Is Brooks out for the season?

[derfblade.3]

I just had a look at Glandular fever and the infection lasts for 2/3 weeks but then fatigue sets in. Here's what it says.

How long on average does fatigue last for with glandular fever?
Prolonged fatigue. More than 1 in every 10 people with glandular fever will experience prolonged fatigue, which lasts for six months or more after the initial infection.

So if he's the one in 10 then surely he won't play again this season. Such a shame for the lad.

think CW said he’s on his way back

 

[Stretch]

Wilder said he was close to a return, along with Freeman in his latest interview. Certainly sounded more like when rather than if he returns this season. Here's hoping he comes back in for the final push anyway.

Plus with Holmes and Wilson coming in we have plenty of options in the forward cadre so no point rushing anything. There was also more than a hint of seriousness when Wilder said that Brooks being ill during January may have done us a favour. I would be hugely surprised if we sold him before the summer.

If he’s one of the 90% though he’ll be fine

 

[Bruce Wayne]

He'll perk up next week when he signs for Liverpool.

 

[Cheets]

Apparently he's aiming to be back for the Wolves game.

 

[FTPE]

Sure he was back training last week, and with his age it'll take 2 weeks max to get him back to fitness.
I bet Leeds will be chuffed to see him again.

 

[McGrath]

It knocked the shit out of me for months when I had it.

Matt Prestridge on the Alan Biggs show said Brookes was getting tired just climbing the stairs at Shirecliffe

 

[Davalon]

I had the fatigue for a couple of weeks before feeling unwell. I was right as rain after about another 2 weeks or so.

Must have been fortunate.

 

[Tunstall Fred]

Give him a full bottle of Minadex on February 1st,he will be fine to play that afternoon.

I was thinking perhaps a couple of teaspoons of Calpol.

We’ll not see him in a Blades shirt again. I’m turning into a conspiracy theorist

I had malaria, typhoid, anthrax and whooping cough all at the same time and still turned out for Greenside u18s

We don’t want another Paddy Kenny

 

[Harry's Game]

Just don’t give him what Paddy Kenny had.

Someone else wanting attention. Do your homework, and listen to wilders last interview. Brooks will be back shortly

 

[Tom Bott]

Given that he is an athlete he is more likely to recover faster. Plus he is under constant medical and fitness control, in the new Blades regime.

 

[Geordie Blade]

Doctors say that, if you rest appropriately, you should be kicking the ball between Chris Woods’s legs within ten to twelve weeks.

 

[ucandomagic]

He will be out of the spotlight until January is ended - wonder why? Good subtle management.

At the age of 30? Fairplay lad.

 

[Rodley]

....in the forward cadre so no point rushing...

Not wanting attention just posting a legit comment on a fans forum in this country of freedom and democracy. Forums wouldn't be forums if no-one posted questions/ links and such . Anyway, lets hope one day to see you post something positive and constructive to this forum......although i doubt it!

 

[Sheffsteel]

Agree, Wilder was interviewed after the Preston game today and he said Brooks should be FIT for selection NEXT WEEK.

 

[sitwell]

Saw young David obliging people with photos in Waitrose car park about 2.30 waiting for his mates I reckon ,tracky on looking fit and ready ,although he looks about 12.

 

[Rojoyblanco]

Yip tune!

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Back for selection v Wolves

Minadex. Now there's a blast from the past

 

[Greenwich Blade]

Minadex. Now there's a blast from the past

My mum had me on Minadex when I was a nipper because she was concerned about my lack of appetite - I was one heck of a fussy eater. Nowadays I need something that works in reverse - Xedanim perhaps?

 

[wavy-blade]

Brooks, Brooks will tear u apart again !!!! Cant wait to see the lad back in a blades shirt
