Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! 05:37 - Mar 19 with 6826 views | numptydumpty | Sorry I not followed what injuries players have and when they likely to be back. Paal ?? Clarke Salter ?? Balogun ?? Laird ?? Kakay ?? Sadly now possibly out. Johansen ?? Ie can only play 30 minutes Taylor Richards ?? Struggling mentally so I understand Amos ?? Is back but had so many career threatening injuries Chair ?? Willock ?? Tyler Roberts ?? Back at Leeds to recuperate Armstrong ?? Ie never starts I appreciate Ainsworth is not revealing anything by way of supposedly not giving opposition too much information but I think as fans we are entitled to be aware of what exactly are the issues with the players out and what the time scales are for returning. Us guessing that some players have said they not going to play again this season, we honestly need to know and what has been said. Basically anyhow not saying anything isn't making any difference because the team we are managing to put out currently is not able to perform anyhow so preventing such information from coming out makes no difference for the opposition. When are we going to know the FULL truth about the injuries. If they are all genuine though, and I believe probably perhaps 50% are, seriously all this data analysis on bringing players back in correct time, to prevent further damage, CONSIDERING we have all this EXTRA so called help WHY is our INJURY CRISIS the WORST its EVER been !!! Problem being it will say to fans, they not that some players aren't wishing to play !! And injuries have been exaggerated !!! I have never known a squad like this one that has over half the squad seemingly permanently injured or not 100%. Players playing that out of form Dickie Dunne Dykes Lowe Martin Adomah But think fans deserve the truth. I think truth will come out but will be withheld until the end of the season !!!

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 06:48 - Mar 19 with 5154 views | QPROslo | I have no reason to believe any of the injured or sick players aren't in fact sick or injured. Accusations that some or all are faking it seemd based on speculation and is not helping at all, especially the players concerned. | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 07:31 - Mar 19 with 5094 views | LadbrokeR | The question is what’s to be gained by not informing the fans. I suppose when some of these players are fit there’s the element of surprise against the opposition. That said every team in the division fancies themselves against us and we’re getting ironed so regularly that this non disclosure thing seems meaningless. | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 08:43 - Mar 19 with 4947 views | gazza1 | Personally, I just do not know any more, this stuff never went on when I played non league stuff.....I never thought players would get away with feigning injury on block especially with all this medical stuff, doctors, sports scientists and medical staff, etc, etc but I am being told that they are. I just do not get it at all. | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 08:55 - Mar 19 with 4920 views | bosh67 | Willock has dreadful problems with his hamstrings. Really unfortunate. His loss of form before the latest injury seems to be down to lack of confidence in his hamstrings. The reality of the situation I think is that we don’t have players who don’t want to play. We brought in many players at the start of the season who had disastrous injury records. | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 13:36 - Mar 19 with 4686 views | terryb | Gazza, honestly? I know it went on in my days, which started earlier than your's! Playing Saturday & Sunday, come towards the end of the season & you knew that you had missed out on winning the league, the amount of "little knocks" took great effect. Just a week or two (maximum) of not playing had us ready to play again & ready to give everything. Funnily, none of us took these rests when Championships could still be won! | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 13:39 - Mar 19 with 4675 views | Northernr | I suspect you'll get the last half dozen games out of Balogun because he'll need a contract somewhere for next season. He'll be a big improvement on what's there atm and there'll be a lot of "if only he'd been fit all season" around. | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 13:46 - Mar 19 with 4632 views | TacticalR | The whole point is that it does not matter whether they are injured or whether they are just saying they are injured - they are no good to us either way. (I am talking about Beale's intake here, not Willock and Chair). | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 14:15 - Mar 19 with 4559 views | Benny_the_Ball | GA is not fooling any opposition manager by refusing to discuss injuries. He also didn't help his cause by telling the fans that the "cavalry is coming" when they're yet to appear. Said cavalry was needed for the run of games in March, particularly the 6-pointers against Rotherham, Blackpool, and Birmingham (we lost all 3). If the cavalry do arrive (and that's a big if), they'll need to hit the ground running and secure results in far more difficult fixtures. Never has an international break felt more timely or critical. [Post edited 19 Mar 2023 14:16]

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 14:49 - Mar 19 with 4514 views | gazza1 | Yes, honestly, I do not get it......I do not know how professional footballers are allowed to get away with not playing if they are fit, 5 or 10 players at a time - shocking. Interestingly, I do not know anyone who feigned injury when I played, beginning, end or middle of the season, big games, league games or cup. Interesting that you know that you played before I did!!!! How do you know that?? | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 15:12 - Mar 19 with 4475 views | terryb | Because I started playing adult football at the age of 15 in 1967. I think you posted that you were in your early 20's when you joined Windsor under Brian Caterer. Mentioning Brian, a lot of his team mates went missing from games after the FA Amateur Cup final defeat in 1968! | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 16:24 - Mar 19 with 4375 views | Andybrat | I think all of us would love to be professional football players and note a number of those on this thread have obviously played to a higher level than me. Apart from Roberts ( speak to Leeds fans) the others are obviously all genuinely injured. Surely you desire to play in front of a crowd each week and the buzz of playing is why you do what you do, it’s the dream whether at Rangers or whoever. Even with the change of managers surely the above still applies. So, despite all the comments I actually believe the injuries are genuine and if they happened to all come back st the same time happy days. Shows what confidence can do to players also, Rob Dickie is the obvious one here, which is sad. | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 16:42 - Mar 19 with 4331 views | colinallcars | So half a dozen fit, young, professional athletes fall victim to invisible injuries, at the same football club, all at the same time ? Interested in a used car sir ? | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 16:42 - Mar 19 with 4330 views | numptydumpty | So if they are all generally injured. Why is this happening ?? Over half the first team squad !!!! | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 17:12 - Mar 19 with 4281 views | connell10 | Mate I'm sorry but I think some are faking it, they don't wanna be here . Do I have proof no I don't it's a hunch . But the players out are all Beale the boils . Apart from Willock and Chair ...it stinks like a rotten fish. | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 17:20 - Mar 19 with 4255 views | TacticalR | I don't think the cavalry is coming. The existing troops will have to hold the fort. | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 17:28 - Mar 19 with 4240 views | Andybrat | Yes please anything of a 1976 vintage? I know I’m gullible but they are living the dream, you’d think they actually want to live it? Is it the whole youth thing in that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone? | | | |
Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 22:35 - Mar 19 with 4049 views | RangersDave | Anyone hear the comments on the radio about Spuds last night? mostly about prima donnas that act injured, stay out of the team and dont care or want to be involved, just want to take a wedge home. Quite some interesting comments on that show (i caught it by accident mind) and they also played the managers comments about his team..... not good at all. | |

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 23:42 - Mar 19 with 3934 views | Benny_the_Ball | "Apart from Roberts ( speak to Leeds fans) the others are obviously all genuinely injured." Obvious based on what? I would argue that the evidence paints a different story. Most of the players currently on the treatment table were officially side-lined shortly after Beale left with niggles such as calf strains, hamstrings and other minor muscle injuries. Fast forward several months and they're still MIA. [Post edited 20 Mar 2023 0:11]

Who exactly is "injured" and when WILL they return - THE TRUTH !! on 00:09 - Mar 20 with 3895 views | Benny_the_Ball | Given that the club has stopped provided updates on injuries, any assertions that these players have all been genuinely injured is also speculation. | | | |
