Keven Schlotterbeck

Decent news, hope the chap comes back firing. Stephens on the left of the back two still gives me a heart palpitations. 

[Badger]

Certainly opens up the game time for Abbot. 
 

Remains to be seen if Wood - according to rumour - will now collect his toys from around the place and put them back in the pram. 

[Turkish]

Another player who isn’t always available. WTF are they signing players like this for?

We need a shoulder coach / falling coach. This sort of thing never happens at other clubs.

[Danbert]

Though we will miss Schlotterbeck, I thought Abbott looked decent against PNE

[disconnect]

If it's true that Wood is a bit of a c**k then maybe Kayi Sanda is worth a go at least on the bench? Always thought he looked pretty decent. I imagine it'll be Abbott and Stephens then Wood on the bench, but I'd be tempted at some point to try him.

That's always  a slightly difficult one in that you want players who want to play, but how does that manifest itself if they aren't playing? Giving up in training and sulking won't help, so how far has he been flinging his toys?

Looks like he has a bit of a history for this sort of stuff, over his career he only averages 26 games a season, always cup tied or injured by the looks of it. Only took him 13 games to get a long injury with us. We need players who NEVER get injured it isn't hard is it

Damian Downs was never injured and they fucking shipped him off. 
 

Run by clowns.

Stephens is pretty weak in the air, and Abbott is smaller than him.

I don't think that's a combination that'll yield much success in this division.

Seaside B&B…. 

[Challenger]

No decent SF and Jack Stephens as no.1 CB, it's an ever occuring cycle of SR perennial "if only" near misses.

[Willo of Whiteley]

All these rumours about Wood ffs. He probably just downed tools in training for a week and he was rightly left out.

No evidence of toys being thrown out the pram over lack of starts etc. 😂

[Disco Stu]

That's about as good as it could have been.

Although there are several cases of players coming back from dislocated shoulders after similar time scales only to need surgery later down the road as they're still in discomfort. Hopefully this isn't one of those cases.

Need a Judo coach. Learning how to fall is a key component!

He's been a great signing thus far. If we go up, I wonder if he'd be able to step up to the next level.

If we do go up, I think he’ll be more Fonte than Hooiveld.

Hate to sound downbeat, but I dislocated my shoulder last December, and I’ve not played a Championship game since.

Let's hope Schlotterbeck fares better!

Careful. Saints might sign you. 

[Turkish]

So with Slotter (not) Back, Jander, Scienza and Larin all crocked you have to ask why we aren’t signing players who are alway available. Will they all miss the Middlesbourgh game? 🙄🙄🤦‍♂️

Absolutely. Why we've not signed footballers who are immune to injury I'll never know.

It beggars belief doesn’t it. Why can’t we just give them a cortisone injection and get them back out there.
