Injuries And Suspensions

Any word on grabban yet?

Let’s hope it’s not ankle ligaments

Not looking good on grabbs and cook. Figgs is still here at least but need another striker if grabbs is injured. Big problem is we already have 5 loans playing as starters- so will need permanents.
Leicester - we need to rest them up by the looks of today

We need to offer to throw the game in exchange for the loan of a player!

Those injuries need to settle down before they can be scanned and assessed properly. We're probably not going to know tomorrow if he's crocked or not. The recruitment team have to assume he's out for a couple of months.

He's also in Cardiff atm which doesnt help. So no chance of him getting assessed properly tonight i would have thought.

Two from our spine who'd played so well up until this game.

And both of them torpedoed by the clog happy Cardiff who got away with murder today.

Left the ground with foot in a protective boot and in” quite a lot of pain”.
Doesn’t sound too good.

Grabban out for two months.

And Cook's calf issue still being assessed.

May need an op. FFS I hate Cardiff!


"I feel sorry for Grabbs, he's having such a good season," boss Steve Cooper told BBC Radio Nottingham.

"He's going to be out for at least two months. We're still going through the process of whether he needs an operation or not.

"It's happened and we have to look forward now. Grabbs will get the care he needs and he'll still be around the group and be as much of a captain as he can be without contributing on the pitch."

Cooper added: "Cooky's not so bad. It was a mixture of a calf strain and a knock on it as well, so we're still waiting for the information to come down before we know how long. We're still working on that one."

Still?

Be interesting to see the 'back line' vs Leicester.

Two bleeping months for Grabban and a potential operation.  Geeze.  Shame.  He was on track for '20' and he was actually playing with a smile.

'Hate.'  If there's a thread that needs a 'hate' thread it's for Cardiff's cynical (deliberate?) tackles that put 2 of our players beyond use and almost took Yates out with another nasty studs up tackle.  I don't know how your foot gets that high unless you mean to do it.    :head:

What's more. 3 players along our spine appear to have been targeted. Coincidence?

At least there's hope that Cook's injury may not be so bad.

Gutted, he was really looking good these last few months too. Credit to the recruitment team for pivoting and signing someone to fill the gap I guess
