BBM injury update 12:37 - Sep 25 with 5679 views | jacko_dale | Humphrys, Amankwaah and Baah all out for 6-8 weeks. McLaughlin is doubtful. O'Connell's injury was a knock to the knee but there's a chance he plays. Anyone in the Suffolk area with a spare pair of boots free at 3pm tomorrow? Edit: just read the match preview at the top of the page! [Post edited 25 Sep 2020 12:38]

BBM injury update on 12:51 - Sep 25 with 4467 views | D_Alien | Suspect Beesley will start on the bench Not having played a competitive game for six months, there's the danger that he'll be tearing around and overstretching himself (it could be argued that's what Humphrys did) and picking up the kind of injury we just can't afford, especially with the faster pace he'll have to contend with We need him to stay focused on what he was brought here for at the right end of the pitch, unless of course, we're defending a lead in the last quarter... | |

BBM injury update on 14:03 - Sep 25 with 4281 views | Yorkshire_Dale | It's one step forward,one step back for us right now.....we had the same problem last season with key injuries. I know it gives the other few players a chance but these are not the influential players we need. Humphrys already a huge loss. As for McLaughlin crocked again, what next? | | | |

Can a lengthy foot injury lead to the risk of other parts of the leg getting injured even when the foot has recovered? | |

Possibly. There's always a tendency to overcompensate during recovery by straining other muscles to protect the injured foot, which can have a knock-on effect when those muscles are being used subsequently However, sports professionals should have physiotherapists working with them versed in anticipating and mitigating for this, as far as possible | |

BBM injury update on 15:46 - Sep 25 with 3949 views | springfieldparka | Given the length of Amankwaah's absence , the ongoing doubts around McLaughlin , and possibly heightened risk in relation to O'Connell , is there a stronger case maybe developing to argue consideration of a 3 month deal being put on the table for Wheater , mainly from a pragmatic viewpoint ? | | | |

BBM talked about paying a fee for players on small wages rather than big waves for free transfers. He's also keen to sign young players. Experienced as he is, I don't see Wheater as being a likely fit for that model. | |

I suppose the likelihood he wouldn't have been able to do any on the feet training whilst injured. When he did get on the pitch, accelerating, decelerating, twisting and turning there was always going to be an elevated risk of injury compared to a player, who hadn't been out for a long time with a foot injury. | |

I'd expect to see either McNulty/Dunne at left back, or a a switch to a back 3. | |

BBM injury update on 19:13 - Sep 25 with 3442 views | Shun | Pretty devastating. We got horrendous luck with injuries last season, with the worst injury crisis I’ve known at a club. But then to be two league games into a season and have another injury crisis, albeit not as bad as last year, makes me tend to think that it’s less bad luck and more a patten. Is the training schedule right? Although I suppose coming out of furlough so late and rushing to get the squad up to speed so quickly won’t have done their bodies much good. | | | |

Last season concerns were expressed on here that the training camps prepared the players to hard and that caused early wear and tear. This season BBM has said he understands that the players fitness is behind some other teams right now, but he still wants to manage the build up to full fitness as he is guarding against stressing the squad. Both approaches have yielded injuries. Personally I just feel it’s a contact sport where young males are in competition to make an impact. Hill and by default BBM also sought a competitive environment in training, and I can’t see that changing nor should it. The competitive mindset is a fundamental that needs to be maintained. | | | |
BBM injury update on 09:32 - Sep 26 with 3039 views | James1980 | Last year I did one of those comprehensive DNA tests amongst other things it tests risk of injury. Mine came back as high including risk of ACL injuries and cramps. Do football clubs use such tests when assessing potential players and if the player genetically has a higher risk of injury might a club that can pick and choose be more likely to pass on signing them, unless they are exceptionally gifted. | |

Look on the bright side James. If it had been a high risk of tennis elbow you might have had to retire the paddle and stick to ticketing work | |
