Worst Injuries seen at Roots Hall !!

[sadsy]

Here's the starter :

Michael Gilkes of Reading breaking his leg , slammed into the South Bank wall by Dean Austin I think.

I think the death of Mike North from a heart attack is worse than that...

You'll struggle to beat that...

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

When I lost my footing during a North Bank surge in the mid-eighties and was trampled by some of the bigger boys. Some ****er trod on my hand and broke two fingers. Not the most spectacular, but it was the worst one ever in my self-centred world.

remember the day prior broke his leg at the hall, the whole ground kind of winced as one, didnt that mouthy **** bellamy break his leg here too for norwich in preseason, obviously the death of the ref wont be topped

Don't think Bellamy broke his leg, but he did serious damage to his knee while turning. He was out for ages.

The Derby 'keeper breaking his leg in 1995 was pretty grusome, as was Mel Capleton's broken leg I once saw in a Reserve game.

John McKinven having his leg broken by Graham Taylor was very nasty as I recall...

I slipped up the north bank steps when I was about six and spread my nose across my face, also tweaked a hammy celebrating freddies penalty against northampton in the play offs

does that class as an injury ?

does that class as an injury ?

good point, surely injury implies you can recover from it

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

does that class as an injury ?

Not in the sense that I think it was meant.........but a fatal one nevertheless.

Tilly's heart being broken when Martin told him he had to manage with such a meagre squad. UTB.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

I saw Doogie break sweat vs Mk Dons, horrific sight.

as long as bellamy was hurt I dont mind being corrected and that keepers leg break was horrible indeed

Will that be worse than the one he is going to perform against him at Charlton
on Saturday week?

I don't believe you. In Fact, i think that's a bold faced lie!! He's never broke into a stride, let alone sweat :)
