'Albion injury woes increase'

Dean Cox (knee) and Adam Hinshelwood (calf) picked up injuries in training this morning to join Albion's incredible casualty list.

Cox is expected to recover for Saturday's trip to MK Dons but Hinshelwood is almost certain to miss out.

Albion now have 13 players injured and Tommy Elphick is suspended.

They are Al Bangura (knee), Colin Hawkins (calf), Glenn Murray (stomach), Nicky Forster (knee), John Sullivan (ankle), Matt Heath (groin), Gary Hart (calf), Kerry Mayo (groin), Gary Borrowdale (calf), Calvin Andrew (hamstring, Sam Gargan (cartilage), plus Cox and Hinshelwood.

Jake Robinson is back for treatment from Aldershot

f***ing season is CURSED

 

[Walkers Cajun Squirrel]

Why is Andrew still here?? Why don't we send him back. He isn't going to be fit by the end of the season is he.

 

[jordanseagull]

Just to add, i can assure you this means jakey will be recalled. Surely.

No mention of McNulty, so I make that 14 out injured.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

I don't believe it. Surely Mayo has never moved fast enough to damage his groin...

Seriously, how many of these players have been injured in training? Half have not even been featuring.

 

[Mendoza]

Forster could be out for the rest of the season, so Davies best be turning good!!

 

[fire&skill]

Don't panic. At least we're not Southampton.

The last line before the link in your opening post says Jake is back for treatment, so looks like he is injured too.

There must be something going seriously wrong with the way we train, or it is just really really bad luck.

 

[Billy the Fish]

We're pretty f***ed aren't we.

 

[Djmiles]

We're pretty f***ed aren't we.

Pretty much.

This season is CURSED I Tell you!! CURSED!!

I think he is back getting treatment at Palarse but could in theory still play for us.

He isn't, he's back at Palace after being ruled out for the rest of the season.

the nail in the coffin may have just been hit !
very sad state of affairs

There would appear to be something wrong somewhere - this looks from the outside as being more than coincidence.

I've said before somewhere in these pages that certain clubs, Newcastle and West Ham spring to mind, where the injury list is always way too high as a proportion of the squad. Now, obviously there are many possible factors (training regime, medical staff, signing older players etc.), but something is wrong.

There is some basic science/maths behind it, in that teams who start out with a few injuries are likely to do worse because they're missing key players. Then when you're playing badly, injuries for some reason take longer to heal- when things are going well, everyone wants to be out there, to be part of the success, and not to lose their place in the team. They'll play through minor niggles, and ignore them, whereas when you're on a losing streak, they might not risk a game when not 100% fit.

Players who are in the side over-exert themselves because they're getting desperate to win, and pick up more injuries, perpetuating the crisis. And then there's the freak injuries like the sort McNulty acquired- if the team were promotion contenders, that would be overlooked to a degree as some unfortunate event; whereas when you're struggling to save your ass from relegation, it assumes catastrophic proportions, you notice it that much more, and are far easier convinced that it only happens to your team.

Alternatively, perhaps the training is just crap......?
