Just when we were hoping that after a decent pre-season he could kick on and be really useful for us.
Fucking gutted. Even if it is 6 months till he is back - it could take a lot longer to get his sharpness and match fitness back. Expect his return to be like he was for us last season after he signed, i.e showing glimpses, but not really getting upto speed. Probably next season before he gets going and that's if he is the same player.

Whoever authorised that game has alot to answer for.
Last season it was defenders, this season it's attackers!
This is a real sickner. Really pissed off now, added to yesterdays news about Maguire.
You wonder if we had better training facilities (better pitches) would this injury to Bodin have happened? Neil likes to train the players very hard apparently.
The silence on the new training complex is deafening.

What game?
Double Whammy of the worst kind!
Really sickener just as season is about to start. Need replacements, I think.
They must be as gutted as we are, best wishes to both.

Hope Browne & Pearson's injuries next season are not too serious.

You've only gone and done it now haven't you! 😛

Just being that alone can't be fun.

A somewhat exhaustive pre-season has left the club's only decent striker (Maguire) with an 8-week (plus) injury that is commonly made more likely to happen through over-training; Maguire should have been wrapped in the proverbial cotton wool for the entire pre-season. Bodin's injury may sound like a freak accident but one wonders how hard the players are being drilled. Tired legs can commonly result in this kind of loss-of-balance, footing and twisting injury. One wonders how much rest the players have had in the last fortnight, in pursuit of stamina and fitness.
As another has contributed, the door opens for Horgan who, in my book, has a better eye for a killer pass or angle than Bodin and anyone else on the pitch. An early end to a promising career, with that never-the-same-player-again type of injury.
Questions ought to be directed towards the club's fitness coach who may want to re-study the concept of rest for a professional footballer preparing for a season of 50+ full on football matches. Too late now. Our goal threat has gone but let's hope a lesson has been learned.

Of course they have been drilled hard. They need to get back up to match fitness

Which two of them won't be for 2 months and 6-8 months respectively.

Say only decent striker but moult played well last season effectively scoring 2 in 4 or 5 as he only came on for 15 mins most games. He's played really well so far in Pre season games and now has a full press season under his belt and under Neils way of playing. I do say that maguire could have scored 20 this season...now down to 10-15 as he'll miss a min of 8 games but I can also see moult scoring 10 this season due to impressive appearances scoring a few and playing well in terms of holding the ball up, positioning and the amazing little touches and balls he makes in every game I've seen him play in

He had a similar injury four years ago and was out for nine months with it. Could be the same knee although not sure.
