in training apart from Miles Leaburn".

Think he must have forgotten Hector as he was said to be out for 10 weeks less than a month ago 

Maybe he had issues with the previous head coach.

Taylor, Camara, Aneke, Isted and Hector all being back or close is massive... Although when added to 9 new January signings then how Jones makes the starting 11 gell near enough immediately I have no idea.
