Left-back Stephen Ward will be assessed, but wingers Will Buckley (hamstring) and Andrea Orlandi (thigh) are both unavailable.

Do you not think that the club's medical staff should be just a bit embarrassed?

About what?

They do their best to speed up the recovery of players from injuries. It doesn't mean they have a definitive cure for long-term or chronic problems.

Other clubs seem to.

 

[TomandJerry]

I suggest trying acupuncture

 

[saafend_seagull]

Orlandi will be gone in the summer, one injury prone player who can be replaced by someone that actually plays.

Not as embarrassed as you, over such a silly comment.

Genuine LOL, thank you

Anyone know how many FULL games these two have played between them this season? It's going to be shockingly low I know and however good they are I think we all know that both are sick notes. Sadly we do not have enough quality players to have these two missing as many games as they do. If we can get decent money for Buckley I think we should move him on and let another club try and sort his hamstrings. Orlandi should be released unless he agrees to a paid to play only contract.

Yeah that bloody surgeon that repaired my snapped achillies said 12 weeks and it took 16. He should be struck off the useless dick. I won't thank him I tell you.

 

[The Legend that IS Lawro]

I suggest trying acupuncture

Or even a brisk walk across the South Downs amongst the flora and fauna of Sussex. That'll cure 'em.

 

[One Love]

Oh dear, same old, same old, how dare you raise a criticism of anything to do with our club.

Thanks Acker

You would think, bearing in mind the club doctor is also the Sky Cycling Team doctor (I believe) someone would devise a pre-season program of training to strengthen up a certain area of Wills body that is always injured - his hamstrings ?

Twisted ankles springs to mind with those two.

Or at least wait until he can sprint full pace at training regularly before starting him in a game.

It seems to me that all is ok until he starts to hit form and run flat out......then he has to come off again. He would never play again if we waited until he could run at full pace regularly before putting him in the team. It's all going a bit Owenesque IMO.

But then again I'm no doctor and this assumption is from watching and groaning when he limps off.

 

[Don Quixote]

We have so many players who can't walk onto the pitch without getting injured. Must be the grass.
