Just as Forrester was looking really solid in games he's injured again ffs. Clare plays multiple internationals then injured in training, they really need to get a handle on this as we seem to lose more players to injury during the week than during games?

Don't worry, Hayden is there to go into a CB position

Has RW dyed his hair, I don't remember it being that dark before?
He doesn't say much, as usual in all these interviews. It's played very cagey as presumably, they don't want to give anything away to the opposition.

Probably doesn't help that we only seem to sign players with a long history of recurring injuries.

It's a real blow to lose Forrester. He looked the best player for a few weeks now. It's always the best players that get injured.

I'm so not looking forward to games now, as we are crap, & the manager is crap too.

Until he's gone, we'll continue to decline

It's hard to watch your team getting outplayed all over the pitch week in week out.

Sighhhhhhh

Shame about Forrester, no one could have seen that coming with him playing Saturday Wednesday Saturday…

Oh, it was predictable

Surely it’s time to give Charlie Wellens a go at CB. It’s about the only position he hasn’t been tried in yet.

Depends if Baxter gets injured in the warm up

Apart from the other centre half on the bench, he had "no choice" but to play him.

Is that what he’s said?

Its in the interview

I’m really angry about this. It was so f*cking obvious.

Chinedu started the season really well at CB for a kid, then got shunted out to a position he doesn’t want to play and now isn’t good enough to come on as a sub to rest Forrester ?
