Devastating for the lad,he has Boyce who went though a long time injury,and Barker who will be a inspiration, in the long months a head. And staff who will share this terrible journey with him

His knee will be stronger than it was before the injury once he's recovered. Although it's a setback it's not a career limiting injury like it may have been in the past

It’s a bit of a hobby horse of mine but I’ve never been convinced by pre-season friendlies. It’s not a criticism of our club either;it’s across football.
We start training in July on rock hard pitches, sometimes searing heat and it seems by August 3rd players such as Brayford, Bucko, Fraser et al will have played 5 games in 3 weeks; again all on rock hard pitches. Brayford and Bucko were absolutely knackered when they came off the pitch on Tuesday.
We’ve all played football. Do you need that many friendlies? These are professional sportsman, it is their profession to be ready. Don’t we over complicate it?
You should arrive at August 3rd fresh, eager, raring to go. We will arrive at August 3rd you can guarantee not at full strength.A club like ours doesn't have the depth of squad.
On Tuesday night we had Fox, Quinn and O'Toole on the bench injured.Who next?
Disappointed for Foxy, he really would have kicked on this season.

Well I sort of agree, why a contrate if matches in a short space of time? Managers moan when we start off a season chasing midweek cup matches and I don't think for some Prem clubs they have much of a break, they are off in the sun competing in some sort of pre season tournament. We need pre season games but less of them, spaced out to give more recovery time. They do other stuff too when they are in pre season mode, must take it's toll so early at the start of the season for the older players.

This is disappointing news, I really thought this was going to be Bens season to become a 1st team regular.
