    Please don't be true

    Hopefully not true but the silence from da cloob is deafening......
    Why would the club respond to the rumour though? We won’t get anything official until match day.

    Our luck is so bad. We need to wrap all our players in cotton wool or something.

    IF IF this is true then Bowyer needs to sign Ince NOW, even if it's for the short term .. at a pinch Bauer can fill a very defensive midfield role and Sarr can play at the back

    OK,which one of you ran over that big bag of black cats?
    Piss any of our traveller friends off in the last year or so?

    We are doomed!

    Looks like we need Bowyer and Jackson to both register as players again.

    Bugger, I've just realised its all my fault, I put a curse on the club when we went to Selhurst, and I forgot to remove it!. Sorry everyone!

    would much prefer those two the other way around. Either way that's not a serious solution, need Ince to sign.
  • As much as it is luck there is weight to pay to the fact this lot will be overworked or at least not resting sufficiently, it can be above coincidental when there's a constant string of injuries. (May well be horrible luck in a bad challenge during training, don't know the details).

    But, battling top half of League One. Ffs.

    That's the sort of thing a club with ambitions of promotion might do, replace players. I thought that under Bow we will be competitive whatever the result, but now I'm expecting Saturday to be like the televised Swindon debacle missing our 3 international call-ups.

    We get the not wishing to spend because of selling, but stop the promotion waffle because actually it's cringe worthy and embarrassing.

    Perhaps the football bubble is clouding people's reality.

    Other way round for me - Sarr can play the midfield role from what we have seen.
  • Speedy recovery JFC
    Hopefully there will be a Charlton team to which you can return when you’re healed
  • FIngers crossed it is not as bad as first feared hopefully a strain rather than rupture. We look so lacking in quality and depth.

    I was thinking back a few months when after his injury Robo brought Bauer on from the bench in a game or two to tighten up the midfield defence .. but on reflection you're probably right .. after seeing Sarr's goal he could be a revelation away from defence where he won't have the worries and cares .. anyway let's hope that Caskey is just a short term absentee

    Maybe but then who else can be reserve centre half?

    the key is/will be signing a midfielder, Ince .. ANYbody with a bit of expereince
  • Red Henry is usually right with any info. I'm sure the medical team's assessment at the time, if its happened, would be spot on, but the club will certainly wait for him to have had a scan before releasing any news.

  • Having done both of my ACLs I would be very surprised if they could tell before a scan. It is incredibly painful however doesn't look too bad to look at initially.

    Until it's officially confirmed, shouldn't the thread title be changes to "may have done his ACL"?

    They must be running out of nails to put in our coffin! Who will even play in midfield alongside Aribo? Lapslie I guess.

    I knew when I did mine it was bad. There is a very distinct "popping" sound accompanied by easily the worst pain I've ever felt.

    Depending on swelling, they could conduct a Lachman test fairly quickly, so you don't necessarily need a scan.

    Anyway, this is all conjecture - PLEASE can this be totally untrue...

    This can also galvanise a squad too.

    When i did my second one i knew but only because I had experienced the exact same pain when i did my first one. I would be surprised if they gave any diagnosis before scan, especially to then start telling people he has done his ACL when in fact they may be wrong. Clutching at straws maybe, praying it they have got it wrong!

    I admire your positivity.
  • Wonder who'll take the corners and free-kicks (Aribo? Lapslie?) if JFC is out for the season
