Hendrie now potentially out for the rest of the season, surely we need to be looking at why we are getting so many injuries? Is it really all just down to luck?
Was Hendrie playing injured previously?

we’re presumably still paying off a manager and a player.

Hard to believe that our luck is that bad.Was Hendrie playing injured previously?
We hear very little about the coaches . Can anyone enlighten me as to their backgrounds.Yes, I was wondering the same. Is it our training - have many backroom staff changed since PB left ? I question whether CP has the right assistants working with him ? I don't think the players fitness levels look as good as they did last season or is that just down to not being able to rotate the squad - chicken and egg situation if that is the case.
Not sure this has a bearing on fitness/injuries, but here is a pic of one of the Southend United's first team "Coaches".

Blimey have we ever had a season so bad for injuries. I guess it puts our current form in to some kind of perspective, the match day squad must pick itself from those left fit. Hardly makes for much competition.
However, apparently Rob Kiernan is back in full training!!
I generally think this is the case.
We look much less fit, and it does appear that the fitness coaches which were replaced were doing a far better job.
We have also resorted to very little half-time warmup for the substitutes, maybe 5 minutes at the end whereas previously it had all changed and a fitness coach went and took a proper warmup half-time for the substitutes. It really does look quite pathetic when compared to some of the opposition who have proper warm-ups and small warm up games.
I think that's why we got Hart in. I've got no inside information but Hendrie disappeared as soon as Hart arrived and that was the first thing I thought
I'm pretty sure that Phil Brown's contract ended last summer so I doubt we're playing him off
Mid table club with a mid table budget have their worst ever season for injuries must be in the bottom 4 right?
I mean anything above that would be a bonus ....surely ?
