All have the onset of Weetabix Leg.

Palmer is next, as his is recurring.

Apprently Torp is refusing to train unless 100% fit and staff are losing patience. A move back to Europe potentially on the cards

Our xInjuries must be off the chart, averaging one about every 4 days at the moment

Was hoping the same, but as they are likely to want paying customers at the game, I suspect it may be highlights after the event ( uneducated guess)

I'm fairly confident at least one of these will be full of kids. Can't believe the Werder Bremen and Roma games will both be full strength being so close together, just before the season starts. Either that, or Doug is bringing in 8 new players and uses these to bed them in !

Robins has made a big thing of playing big teams to test ourselves and prepare. No chance one of these is written off with kids

I agree. Seems like the plan for this pre season is play good teams and get as much into pre season as possible. I guess only time will tell whether that is the right strategy, but I'm sure if we're hearing players are tired by September/October or we get above average injuries then finger pointing at the pre season schedule is bound to happen.

What’s wrong with Simms!?

At this rate we’ll be keeping Ben Wilson as back up ST.

With as many games as we have coming up if a player even has so much as a tight calf etc, it's not worth aggravating these sort of things. I'd sooner the club were cautious at this stage. Whether it's correct or not, but one of my City related Watts App groups are talking about 6 weeks for Sheaf (via City related player) P.S. I don't usually post about such things!

I'm suggesting he'll need the likes of Andrews, Obikwu, Dausch and similar to protect some players from risk of injury. $ games in 11 days feels too much to me without serious rotation.

No idea if true but I know for certain that the problem isn’t Torp it’s the person who leaks negative gossip about the players who needs removing. No team or business is successful with that type of person in its midst.

One of saddlebrains poorest ITK moments was this time last pre-season when he said that MVE was a devisive unpopular figure. Remember thinking at the time that such gossip was malicious and served no useful purpose.

These leaks are terrible for the club. I think some posters may have info but then add their own spice.

I have no time for them, they serve no purpose, and most have no substance what so ever; fantasy tangents.

How does he expect to get fit if he doesn't train?

Really? Surely he can still train around his injury?
