Yes hamstring gone so I'm lead to believe maybe a bad move by Allen we will see

Throughout the season we might be better off having a thread every time drew is fit

I’ve now just started assuming he is unless anyone says otherwise.

[SpireRam]

Forgot he played for us again. Probably worth just using him as a coach more than anything, he's finished as a player.

How is it possible to get so many injuries


Just bad luck?

Surely not

No such thing as luck;-)

Usually poor rehab of prior injuries or imbalances that go unrecognised or ignored.

Some complete dick in a Man U shirt kicked my hand clean through and shattered it when I was playing in goal and went for the ball. If that was not bad luck, what was it?

Do the hard ground conditions contribute in any way ?

A foul?

[60s 70s Spireite]

Presumably one way to avoid hamstring injuries would be to not play the game? I’ve not had one since I hung up my Sunday League boots over 35 years ago.

You were playing Man Utd? Nice! Who did you play for?

Wish I had been. They wouldn't have been as reckless. I was playing for Kickabout VIII .

Sounds like a Japanese team.

Injuries are either extrinsic or intrinsic.
Intrinsic are down to factors like conditioning and fatigue etc and can generally be avoided with planning, training etc.

Extrinsic are sometimes unavoidable of course.
(Although some people I know will even argue against this)!! - for example - was you hand conditioned enough to withstand the nature of the game? Could you have been better prepared to react quicker in the situation etc.... (if you get my drift)!?

Soft tissue injuries like hamstring strains are never down to bad luck though

Thanks for explaining your meaning. Self-abuse jokes aside, I'm not sure how much better-conditioned my hand could have been- it was in a glove, I went for the ball, some careless tool decided to kick through the ball full-force at the same moment..... bad luck. It happens. Not sure how many of Drew's injuries have been bad luck in the same manner.

[Bonnyman]

I don't think its anything to do with rehab, I'd say it's his running style that causes it and the older he gets the more his style hampers him

You've omitted the third type and the most common during a game the "contric".
