Richardson's deal is being extended until January. Not fit for Saturday but hopefully will feature in the Cup games that follow.
Alcock stepping up training and also may be fit for the Cup games.
Apologies to anyone for whom this is old news.
Comes from the DFP.
-
Update from the press conference. Alcock could return on Saturday so must be ahead of schedule. Marosi a doubt. Fitness test tomorrow.
-
Cedric also fit. His toe must heal quicker than Dany's.
-
The Grand Canyon will heal quicker than a certain person's toe..!
-
I have a feeling healed toe or not it could be that Ceddie may well be benched for Saturday along with 1 or 2 others if DF stands by what he said to DFP. He reckons he has given a number of players chances even though they have made mistakes but enough is enough.
I reckon it could revolve around Alcock being fit or not Lets see!
-
Alcock coming back will be a big boost to the defensive quality.
Obviously he won't be 100% fit but may be good enough for an hour.
-
Alcock will be the best full back in this league by a lpng way. Just hope he gets played there rather than centre back. A back 4 of Ca,MB, AB,CE will be my choice.

Agree with the first 3 but no way should evina get in our strongest back 4.

I have seen the comments "having a pop" at those who have duplicated posts and imo it reinforces what I said t'other day
For injuries (to name but one) we should have a sticky and post Players name and any relevant info. It would be the "go to" resource and I for one would welcome it

[/quot] Because he's our best lb imo and is also not as bad as some say. Again just my opinion. He's got his faults just like all players in the 4th tier. Thats what I think some fans are forgetting. He's a player playing in L2. If he was better he would be gone. We've been spoilt over the last 7-10 years and its showing now big time.

Ferguson seems to like to pick Alcock in a three at the back. For me he is better as a full back, not brilliant going forward but as near to an 'old fashioned' full back as we have.

24 hours on I thought what would the situation if I looked at a USA Team and / or Sport for similar information
and having looked at Toronto Blue Jays (Canada I know) there was loads of official and unofficial information
So I looked at "American Football" and found this :

OK the terminology would need to be amended but if you use the drop down boxes you can pick a time right back to Preseason and see who was injured with "what" and as its default is the current week you see at a glance the CURRENT situation
It is a simple Database and it would be fairly easy to do
-
Thing is, in the NFL the teams are required by the League to provide a report on the injury status of players. No such requirement exists in football and I can imagine the howls of outrage from managers if such a thing was proposed.
You rely a lot on the local media asking the right questions at press conferences. Quite often long term injuries get forgotten about - ATS being a case in point.
-
Agree but in the Premier League the people who "play" Fantasy Football like to know who is injured and for how long and there are loads of things like this available
http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php#c2
I am not advocating one way or another just that very simply "we" could get intelligence from the Club and Local press even "inside" information and have one resource so we don't have 4 threads on Danny's toe and even worse still the squabbling and p*** taking re who posted what and when
Your last point would be sorted because of course in the Jets example he would be there in the current week along with Luke M too.

Alcock will be a standout in this division. We are a left back and a front man away from having a very good squad. Especially when the new keeper comes good.
