@Phil__Smith
LJ says [HASHTAG]#SAFC[/HASHTAG] have got 'challenges' in the injury department.

Says he has an injury list of 7-8 players for the Cambridge game

Who do we already know about?
Burge, Huggins, Hume, Cirkin and McGeady - that's 5

Hopefully he's including Willis in that list (but probably not)

Just as long as Neil, Hoffmann, Doyle and Stewart are ok....

Looks like an early press conference today...

Just watched it, no doubt Johnson speaks well and seems relaxed about the whole situation.

I genuinely hope I am wrong and he can is a success here.

Also he mentioned square pegs in round holes…I reckon he is following @Teessidemackem on here

Willis, Arby, probably O'Nien.

Willis, Arby, probably O'Nien.

Aye, O9 could be a good shout and hopefully Xhemajli isn't injured again (or maybe he's not "fit" yet so Coco the Clown is including him in the "injured players" list

Geads is out for 8-12 wks

Does anybody know if we an recall Diamond?

Not sure for definite but I'd imagine there is a clause in it similar to Patterson coming back due to Burges injury.

 

[Teessidemackem]

I cant help but think not spending a penny in the transfer market has come back to bite us on the ar$e now

Sure there was a Jan only clause in

Err.....we spent money on Cirkin & Huggins whilst paying loan fees for Hoffmann, Alves, Doyle, Broadhead and Dajaku
Not to mention renewing contracts for O'Nien, Hume, Neil, McGeady and Embleton

No we didnt. Cirkin and Huggins were signed for free

Were all entitled to our opinions and its my opinion that we should have spent some proper cash before the season started to secure promotion once and for all.

I debated this over dozens of pages on the transfer thread at the time so i cant be ar$ed to do it all over again on here.

 

[Teessidemackem]

No they weren't

Huggins was free and we paid a small fee for Cirkin because he was out of contract nearly.
