Players often have insurance for career ending injuries
The player would be the beneficiary
Clubs usually don't have such cover - the premiums would be unaffordable
Players often have insurance for career ending injuriesIt just doesn't read right to me that people are asking if the club is insured for his contract etc. I'm usually whatever's read on here is fine, as what right minded footballer would read here, but it's probably not the best morale booster if such things did filter through!
I think you might have missed the point of my post tbfPlayers often have insurance for career ending injuries

I know the lad who tweeted it who has confirmed it is true
Bruised coccyx (your tailbone, situated at the bottom of your spine) is seriously fuckin' painful but does ease off after a while.
Should definitely be a red card offence to deliberately impede or knock someone in mid air without attempting to play the ball, so dangerousWhen a player jumps for a header they are in control of their movements and land in control. Introduce other players and there are unknowns but generally still in relative control so a player can land safely.
Last night was a deliberate attempt to send a player completely out of control while midair, while making no attempt to challenge for the ball, with the intention of the player becoming injured.
That is an accident waiting to happen, not a freak accident.

Bit like getting rogered in the nuts then.

Appeared as though he was holding his pelvis though. Or is that all connected - i.e. radiating pain?

Only because the doctors on here diagnosed him as pretty much dead.Seems miraculous if so
tbf we still don't know. I'll wait for the club to update!Only because the doctors on here diagnosed him as pretty much dead.

Good to hear, but I'm not sure the mere fact that he is on his feet alters anything. Even if he's fractured a bone in his spine, I'm guessing they'd probably be encouraging some normal movement. Is there any benefit in lying in a hospital bed?
Keeping everything crossed that there is no long-term damage. I'd gladly take a defeat to bloody Maidstone for that.
We have no idea what it is yet.Broken pelvis ? 4-6 months and 1 in 3 cases are fatal.
I'd have suggested it's like Anal with a rattail file but if you have better knowledge of being rogered in the nuts, I'll stand by your better example
LOL, and NO! That's why it was merely a suggestion. I've landed badly on a few metal fences before and they hurt a lotAnd you have knowledge of being banged up the arse with a rattail file? I’m not judging.
I'm saying we have no idea what the damage is, and that even sending Saka home wouldn't rule out some sort of fracture. Yet people have now diagnosed a bruised coccyx! I'm glad he's not so badly hurt that he's on his feet, but that's a far cry from saying nothing's broken and he's fine.Errr, yes !
Broken or fractured bones need to mend/knit. They do that by staying next to each other. It's why broken arms and legs are held together with plaster casts. Pelvis could be plastered but if it's more discreet (chipped pelvic bone or coccyx bruising), you have to grin and bear it. Movement would normally come later to ensure muscles don't seize up.
To be fair it's second hand info from another lad i know who told him who is very unlikely to have just made it upAnd can he be seen as reliable or take this with a pinch of salt?
I never even saw the injury so have no idea what his problem is. I was just responding to your comment about staying in a hospital bed having any benefit. Depends on the injury. Some are fine to be plastered and the patient released. Others are by their nature unable to be dressed and the patient needs to be kept still. And hospital beds have air filled mattresses which can help with hip/back injuries.I'm saying we have no idea what the damage is, and that even sending Saka home wouldn't rule out some sort of fracture.

Hope that’s true
