    A gravity treadmill? What on earth is that! I am under physio for a knackered knee and get nout like that mind <laugh> I am told to work like Rocky 4 - lift bloody tires through my knees!

    In all seriousness, great to see him back doing something. He is some player.

    I really like this tweet, not only does it show Rossco getting back but also the tech and equipment available at the AoL. I've also got no idea what a gravity treadmill is but this sort of stuff will help make up the minds of potential signings to come here over other clubs if they see what sort of things we invest in to help them achieve their maximum.

    Excellent point that mate. If we are cutting edge on stuff like recovery it will be a major selling point. I guess there is no limit on how we spend on this sort of stuff, so having an owner who wants to do it adds to our attraction.

    Only the elite get it.

    Basically injuries have come full circle now. Do less rest more mobility to increase circulation and speed up recover. Anti gravity is sort of like hydrotherapy which is exercise under water. Less weight, no stress on injury, but getting blood to the area. Thus, speeding up recover and healing.

    That's the best I can explain without getting into heavy physiology ha.

    That'll do me. Are we firing up the Cryo chamber again? It's still there at the AoL isn't it?

    Shame that, it was really cutting edge when they installed it. I like us having things like that to give us an edge off the field.

    Edit, just re-read that about the pool. Do you mean there was literally no water in the swimming pool?

    An Anti-Gravity Treadmill - don't know if it takes account of added air pressure from farts, but I certainly wouldn't want to be smelling the released air after I'd finished using it :emoticon-0132-envy:

    Mental.

    I wonder how many of Martin Bains watches they found at the bottom of the pool when they drained it. He probably lost count how many he had. <laugh>

    I remember liniment in the dressing room pre match. Used to rub it into your thighs and made them glisten. Everyone had a bottle or jar of it. You would walk out to play with tears streaming down your face and coughing like a 40 a day smoker. It was great stuff though.

    Bloody wuss.

    Anti Gravity whatevers. They should have slapped a wet sponge on his face, rubbed some Fiery Jack on his hammy and sent him out to play!

    Can you still get it or have they banned it on the lines of cruelty?
