Had his op yesterday, evidently went well and described as successful by the club.

Does that mean he now has an ACL where he didn't before? Presuming it was the same knee Richie has talked about in the past?

Wishing Theo a full and speedy recovery. Been said before but I'd like the club to keep us better updated on our players' progress back to fitness.

Having Theo, Graham , Agyei and O’Neill all fit next season will be deadly.

Not sure that’s going to happen mate,Theo has been outstanding this season but I think management and board have some very tuff decisions to make.

He should loyalty to the club by dropping a level and then signing permanently. He gives 100% every game he plays. The club will show loyalty back to him.

Not saying you’re wrong but from a practical point of view he will be taking up a wage for best part of a season and we are not Chelsea or Man City. People are assuming that Graham will be back but I have doubts about that. There’s a reason that clubs didn’t sign him and that’s because he’s injury prone unfortunately. Don’t forget we have Moncur who can’t get through 45 minutes and Happe who always seems to pick up a longish term injury every season. Throw Sanders in there and we have more injuries than an A&E ward. All this and not even counting the unforeseen injuries. Decisions have to be made and they may not be very popular

It is not easy playing competitive football when you know your knee is suspect and could give way. All credit to him, he has managed very well.

Theo will get at least a 6 month contract to prove his fitness, The O's won't dump him when he's recovering from injury, the club are bigger than that.

Pretty clear that Richie is loyal to players that he trusts and have shown loyalty to him. Of course he'll get 12 months to prove himself.
