Perhaps arm and knee bandages will prove to be lucky as well

Terrible news for Pantellis and the Phoenix. He was sounding like he had fitted in well and was one of our better new players.

Well they said 4-6 weeks so it is a bit of an unpleasant surprise.

Oh no! Thats completely unfair on Lucas. Hope he can recover quick.

So does that mean Ward is just injury cover? Or we are looking for someone else?

What I meant by that is that he has a history of knee problems, and he's getting to the age when it can start getting overwhelming. And it appears it has.

Someone suggested we sign Marcus Bent some days back. I'm getting in this thread first with his name now in case we have such bad luck as to lose a founding owner and sign that philandering, under-performing, budget-sucking injury wreck in the same season.

and Paston: side/neck or whatever he seemed to be suffering from.

aaaaand wasn't Downey meant to be rested because he too had a groin problem? Hope he didn't aggravate it by playing today.

Hope they all come right asap!

Paston will be a rib injury, he got an elbow there from one of the many challenges along with a head.

lia looks the most serious, sanchez was just cramp which is great news, iffy and paston should be alright for next week hopefully.

disappointing for lia thought he played great and is under rated by most people in these forums.
hopefully its not to bad!

Not a disaster if he misses a game or two - Manny to midfield and Downey starts at right back (with Griffiths and maybe Lindsay on the bench).

Gutted for Lia. This was his season for me.

Hope it isnt too long, but best to be safe.. It will be devastating if he has another knee problem.


Sanchez will be back, Iffy too hopefully, but that could take a bit more.

Need more news on Ifill's groin.
 
I'm going on groin watch this week as I thought he was looking very sharp in the first half.  I'd rate his groin more important than any in the NZ egg ball team.

I think he had some good efforts, but a few wayward crosses. Seemed like he didnt know at points whether to be crossing or shooting, and wanted to beat his man. Not sure if he was able to get enough time on the ball- could be the fact we were away from home?

Really hope he can be back by Sunday for us!

It is a disaster if you've seen Downey play right back before.

Gutted for myself.  Might as well just not go along to the game. (That's a joke, I'll be there with freakin bells on)
