Nigel Posted September 16, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted September 16, 2013 You don't run back on with a torn ACL/MCL/LCL. He'd have been crying with agony with a torn cruciate. Kind of agree - But he did go down and his first reaction was "thats me done" (or actions to imply as such) - Physio did his stuff and he went back to try and run it off - for about 20 seconds !!! Stefans right, the fact that he put his weight on the leg and managed a (albeit tentative) jog would point to a less serious injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I don't think our season comes crushing down even if Jores is off for six months. Clark will be fine covering for him. Really? Did you not see us last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted September 16, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) Re: BOF You're right, I would like Jores in there aswell. Just think Clark has done well so far, and am therefore not so worried. We have other worries though. Edited September 16, 2013 by AVTuco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Did you not see us last season? Yup, but I believe (and hope) he's better now and will take advantage of this opportunity (for him). Ofcourse it may be that a longer stretch of games will reveal the old Ciaran, but I hope not. I am a fan of Jores, so obviously want him to come back as soon as possible.

mole86 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 He has ruptured his ACL, as well as some other damage to the knee. Still too swollen to operate on but he is not expected to play again this season. Massive blow for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mole86 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Unfortunately I'm very serious, hopefully he can come through the rehab without any complications. Probably the worst player, apart from the obvious, that this could have happened to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mole86 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 How about a source? My job means I am sometimes privy to information (not about transfers so don't think this is some attempt to prove myself as an ITK). I'm not saying any more than that, I'm sure the club will announce this terrible news soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) That is the worst news I've heard for a very long time. Not just for us, but that could really mess up Okore's career. Jeez man... I will add though that surely he should be on crutches if it's still swollen if it is true and taking part in the team photo would be the least of our worries.

Robbie09 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Major blow if the news is confirmed. We're back to having 3 centre halves which isn't great considering Baker's injury record and the likelihood of suspensions etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 It also shows the folly of only signing one new centre back when we have possibly the worst defence in our history. Lambert is incompetent at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hants-villa72 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Seriously bad news if true, had very high hopes for him this season and could have serious long term effects to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
