Dalek2003 Posted 2 April, 2015 Share Posted 2 April, 2015 I imagine that Jay Rod may come on as sub for last 20 minutes or so. However, surely the aim will be to have him ready for August ? He will need to get back up to speed etc, but if he is back to his old self it will be fantastic. Let's hope FF recovery time is quicker. With a bit of luck ready in January ?

[11.08 minutes in] Fair point, but i would imagine that he will be brought on for the last 15 minutes of a game that is 'comfortably' won or lost in order to acclimatise him in readiness for next season. We do not have to risk him as we are not in a relegation scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the saint in winchester Posted 16 April, 2015 Share Posted 16 April, 2015 I've made these comments before ...no need to put him in the shop window this season ...unless that is what we are trying to do! Much as I love the romantic idea that he will come on and score crucial goals in the final 3 games that win us 4th place ...its unlikely to happen, and I also fear he could set himself back in his recovery and not be available by August. Not a pessimist, just a realist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morally, I would suggest that he should stay, even if just for a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
