We know Skintgaard doesn't listen to what he doesn't want to hear but there are no rumours of dissenting voices when he came back. Rose tinted specs are freely available all over football and remain popular. I'm not saying we should hold out for any sort of fee.0 -
The anticipation this week re; an update on his injury is palpable after we found out he was running on grass last week. Will it be
- continuing to make progress and taking it slow, we mustn’t rush him back
- taking part in some light contact work
- no update
- Chuks felt a tweak somewhere so as a precaution we’ve quarantined him at home and told him to wait until spring next year, just to be on the safe side0 -

This saga is about as interesting as the rest of our season2

It is interesting though as I think this is a perfect example of things not being right in the club. You are always taking a chance with players getting injured but with Chucks absolutely anyone could see clear as day that this would happen. Who on earth pushed for the deal he got in terms of contract length needs their head examining! This might be the straw that broke the camels back for TS in terms of transfers. If I was him I would be thinking "fuck that" £350k down the tubes plus wages ! We will be lucky to get 12cgames out of the bloke this season imo0

But, if as we have done you make him your second choice center forward when your first choice center forward doesn't fit the system, then you have made a bad mistake.7 -

I think that today makes it 10 weeks out for Chuks following the calf injury. Quite some time and just bad news for all concerned including him.
We're all tired to count the number of points we might have gained if he wasn't injured as we've played that game too often the past few years with several players.1 -

Maybe he does better than Stockley, but do we really expect him to be charging around closing people down, etc - especially with his injury record?3 -
A hard hearted comment I know, but are we approaching the stage where the club should be recognising it’s own mistake and seeking to come to some sort of termination of contract agreement with Chuks? Costly, but he is presumably taking up a lot of ongoing medical resource as things stand. And he is taking up a squad place that could be filled. I’m genuinely sorry for Chuks. He appears to be a good guy and, if fit, he’d add something without exactly being a world beater. However the saga will just go on and on and the false hope is a drain in itself. Time to draw a line?3

Out for another week at least. Laughing stock of a club.0

It's so frustrating because Chucks would make such a difference to us, but he's either made of glass or scared
I really think his problem might be mental rather than physical now, in which case he'd be better off retiring for his own wellbeing2 -

In fact the only player I can think of in the past few years who would fit that system is Lyle Taylor, mobile and can score. Maybe Grant as well. In a year it could be Leaburn if we have not blown him up by then by overplaying him.0 -
Of course none of us really know the extent of Chuks' issues but what we do know is the injury that was so minor it couldn't even be called an injury has kept him out for 10 weeks so far. I sadly expected this to happen from the start which probably says more about how much I am pissed off with the club and I am not remotely interested or believing in anything it tells me. I just watch the games and judge for myself.0

So if he is, possibly, returning to full training the back end of next week we still won’t see him for a couple of weeks yet.2

He’s had his calf injury so long, it will so become a cow injury.44
