So i suppose it's another few days until we hear about barney,here's a thought how about actually keeping fans in the know for a change? Sorry about the rant but this is one thing that annoys me about saints,the lack of info to the fans who obviously want to know if we'll be without one of our best players for the run-in. Rant over.
I'm sure they'll be some cr@p on the Echo about how he's going to be out for 10 years... I'll check now aha
He was being rested for Brighton next Saturday No point risking players when they're only half fit...
Although i agree he was dreadful at times on saturday i think i'd take him in the side instead of forte and n'guessan because at the end of the day if he didn't have that piece of class on saturday then we'd be talking about being in the play-offs now.Think we need that bit of something different to win games.All a game of opinions though.
To be honest that's all that he needed to do was to score. A lot of players are like that they are just not in the game but they do have that ability to do a spot of genius and the ball is in the back of the net. How many times have people said after a game. "Never touched the ball all game then he scores a goal from nowhere" Or "not in the game at all during whole match but just happened to be in the right place to tap it in" Isn't that the frustration of football? As they say "football is a funny old game"!!
Maybe it's just as simple as they don't know the extent of the damage? It says he is home resting - maybe they think resting it is best at this stage. I am willing to be patient and trust them to make the right call.
Good or bad don't think they can do a lot till swelling has gone down. Doesn't look good to me and of the two I would rather he was in the side than Guly.
It does annoy me when the club keep all things secretive and don't let the fans know about anything anyway, back to Barnards injury he is going to be a HUGE loss to the team, especially considering his recent form, we are going to be losing a lot of goals as Guly & Connolly won't contribute as many as Barney would have done
Play Guly up top with Lambo. Guly was great last time he was up front when Barnard was out. That goal against Blackpool. Beautiful. Davis Butterfield Jaidi Fonte Dickson Forte Hammond Chaplow Lallana Guly Lambert Subs: Bialkowski, N'Guessan, Harding, Richardson, Connolly, Stephens, Seaborne
Where have you got that information? Nothing on the OS and as far as I know there has been no word from NA.
Ok it's just that my contact said they didn't know yet. Mind you that was aroiund 4 ish this afternoon. Maybe things have changed since then.
Even if it was just a sprain, would any of us be up for a game of football within a fortnight? I think time is against him.
