I would have thought that with the advances nowadays in player treatments and rehabilitation that long absences fron the game should be limited to only the most serious of injuries but this season every time a player has been injured he seems to have been out for months rather than weeks.
Turner, Pilkington, Macheda, Revell, Mason, Noone and of course crowd favourite Dikgacoi have all been out for months at a time.
Is this because there aren't enough reserve/development games in which to ease them back?
Is it because they all have suffered extremely serious injuries?
Is it because their basic lack of fitness means they have longer recovery times?
Is our medical set-up as incompetent as other management areas and part of the general malaise at the club?
