Sloshed Joe Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Fondop did talk about playing through the pain of his groin injury v Newport. His goal celebs probably didn’t help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was definitely indicating an injury to his groin at Newport so not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 That’s our only true No.9 gone already along with the promising Luamba who maybe out for the season, it never rains n all that…… I just hope Obadeyi can stay fit because he offers something different and is tricky and quick. I don’t know whether it’s down to this being a sub standard league but he looks a much better player now than I remember him in his previous stint!

Worcester Owl Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Injuries are always a concern, but more so now as we have 9 games in 31 days coming up starting with Colchester on Saturday. Four of these are against relegation rivals. We really need to get through that lot without any more long-term injuries if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he seemed a bit grumpy about being asked about it and just wanted to talk about the players involved v Bradford. Could just be frustration but something might’ve happened which has added to his reluctance to talk about it. This on Twatter... @johnclarke1981 What is going on with Fondop? Shez said he was fit on Friday before the Bradford game but was obviously not in the squad. Then in his interview after the game he was asked about Fondop and quite sharply said he didn't want to talk about him. Nothing said since If Fondop is injured why are we not being told or updated? This is exactly the type of situation with the club that is so effing annoying and then the rumour-mill starts rolling, which is no good to anyone. The team gets a striker who could start banging them in, then all of a sudden he's not in the squad and there is zilch information forthcoming. Just tell the fans what the situation is, FFS!

It’s common for a manager to bend the truth in a press conference. Bradford will have been fully expecting Fondop to start right up until the team news were released. Part and parcel of the game these days. For what it’s worth, he is definitely injured and nothing else untoward. He was limping significantly after Newport game at FT, and holding his groin, and I saw him on Sheepfoot lane on Saturday too, still limping.

I do believe he is injured and nothing more than that but why has there been no official news and surely that kind of ruse only works the once? There's no need for any cloak and dagger stuff.

SweeperKeeper Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Come on, Shez has managed us long enough that you should know what he's like. He gives very little away to the press at the best of times, and likes to keep back info for surprise value. He's here to win us games, not to keep us and the papers happy with gossip.

I know what Shez is like and if Fondop turns up on the team sheet tomorrow, then I will be more than happy. Those clowns at the helm have sown so much mistrust and non-transparency into the club, it comes natural to be suspicious of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boyyou Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Fondop has had an operation on an abductor injury and is out for 10 weeks. With Luamba also out for many weeks, it looks like we are stuck with what we have. Fingers crossed we don't get more injuries in the busy March schedule. The team will need all our support on the run-in. No point moaning about individuals. Let's get right behind them - 12th man and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obvious from Shezs pre Carlisle interview he is not at all happy with Fondops tweet about his op. Best to keep a bit of mystery about who is and who isn't available I think.

It's much better to be upfront about these things and stop messing the fans around, we are not stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
