Fati coming off hamstring I think

 

[oldboyroy]

Another injury, bloody won't have 11 fit players soon

 

[Insel affe]

our luck is utter Bollox

 

[Deadly Danson]

Our injuries this year have been insane.

They really have. Genuinely, I would take anything above bottom 3 at this stage and a bit of a run in Europe. Every now and again a team has a terrible run with injuries and it can relegate a smallish squad.

Garry Birtles basically saying the same on the stream. He was running back as fast as he can ffs, give him a break. We all know he's not got lightning pace.

R5's point was that Gross made the basic mistake of standing off G-W to start off with.

Get in!!!

Ferguson scores.

 

[Insel affe]

This injury list isn't even funny anymore.

Questions have to be asked don't they? Injures happen, but this many? At this rate?

Do you think the training sessions are too intense

 

[KZNSeagull]

Fergie!!!! 1-1

 

[Swegulls]

Ffs! Steele to come in as a forward in second half.

 

[fruitnveg]

Lovely finish.

 

[Weststander]

Overrated Evan

 

[US Seagull]

Thank f*** for that

 

[Lever]

Goal!

 

[Marty McFly]

Phew! 1-1. Ferguson

 

[Littlemo]

Glad for Ferguson. Excellent

Wheels falling off the RDZ bus

Was just chatting to my brother about this… to be honest it’s less about wheels falling off… as clearly the squad, coaches are together etc. but tactically (at times) we’re being found out … but a large slice of that is down to rhythm, partnerships etc. all being undermined by injuries and a selection/rotation policy that has utterly failed to a.) prevent injuries and b.) to keep us competitive in two comps.

A large part of this is luck, but frankly we lack balance (at times) and we’re all over the shop as a result.

Is this just one of those seasons? An indication of things starting to unravel? I don’t know really, but it’s all a bit meh right now and the spark ️ has gone out.

Where I sit, we have a choice - get behind Roberto… or fail to do and hope our next manager is even better… which is rather forlorn - because if they are, they’d be gone in a season to a ‘big’ club.

I do think we could be more pragmatic on occasion and grind things out, but that’s simply not Roberto.

I guess from the outside we might look a bit like we believe our own hype, and that often leads to a kind of almost indistinguishable lethargy, which at this level will get you punished.

lol - and it’s 1-1… I still think most of the above stands though BUT I’m all for giving Roberto time to genuinely prove his quality.

Fati hamstring. Unbelievable bad luck with injuries!

Oh well - at least we can give him back............
