Sharp & Hayter injury news

[Thunder Bolt]

SO'D yep the same man that sent our players out to destroy yours apparently, only ever stated that Dunk in his view should have received a yellow. It doesn't seem like the same man does it !
Had the same happened to CMS or KLL, there would have been many a hissy fit on here too no doubt.

LuaLua had his leg broken at Hartlepool last November by Andy Monkhouse and was out for the rest of the season. Use our search facility and see if there any hissy fits or abuse of Monkhouse here.

Ligament damage is obviously bad and we all wish him a speedy recovery but jeez, reading some of the Rovers' fans comments on here you'd have though that he was so badly injured that immediate amputation was the only thing that was going to save his life and that Dunk should be banned from football for good. A guy called 'Popsider' I think was especially virulent.

 

[thoreveraviking]

So broken leg in three places?!! Bloody big difference.

True potentially more time out injured, breaks more often than not are easier to treat than ligament damage or so I'm told.

 

[Braders]

Good question , it's certainly not coming from our club or the press.

Twitter, mostly.

The vitriol seems to be on twitter, that well known forum for thought out discussion. Pretty unpleasant but to be expected after an incident such as this, as long as he ignores it he will be ok.

It was unfortunate that Sharp picked up a serious injury but it really wasn't that bad a challenge and Dunk should just get a thick skin and carry on.

 

[scwiffy]

Hang on? I thought England's World Cup talisman Sharp had been permanently consigned to a wheelchair after the worst tackle in football ever on Saturday.

Is his middle name Lazarus?

 

[Braders]

OBVIOUSLY I doubt you'll get anyone here wishing anything but a speedy recovery for Billy Sharp , but it STILL didn't look as nasty as people are making it out to be the with Spurr and Naylors RASH tackles pre-the incident it could so nearly have been one of ours.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Where is this stick for Dunk?

Twatter & a few Donny fans mouthing off on here (& elsewhere). You know, the usual places...

Oh right. I don't use twitter.

Yes cos it wasn't like your players tried to kick KLL out of the game was it

 

[Twinkle Toes]

I'd keep it that way if I were you. Full of meaningless crap & worse most of the time.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

I dont think there was any uneccessary abuse metered out to Monkhouse when KLL broke his leg. The attitude from some Doncaster fans absolutely stinks. One even tweeted CMS talling him to clatter Dunk in training, as if he would do that!

 

[Braders]

I wouldn't bother , I've wasted a WEEKEND pointing this out to outraged Donny fans only to hear "meh,meh,meh,meh,meh" back..

 

[Vegas Seagull]

I still can't quite believe that Hayter came off worse from volleying Calderon in the forehead!!

Dreadful decision not to book Hayter as he was stretche

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

What the Donny fans need to be doing is asking why 7 of their first team players are still injured from last year? New fitness coach needed maybe? I mean, you dont see that very often after.

 

[Seagull Steve]

I'm sorry that Dunk is getting abuse but it's NOT from all quarters , shit happens and ligaments are generally far harder to sort than straight breaks. Personally I would ''ban'' all players from using twitter directly with supporters and it would stop this type of crap altogether.
There hasn't been one statement from our club that I've read that mentioned 3 breaks to Sharp's leg straight after or since the game, Chinese whispers that's all and they can't be ever trusted.

No its not all of your fans, just as much as it wasn't all of our fans who booed Billy Sharp as he was stretchered off, it was a few dimwits, that think its funny seeing others hurt. From where I was sitting all I could see was a round of applause from both sets of fans. I hope both of your players make a quick recovery, and back to playing asap.

EXACTLY. There are methods of training that help minimise injuries like both of those suffered by Sharp and Hayter. I seem to remember Gus saying the fitness staff were a big reason we did so well last season - we hardly had any injuries. Clearly Donny still subscribe to the 'magic sponge' school of physiotherapy.
