Has anyone heard any news concerning Robinson's injury? It didn't look good, he was down a long time.
Robinson
He stretched for the ball so I suspect hamstring or groin.
He was supposed to be in today for checks. Hamstring and could be a 4 to 6 week rest for him. The Irish training methods, or lack of them ( they just play 90 minute games it seems) is being blamed by PNE. for both his and Maguires injuries. Hopefully the new regime might change this.
Ben Pearson should be ok. Though a few quid light as he will be heavily fined for turning up late yesterday.!

When you say Robinson and Maguire's injuries are being blamed on Ireland by PNE, do you mean by PNEs management? Or by the fans? I haven't seen anything put out yet by the management blaming the Irish training methods.chorleythehord;n3405224 said:

We will miss Robbo, he's become a great asset to PNE, always one who is expected to score now. Get fit soon Callum.

And he plays a critical defensive role too. Great player. Will be badly missed.
chorley says Ben Pearson should be fit. I've not yet read the LEP or other threads... so I hope there is good reason for that optimism because after yesterday, I'd have guessed that there'd be little chance.
OP
Thanks. Fingers crossed for Robbo then. For once I wish I was from Burnley - I'd have more fingers to cross allegedly!

The old management team at ROI ran them like dogs. They played 11 v 11s all the time in training.
I specifically remember Alan Browne coming back from int. duty at the end of last season, and the club weren't very happy because he was absolutely knackered.

Neil did after the game - not blame as much as saying its no coincidence

AN just said he's going to be out for 3 months omfg
Out for at least three months according to AN - may need surgery. This is a huge blow for everyone - in his last few games Robinson has been playing at a new level of capability. We just have to hope that he, Johnson and Maguire all return fully fit and fired up. These things happen but we seem to getting more of it than most at the moment.
Lets hope that if we suffer a bad patch in December that people use their heads and don't get on the manager's and team's back and realise what we have to deal with. After Bodin's pre-season form it's fair to say we're currently missing 4 of our best attacking players.
If we carry on extending this gap between ourselves and the drop zone then Alex Neil would be working miracles.

Think with a regular run of games Barker could have a big impact on this side, and hopefully will limit the impact of Robbo’s injury.
This has been a freak season, we just need to get through it and avoid relegation.

Didn't we have a 'freak' injury season last season, or was it the one before?
