Team News - Injuries and Suspensions etc

[Caley Mad In Berks]

I'd like to see Hughes given a try to see if he lives up to the big build up the Cambridge fan on here gave him a few weeks ago.

To be honest lads I think John Hughes would struggle in midfield #banter

Draper will be a massive miss tonight IMO. 

And here was me thinking he's a massive Mr.

Jamie Durent tweeting we have 10 players out tonight, Wedderburn the latest with Draper suspended.

Feckin good job our players aren't horses.

From Courier:

Having Williams and Draper available again is a huge boost for Hughes, given that he was without nine players through injury on Tuesday night.

The Inverness manager admitted post-match that youngsters Jason Brown and Blair MacLennan were just on the bench to “make up the numbers”, leaving Liam Hughes and Ryan Williams as the only available outfield replacements.

Nat Wedderburn is the latest to join the growing injury list, picking up a groin injury in training on Tuesday, while Andrea Mbuyi-Mutombo will be doubtful with a calf strain. James Vincent and Josh Meekings (both knee) could make the bench at Easter Road, but Aaron Doran, Richie Foran, David Raven, Alex Fisher and Dean Brill remain out.

[Scarlet Pimple]

"A calf strain"...? I'm just cowed by the thought.

Beats me how so many young and very physically fit players can get injuries such as this.?

Don't they warm up  properly and stretch adequately prior to the game? Why does this happen?

 

[Scarlet Pimple]

Oh! I understand now. It's the cold of Winter football. Seriously,should be wearing their Long Johns shouldn't they?

Oh well, another justifiable reason for playing during the summer months. But the beaks in the SFA never learn.....

[Robert]

Carl Tremarco is apparently suspended for the Hamilton game. 

Fingers crossed for a good performance and result in Perth. A two goal win will get us back in the top six, or am I being overly optimistic?

[Alex MacLeod]

Polworth may not be available tonight. Apparantly he has an affliction known as elephantearism brought about by copious amounts of managerial love and affection.

[bdu98196]

So whats wrong with Raven, anyone know? He was in the stand y'day and looked to be moving freely enough. Seems like he has been missing a good while, yet nobody knows why or when he will be back and is a player we miss badly.

[Alex MacLeod]

Josh tweeted he's excited about getting boots back on tomorrow

Recurring foot injury and he had to sit out before it ended his career .

should be back soon

I'm talking rubbish! I've just looked at the latest SFA list and although he does have a one match suspension, it doesn't kick-in until after the County game.
I apologise for my mistake - as it also 'mislead' the 'Team for County' thread. I'm the one who should be suspended!

A load of surnames, but "Andrea".  Is that not a bit Shaunesque?

Good informative article. I would love to see Aaron given a new contract and the opportunity to establish himself again as a first team regular.

[+DoofersDad]

Good to hear he is well on the way to recovery.  Hope he gets signed up soon as he has been a big miss this season. 

[bdu98196]

With no game last wknd any news on more recoveries at all? Raven, Vincent or Mutumbo fit again?

[Renegade]

Whatever happened to Alex Fisher?  I've not heard anything about him for months!

[DEANO96]

Glad to hear doran is making a good recovery...would be delighted to see him get a run this season, and the difference he would make should be competing for fourth or fight against killie would be huge. I also hope the club give him a contract for next season because he is a big player for us and seem a willing to stay. 

Hopefully Raven, brill and mutumbo will be back shortly so they can all get a run in the team and prove themselves worthy. 

Alex fisher has a chipped bone and had been ruled out for 2-3 months as far as I know

[Robert]

According to BBC, Vincent and Mutombo fit and Raven not far away. 

Tomorrow's team selection will be interesting against an on form Motherwell. 

Hooefully the style and passion shown against County is on show again!
