Cramp

[bigal]

Can any one remember another rovers player not so long back
suffering with cramp.I think it was Shackell sod said in an
interview that it could be caused by supplements players were
taking,seeing Marti's has just rejoined us it could be its the
supplements he is taking .What does any one else think

[DRNaith]

It can also be caused by someone using prolonged use of a muscle beyond it's recent normal use.  This is sometimes evident when teams are taken to extra time.

Martis hadn't played many games recently when he came to us, I think it might just be that he isn't \"match fit\".

Maybe he should have more salt in his diet

Is his 'injury' confirmed as just cramp and is he thus likely to play at least an hour tomorrow?

We know how SOD likes to play centre-backs and see if they can last an hour  

Otherwise we are likely to see a strange and lightweight back four for a blood and thunder (well hopefully) derby match

[DRNaith]

I think if he can't make the game we'd have a back four of:


LB  Chambers
CB  Hird
CB  O'Connor
RB  Dumbaya

We'd look quite thin on the bench though too.

Time for a emergency loan deal?

I wondered that as well

Me too,If we do I expect it to be a RB or LB because although I think he has some great attributes and looks like a very good prospect if he learns to adapt other sides of his game like his defensive side under SOD/ROK,I think he may struggle with a FULL 90 mins.I don't believe he is not ready yet.I also would think it would be a bit easier to loan a LB or RB than a CB.If we can only loan a LB then Chambo can switch to RB.
