Had my cruciate done after snapping it a few years ago.....made a right crack just turning with nobody anywhere near me recovery is a long, slow and painful process of around 9-12 months.....and it was another 6 months before me before i was confident enough to actually do everything on a football field. If i snapped it again (or the other), i'd never play football again. Just not got the stomach to risk having to go through it 3 times!!!! If he's a strong character and gets a good solid rebuild, then i seeno reason why he can't kickstart his career. Have to say with my experiance, anything other than a strong character and it's over for him i'm afraid

Yeah, we've not had anyone with that quality since the great Michael Clegg

In certain games last season - you only have to look at the management team.....time and time again we threw a defender up top when we had strikers on the benchl. I can understand it with 2-3 mins to go but there were games when Mvoto was playing up front with nearly 15 minutes left... When you do that - you increase temptaion to launch it forward instead of playing football

aljofree arber branston forbes jarret swailes? thompson todd trotman (second time) All defenders who have been around at similar times hazell has been at the club - pretty sure i'd prefer Rubes in my side over every one of those. Yes i'm fully aware of the mistakes he made - but i would have happily had him round the club next year. Has it made us weaker? At the moment.....yes but that could change depending on who comes in, but in our league, with our budget - i'd be suprised if it was somebody better.

One major issue i see is our complete lack of any pace throughout the side....We lack any creativity an its often unfair to criticise the strike force when quite simply, they get little or no service at all. We're in desperate need of an influential player in the middle of the park or someone who can play off the strikers and hold up the ball because we're pretty much too slow to attack. That's why I'd defiantly keep Allesandra.....Morais is the only player we're likely to still have who can create something for us next year - taylor has too many days where if the team doesn't perform - he doesn't perform just like yesterday. I think anyone who turned up to that garbage yesterday can see clearly that next season will be a tough one for us.

pretty certain he said on twitter the other day that he wasn't on facebook and that profiles pretending to be him should be ignored

all the best wishes to him....was an outstanding full back in that team we had there. I seem to remember (i may be wrong) him scoring a left foot screamer at the chaddy end...

Did you know that in almost 400 Premier League Chelsea home games at Stamford Bridge - Latics are the ONLY team to have not tasted defeat there. At some point they have beaten every other team.

£35 million? could end up being a complete waste of money...but i reckon 150 goals down the line, he'll be worth every penny..... Suarez in my opinion is as good as torres and play him with a big man, they could score a bucketfull

for the first few appearences, i thought he was a bit of a "luxury" player...Today, i saw him tracking back to tackle, filling in at full back when required. Definatly sign him up.

i've rarely left a ground feeling more angry! There was no way they deserved that today......i thought we played some good stuff and they were dreadful. Onwards and upwards is all i can say!

O'Gradey was gifted one and slightly fortunate with the other....have to say he did sod all else all game. Hazell, Mvoto and Trotters had him in their pockets and he didn't do a great deal against smaller full backs

have they given seat numbers out on the tickets or is it sit where you want for the ticket buyers? i hate nothing more than getting to my season ticket seat to find some moron has decided he can sit wherever he wants!

"Why not appeal for some local companies to see if they could lend them." Whose to say they haven't been on the phones begging for them? Just because they don't currently have hot air blowers on the pitch, doesn't mean they haven't tried!! Anyone who thinks the club aren't doing their best to get the games on is just being ridiculous....

Having seen his first performance against Plymouth...i'd hazard a guess that he was perhaps trying to hard to impress and managed to get himself sent off. Against Plymouth he was overly keen and overcomplicated things whereas today he was calm and assured - got the balance spot on. Just the fact that he's had so many clubs, i worry that he's one of those who impresses untill he lands a contract and then slopes into the background. Hope not, was awesome first half today!!

Think he had cramp in his calf or something - they tried to fill him with fluid at one point but he looked shattered. Right decision to bring him off, possibly a little later than it needed to be. Think it will give jones a kick up the backside as well having him here. Looks a quality player - some fantastic touches, turns and little passes

said it to the guy next to me - definatly got himself booked on purpose...

i dont want to come across as miserable or nit picky - but isn't the website a stream of revenue? As a former web developer, i'd have been shot for putting anything online that hadn't been checked properly. I mean it wouldn't take much to have a read through would it. It just doesn't look good does it Edit - It's now been changed and doesn't read all that bad now

Who wrote that peice on there about the youth team fa cup - it's absolutely shocking!! I've noticed this a few times now, somebody clearly isn't proof reading these things.

sounds like we were a tad unlucky in the end....got to raise questions about the team selection today - yes, we will definatly have lee and furman next week but the FA cup is our last chance to raise any pennies and thats gone now, I'd rather have been through and play with a different full back/midfielder next week

I can only assume they wont charge their own fans....I know a few dale part-timers who go every now and again. if they're recharged, they'll never visit the ground again so they'll be losing some of their own fans - and if they don't charge their own fans they cannot charge us.

Brill Lee Hazell Mvoto Jacobson Jones Furman Stephans Evina Taylor Tounkare Only thing i might consider changing there would be Taylor for Jones and Kelly in up top with Tonk.....I do think Jones' work rate could come in useful but he causes us to play narrow sometimes by drifting inside to his natural position....
