    January Window

    We need to give Andreu a chance Surgeons say full recovery from an ACL takes 18 months Andreu came back after 9 months or so and was thrown straight in as we were so short of numbers pre season Then he had a cyst that needed to be cut out so he's only now coming back from that setback I hope he...

    Thomas injury

    If they have a head injury how long does it take for them to come back? The FA and Premier League have set out clear 'return to play' guidelines for players who are suspected to have suffered concussion. Essentially, no player will be allowed to return for a competitive game for at least six...

    Don't know the full details but it's likely he's been stood down for a period under the concussion rules

    Thomas injury

    On a serious note Thomas had stitches in a cut to his head so shouldn't be out long term It looks more likely he'll stay with us for the season now so fingers crossed

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Southend United Match Thread - Saturday 29th Dec

    McCullum is an overlapping type full back with plenty of pace and a decent cross from the U23 games I've seen him in I'd guess he was a winger in junior football Westbrook was outstanding in the U23 game v Burnley at the Ricoh a few months back where we came back from 2 down to win 3 2 Played in...

    Thomas injury

    I'd heard he was keen to go back to Derby if he had a chance of making the match day squad You can't blame the lad and I hope he's ok

    Stephen Ireland

    Stephen Ireland strikes me as a troubled individual Probably not a good signing for any club Perhaps another example of what happens when a young player gets too much too soon

    Tom Bayliss - show me the money.

    I remember very similar sentiments about James Maddison - he wouldn't cut it in the Championship, was over rated, too big for his boots, etc. He hasn't done too badly has he?

    Jodi Jones ACL

    It's straight-forward If Jones comes back at 12 months he has 6 months to earn a new deal either here or elsewhere His current deal expires in June 2020 It was the same deal he came on as an 18 year old and and is partly based on appearances I believe

    Jodi Jones ACL

    He was very down about it when it was first diagnosed as a recurrence especially as the initial assessment indicated it might be a cartilage However once he got a second opinion and it was decided that Andy Williams would do the op he became more positive If anyone can recover from this setback...

    U23 v Palace

    I suspect the trialist may be a more senior guy SBD If Burge was injured we'd be struggling with Adai as number one and just Bilson as back up

    Jodi Jones ACL

    Ironically we saw a very similar scenario with Junior Brown He did his ACL after playing very well for Shrewsbury They offered him a new contract after his expired just as he was making a his comeback but we made a better offer If there isn't a fee involved clubs will take a chance It takes 18...

    Hard to say Jones first happened at Stevenage Second at the Ricoh when he was wearing blades May have been a factor but who knows?
