It took 9 months for me to get a scan for my meniscus tear and that was after a private referral via my physio.
Was this today, yesterday or Monday?

What news of Julio?
The Athletic quite often has exclusive news about the Albion and always has well sourced news (compared to others) - with Andy's reporting - but to expect it or Andy to lead on every single story about the club and compare it to 10 years ago or even 5 years ago - when the Argus pretty much had that monopoly -is a bit of stretch. They are now arguably one of the top clubs in the world for interest with scores of journalists reporting on their every move in every corner of the globe every minute of the day - so others will sometimes get scoops etc. PS: you certainly don't get pieces like this about Caicedo and his replacement - on the club channels >> https://theathletic.com/4770338/2023/08/18/brighton-caicedo-replacement-premier-league/ or https://theathletic.com/4771295/2023/08/23/chelsea-liverpool-caicedo-lavia/

Well, I imagine they could be swiftly refuted if there was no truth at all in themThis morning Andy Naylor said the reports coming out of Paraguay couldn't yet be substantiated (this was in reply to a comment after am Athletic article).
Basically, as yet, nobody's got a Scooby.
To be fair Icy - its because he has a suspected meniscus tear or strain and given some of us have had likewise so have direct experience of likely recovery times - then its worth sharing.How has this turned into a thread about fan injuries? Only on NSC

there's an eye witness on Twitter - who looks credible - who says he saw him (on Wednesday) at the Amex on crutches and wearing a knee brace. -presumably to have his scan. Club unlikely to. say anything until RDZ briefed who will presumably share that update at the pre West Ham press conference . Certainly not going to provide a running commentary.Well, I imagine they could be swiftly refuted if there was no truth at all in them
Why? The club pay no attention to Twitter rumours, why should they? They’d have to employ someone full time the amount of BS about us that appears online!Well, I imagine they could be swiftly refuted if there was no truth at all in them

They did - once- and it was extra-ordinary stuff. They've not done it before or since. They don't provide running commentary like this on injuries or transfers. Although RDZ is a lot more forthcoming in press conferences than either Potter or Hughton.The club responded to twitter rumours during the Cucurella transfer.

Only because Chelsea jumped the gun.The club responded to twitter rumours during the Cucurella transfer.
Indeed.Just because he is in a knee brace and on crutches, that doesn't necessarily mean it is a serious injury.
We've seen players leave the Amex after games in protective boots only for them to play the following weekend. If there is any potential injury, they will look to stabilise the affected area to minimise the risk of further damage until they have the results of the full assessment.
Let's just hope that for Julio, it is more of a precaution.
