[Albion] Baleba and Ayari

[AZ Gull]

Usually when a player is unexpectedly not in the squad there is some reporting around it (illness, injury etc).

I haven't actually seen anything for Baleba and Ayari. Have I missed it?

 

[The Fits]

Both off to Saudi.

 

[The Optimist]

Someone said small muscle injuries on the match thread, but I’m not sure what the source was.

 

[chickens]

I thought I saw rumours of a stomach bug in the camp somewhere on here, but don’t know if those were substantiated.

 

[Hamilton]

I can’t see an offer coming in for Ayari, but Carlos, yes. Hopefully it’s nothing.

I thought we brought in some German super doctors, not Harold Shipman?

 

[Albion my Albion]

I’m not sure what the soaurce was.

Young German bloke said something. Wouldn't trust him though as he didn't look like he knew what the f*** was going on.

 

[GT49er]

Talksport commentary stated injury. For both of them.

Fab said this before the game on tnt.

The sickness bug is the MYTH

 

[Guinness Boy]

Injured. There’s no sickness bug.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Rumour is morale is so bad that the lads took it upon themselves to put on a suprise January pantomime for all the staff.

The midfield pair instantly volunteered to join forces a play the horse.

However they weren't to know that, in yet another sign of his appalling management, FAB decided to tie in the show with a trip to a banana packing centre to show the benefit of teamwork and trusting the process.

A nightmare scenario ensued as the horse accidently entered the discarded faulty banana skin department....

I've just watched the pre presser again. No issues mentioned for Baleba or Ayari, only a general comment about minor muscle problems (no names mentioned) but "should be fine".

 

[The Optimist]

Any indication of how long they’ll be out?

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Any indication of how long they’ll be out?

Minor injuries, three to four months.

It was on the pitch pre match he mentioned it

 

[raymondo]

It was on the pitch pre match he mentioned it

Ok, thank you

 

[The Fits]

How the hell do they get injuries between the press conference and match? What would they do in that time? Travel and a bit of a light run out? Our injuries are utterly insane.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Minor muscle injuries seems to be code for 'left out for discipline reasons '

Highly doubt that both of them are actually injured

Not always, it sometimes also turns out to be code for “will be out for the rest of the season”
