    So with everything I’ve read/heard about injuries we have a lot of players crocked, or having little niggles right now.

    if I put on my most rose tinted specs all I can say is that this is the best time for players to be injured, what with a 3 week break coming up. If we had the injures we had now come March/April, when teams are looking to battle relegation, or push for promotion, I would be more concerned.

    let’s get tonight done with. A good performance and a point would do me. Go again once this farce of a World Cup has happened.

    Reading were two points off top,we had no Stewart and 'a difficult night' became worse when Simms went off ...

    ... we've played well away from home, hopefully tonight will be another good one for those making the journey.

    Friday night travelling down in the dark when it's live on Sky, great support.

    The sad thing is that knowing our luck we'll have another set of injuries to deal with by then aswell. We always seem to struggle to keep players fit for some reason, and rarely have a situation where we have a fully fit squad to chose from.

    last time we did well with injuries was under BSA and his cryo chamber, bring it back.

    WMS are saying that it's Batth, Cirkin, Simms and Neil who are out

    So, in short the "ITK" lads are just guessing

    Batth and cirkin a big blows, very little chance of a clean sheet, would snap your hands off for a point right now

    Is this not an example of the mix-up in stories of the father's of Rigg and Crotcher?

    I just knew as soon as injuries were mentioned, Simms would be one of them

    Starting to feel like maybe he should go back in Jan and start a fresh doesn’t seem to have worked as a lone striker, saying that it’s easy to forget he’s only 21 himself, would love a Jerry Yates type to come in in Jan
