    If you know where this is from - you should know the joke! 😉 Was using extremes to fit the narrative of the post!

    Sakamoto Injury

    I'm not an expert in back injuries, but has likely fractured 3 vertebrae, and went home yesterday with club reps looking after him. Edit - so meant to add that both Saddle and China could be right ...

    Well, we could. After Friday, we could be talking about an embarrassment of epic proportions. One that sticks in the memory, for years! Or the other way round - barnstorming victory, coming back from Friday's season ending defeat!.... I know which one is looking more likely at the moment!🤣🤣🤣

    Sure I read it the other way round somewhere, and that he was available whilst an appeal is heard.... I could be wrong however...

    Opposite way round. Put in an appeal... available until this is heard.

    In terms of other results - yes, but in terms of what happened, how it happened and the effect it could have on the players, plus the Saka injury, it really could, (and I hope it isn't) despite these results, be the end of our playoff hopes. I think next week's game will tell us how our season...

    They are on their way over to watch the Hull game, it's the last thing I need after last night!! I have point blank refused to go next week as don't want to be anywhere near their inane drivel and uniformed BS! FYI, this will be their second game of the season!!

    Sakamoto Injury

    If you are on about Mifsud Vs WBA, he got sent off for an elbow.

    Keep Van Ewijk, Torp and OHare well away from this one. Play Kitching and Collins with a view to them starting on Friday. Give Kelly some minutes. He'll play Godden (who will look good against them but shouldn't be anywhere near the team on Friday) Unless Robins goes full on batshit and plays a...

    Robins said this was worse than Stoke. More or less said that we could bounce back last year because we were good defensively. He's basically written off our defense with that statement.

    Wouldn't say it would be rest, more protecting players from the chance of more injuries. Got a feeling he'll play Collins, not with a view to him playing Cup games, but to give him a game prior to WBA. Think he'll play Dasilva and we won't see him Vs WBA. Keeps Bidwell fresh. He'll play Godden...

    There's no way we are winning at West Brom with no Sheaf and Sakamoto. We'll beat Maidstone, but there will be changes made and those changes will be with West Brom in mind - there will be no continuity going into that game and we'll get beaten there.

    Sakamoto Injury

    Really sad about this one. It's obvious this is a bad one. He's in a country that he is still getting used to and probably in hospital with few Japanese speaking people around him. Probably knows his season (at least) is done. Gutted for him. Also, my kids love him - they won't see him again for...

    Just listened to Robins. Sounded down, rather than angry. One thing that stuck out was when the game was compared to Stoke last year. He said this was way worse. The thing that stuck out was that he said, when asked about us bouncing back like last year, "yeah, but we were good defensively" -...

    Sakamoto Injury

    Robins says it is a bad one. Will be out for a while. In hospital, hoping it is not as bad as it seems. Was thinking fractured pelvis myself too. (Infamous early champ manager injury - out for 12 months if so)
