Unfortunately i do have 'Redknapp knee' and if a poor run of results deserves it then i will have to pull that joker and make my excuses!
I snapped my right knee anterior cruciate ligament 12 years ago and have a major tear in the other, have been told a replacement knee in my 50's is likely (i'm 49 now!) is there anyone who played regular football for a long period who doesnt have knee problems? Everyone i speak to of my age about their playing days and the chat is 'miniscus, cartilage, ligaments' etc, the old dudes when i was younger never seemed to have the same list?

Just because Gibraltar was an irritating boil on Franco's arse, that doesn't make them an island.

Congratulations, Karl. Are you still allowed to post on LFW? I didn't think we did people with actual credibility.

Charge a levy on the BBC film crews that come to make those Orkney archaeology docos that I watch completely stunned. Put them damn TV licence fees to work!

Using the word 'snap' in relation to Karl's cruciates may not be the most sensitive option - good luck with your op though, Brian.

With Orkney's financial woes, i fear that the shores of those islands will be turned into a winkle-free desert!

Thanks, man.

'Wear and tear', they said. Which is code for 'old carcass'. I blame it on all those times I had to cover for you when we played centre-back together.

So me and Brian are kindred spirits, surely no one else has had to cover for the 'Manx Caesar'? (we all know which Caesar i mean).
Good luck with the knee Brian.
I'm praying Chris Bass will give you a call up Distort, if we do play the IOM of course.

Congrats Karl. Apparantely the interview process consisted of interviews with you and Chris Ramsey. You must have one persuasive smile Karl!

I'm off to put a fiver on you being next QPR manager just so we can see you at 100-1 in the BetFair stakes.

Good Luck and keep us posted...

In terms of funding, may I make the following suggestion: between you/us etc. why can't we try arrange a friendly between QPR and your lot?

I bid you Good Luck as well Brian. What exactly is the op?!

It's now over 6 months since I did my ACL. Had the op the following month and despite physio and now 2 months of gym I'm probably still at least 4 months of gym away from returning to pre ACL mobility and strength.

Thanks man,

Mine's only the meniscus. They're not sure if they can repair until they open it up, but worst case scenario is removal and clean-up and see how long it lasts before the inevitable knee op. I'm 45 and I've done a lot of sports and activities so this is the least that was coming my way.

Hope your recovery goes ok.

Just make sure you have a bloody good preseason, that you play the players in their correct positions and that you win every game playing the free flowing football that the Orkneers are best known for.

Brilliant mate, i'm in Stromness so not far away. PM me if you fancy meeting up etc.

First game is going to be possibly June, this i not the 'Orkney FC' team who compete through the winter but the 'County' team which is representative of the 16 clubs who play in our traditional summer league, I could do without Ramsey style booing if that's what you had in mind though!
I've met three LFW er's in Orkney so keep an eye on here and we might raise a posse in Orkney yet!
