May explain why he was crap in the latter part of the season.

I hope that, if an operation is necessary, it won't be an open three months, otherwise we can add a midfielder (at least, one on loan) to our close-season shopping list.

A bit harsh ...... but I was wondering if I was the only person who wondered how it was that Timlin kept his place every week - especially when we had such a range of other alternatives.

Perhaps Sturrock only views Kalala as being able to replace Timlin ........... in which case we might have to add 2 midfielders to the shopping list - unless Dailly is supposed to be cover?

Harsh but fair. There were times when Timlin couldn't pass wind. I want to see the form of the Michael Timlin we had on loan.

Created a new thread for you :smile:

Thanks very much for that............whilst it lessens the embarrassment............it sadly doesn't do anything to correct my underlying problems. :winking:

Dont think you have fully recovered from that time you buried yourself under a load of furniture while tring to unload your van and listen to blues commentary:smile:

Timlin hoping jab does the trick

SOUTHEND United midfielder Michael Timlin is hoping an injection can cure a long-term shoulder problem and stop him missing the start of the League Two season.

More...

The perils of devotion and multi-tasking: sounds like a recipe for a shoulder injury.

Does this account for his drop in performance last season?

Are you drunk? Kalala can't replace Timlin at all. Even putting aside the gulf in quality they are completely different roles.

A shoulder injury sounds like the type of thing one would get from carrying a team for 6 months.

Are you drunk?

No - as sober as a boy scout. I'm searching around for reasons as to why Timlin wasn't rested towards the end of the season when we had so many other midfielders who might/should/could have been given a chance ...........

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Sawyer would have been a far better option to come in for Timlin if he was struggling.

You could be right there..............my wife always says that the Brocante will be the death of me! :sad:

How many midfielders did we actually have available ? Kalala was injured. That left Ferdinand and Sawyer. Ferdinand was playing in some of the games and Sawyer just didnt meet Sturrocks expectations.

Hang on a minute...........are you talking about Timlin or myself? Could a simple injection be the solution to all my problems? .................................isn't that still illegal? :winking:

I was linking your dedication to the Blues cause whilst doing all those things under the van to the original concerns about MT, Yogi ... it would be nice if a simple injection was the solution, but I don't think that anyone's life is that simple.

Agreed - or at least should/could have been given a chance ............
