Howmanheyman 37580 Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Btw, why doesn't he get his facts right, surely it should read 'Mike Ashley sold his soul to the Saudis'? 'Newcastle' did fuck all. He's bitter as fuck and can't separate Saudi Arabia from an entity it part owns. Also helps it isn't a NW team, doesn't it? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did he tell the club?… am not suggesting the club is blameless but it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that he concealed it either deliberately or just by the fact that his knee wasn’t that sore. We kept clean sheets in all three games so it does rather suggest all parties didn’t think there was too much of a problem… I wouldn’t have thought that a physio would’ve been part of the diagnosis team, especially one who’d been on extended parental leave for months..

ewerk 33805 Posted January 1, 2024 Share Posted January 1, 2024 Quote “I did my knee against Brentford but then played two games after that (without realising). It blew up the day after Sheff United game & the scan showed some big damage in my knee… “Some people (specialists) said it was a total rupture, others said that it wasn’t. So I’ve done everything to rest and avoid surgery. The operation would’ve kept me out for 9 months but I’m back & feeling like my old self again — so it seems like I made the right choice.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamTaylor5 1204 Posted January 1, 2024 Share Posted January 1, 2024 That is shocking, if completely accurate. As much as it was frustrating to see Murphy do his shoulder again, I understand the thought process. It is crazy that specialists can give such difference in advice.

Wouldn’t an orthopaedic specialist be more appropriate? Am sure the physios are the first line of assessment but the final call should really go to a suitably qualified doctor?

wykikitoon 23575 Posted January 1, 2024 Author Share Posted January 1, 2024 Aye. He's worked on quite a few Prem players including Kane in the past. So assuming he has given advice here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the head physio misses the issue, doesn't make a specialist referral or ask for a scan, and then 2 games later Botman blows his knee out, whose fault is it? It's all conjecture anyway. But Botman clearly isn't happy and then our head physio leaves his post the same day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a nurse I obviously don’t expect you to know the answer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted January 2, 2024 Share Posted January 2, 2024 Honestly not sure whose at fault but it sounds like this bloke has been out on paternity for a substantial amount of the 13 months he’s been at the club, and also didn’t move his family up so was traveling back south a lot - seems it was more a poor fit? Whoever is in charge of that side of things has been doing a shite job anyway, Botman is only one example of consistently rushing players back from injury - Isak and Murphy have both been rushed back before making their injuries worse this season. Hopefully it’s fixed going forward. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
