Could be mistaken

[Fanny magnet]

Would that be the SuperVet? He's red hot at fixing broken legs.

Coutts will come back on wheels

 

[Chali 2na]

I suspect the actual information may be fairly accurate though.

I agree: My issue is the source rather than the content

 

[Tunstall Fred]

I was under the impression Doctors were that overworked that they didn't have any leisure time

 

[silver blade]

I was in the gym yesterday I think I heard two doctors talking about a 29 year old professional footballer with a broken tibia , no name mentioned but who else could it be . The consensus was that as breaks go it was an uncomplicated break and 4 to 6 weeks in a cast and return to playing in 4 months. Hope this is correct.

Was it these two?

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

Official word is just tibia. Also, what’s a fibia

Excuse my shite spelling of fibula!

Someone equally as good........ but with humans rather than animals!

If that's true it'd be amazing and he'd be back just in time for the run-in

One from your private collection

Good cause at 31 it would probabley been career ending

Why would a broken leg be career ending at 31?

I think generally some people on here are still living in the 70's when players were done at 30. Today if they look after themselves , good players should be able to play at their natural level beyond 35.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

I seem to remember a Liverpool player breaking his leg like Couttsy. He was back a few months later and did it again.

Kabba did sumat simular.

 

[DifferentClass]

Read on one of the other threads that, because of improved treatment techniques & with them fitting metal pins etc nowadays, it leaves the leg stronger than before. Don't know how true?

Coutts has metal in his leg and Lavery has metal in his face.

Forged in Steel indeed!

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

Hanging around the gym, listening to other peoples conversations, sounds a bit gay, if you ask me.

HH

That or a nosy twat

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

What happens between being 29 and 31? Does your body start decomposing fifty times faster?

Fuck me I'm 47....hope I don't chip a nail

I did, do, have done, it gets more confusing at double that age

And then your alarm clock went off........

Either that or you were awoken by the smell of bullshit......

I can imagine the conversation next to the squat rack.

Charles.
Yes Sheridan.
I had a 29 year old professional football player with a broken tibia, can't mention his name.
Sounds uncomplicated 4 to 6 weeks in a cast and return to playing in 4 months.

What's wrong with the spelling?..........

Ah, just noticed that's not how you spell excuss, deeerrrrrrrrrrr

There's a lot more to coming back to be the player you were than just going through the .6,8, 10 week or whatever period lay off, to being able to play properly and get back to doing what you did can take months on top of that, some players never attain that level of excellence.
I remember when Gill Reece broke his leg, when he came back he was never the same player, - just saying.
I honestly and deeply hope Coutts is back doing what he, and only he, does for our team, a.s.a.p.

Tbf Gill Reece broke his leg over 40 years ago when the medical treatment on offer was a slap on the back and a cigarette to reduce the boredom. Hurt your knee in then days and that was that. The best plan is to expect him back next pre season. If it happens sooner that would be great

Coming back as Gill? it may have been the sex change that was the problem.......

[United Aren't Back.]

They failed to mention his name but included his career, specific injury and age.

I always found doctors to like to add a bit of mystery to the occasion. Confidentiality etc.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

One of them had a stethoscope and the other was wearing a white coat.

And the other one thought it was probably a virus.

Scambles.. I gather they are a variety of blackberry bush found in India and Nigeria .
