Nothing on O/S. Where did you get this from?

 

[TrueBlue]

Bloody well hope now!

 

[shrimperton]

Reliable, but cannot reveal, sorry guys, all i can say is hope she is wrong but its unlikely

 

[Boreham Shrimper]

If this is true this is going to be a huge, huge loss. Assuming he is out, Tilson needs to go with Kanu and Walker up front I think and just pray that we can snatch a goal. Bailey, Gower and Macca are going to need to be on their games I think to provide the necessary quality going forward.

 

[Pubey]

yeah i think kanu will have to come in if this is true... we need to be able to hang onto the ball, and i think kanu will bring players into the game as well as frighten them with his pace and trickery

Kanu come in for Barney last time he got injured and scored 3 goals in 3 games

Huge loss if Barney is out though

 

[Jam_Man]

Its a big loss but I think we have other reasonable options and with Bailey & Gower still have options to get a goal.

Disappointing but if we create the chances that we did on Friday Barnard wouldnt have anything to go on anyway.

 

[leeblue]

slight blessing IMO, yes barney is class but never really fully fit, thought we were crying out for some pace and power on friday bring on the Kanu

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

I can't understand how someone can be so injury prone, i know this is his ankle but the others have been muscle injuries.

So, any word on how long he'd be out for if he does miss Friday and yet we still get through?

Would Barney be out for Wembley?

I take it Macca's not injured?

it could potentially leave us very short for wembley, as walker will have gone back by then

What Lee really needs is a spell of recovery then a decent pre-season and he can hopefully build up some injury resistance that way.

Look at Michael Owen's return from his broken leg at the World Cup!

 

[leeblue]

will tilly be silly and play Revell ahead of kanuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, who IMO is better than Revell(from what ive seen so far)

 

[MK Shrimper]

Maybe this is some "kidology" aimed Donny's way? Until the team is announced on Friday evening noone really knows.

They are only taking it for this game at the mo, so he should be back for wembley, if we make it, and had no word on macca, so no news is good news, as they say!

SPOT ON I HOPE IT IS, but i dont think donny are planning their tactics around whether barney plays or not.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

I think Kanu will have a fair crack in the Reading first team next year now they've gone down so we might aswell use him while we have him.

If Steve Coppell thought he was good enough to be in a Prem team next year he will be a championship player next year, and from what i have seen before he got inj, he is good enough to whip Donny, its a good bit of loan play by Tilly IMO
