Very sweeping statement, by who's account ? what information do you have to back it up ?

Look, I'm just repeating what I've been told.  I'm not about to start detailing who it came from just so you'll believe it.

As far as I'm concerned, don't believe it.  I don't really care.

[/td]I think as PH said a lot of games in a short space of time


Shame he didn't think of that before embarking on that ridiculous number of pre-season games. He's paying for it now Marshall was on fire he will be a big miss and is Bogle really fit or will it be like Robertson at Wembley bringing him back too soon

The Brigg, Ferriby Boston Cleethorpes games were totally unnecessary - 4 or 5 games to look at the squad would have been quite sufficient and were silly risks IMO

Yeah, I agree entirely. The idea of playing as many as two games in one week is clearly crazy as that never occurs during the regular season, does it? What was Hurst thinking?

Thankfully the club are going on the guidance of sports science and professionals with countless years of experience in pre-season rather than that of someone on the wind-up.

It doesn't seem that sports science and countless years of experience has either prevented injuries or fixed them, does it?

I must confess I am disappointed about the injury situation because I thought we had learned the lesson from last year when the same thing happened. The problem isn't so much the number of games, it's the number of players in the squad in certain position. We are simply short on numbers.

OK some injuries may be niggles but we have 3 of the squad who have hardly played in pre-season. The knock on effect of this is that squad rotation in those friendlies was cut back and other players maybe had to be given too much game time.

Having said that it has been an excellent pre-season in many ways. At least 2 young lads have shown they can fit in the squad and the way the team has played and score goals has been refreshing. I just hope we don't get any more injuries and we can do ourselves justice in August this year.
