Grealish off injured after 30 odd minutes today!!

Anyone got details or severity?

Listening to the local radio coverage of Stevenage V Notts County it would seem that the Stevenage players singled out our Jack as the man who can and for 30 minutes gave him a bit of a seeing to. The injury sounded no more than a dead leg and I think Derry took him off as more of a precaution than anything else- good man.


Stevenage are a dirty bunch and are well known for dishing it out.

Anybody seen the Shay Given save that the Middlesbrough fans are raving about? It got mentioned on Goals On Sunday as the Boro fans were requesting it and there were comments along the lines of it being the best save they've seen in 30 years.

He seems happy and in really good form for them. The sensible thing for all parties would be to sort out a deal relieving us of much of his wages and him staying. I would assume he has decent roots in the area having played for Newcastle for so long

How much do Boro pay out nowadays, I'd imagine they'd have severely costcutted now they've been away from the prem for a good few years.

With us not playing at the weekend, I'm probably going to Notts County v Walsall so will report on how Grealish gets on against a good league 1 team if he's fit.

Any chance you can
  • Spell his surname correctly.
  • Fix the link

Thank you for making the changes.

Good to see Hutton back in action. Was kind of hoping someone would do this to Suarez yesterday!

That's a cracking tackle.  Did the guy get set off?

It may sound harsh but this is part of the point of sending him out on loan. In the lower leagues they will hit you with stuff you'd never dream of seeing in the reserves or youth leagues. Ideally, of course, you'd prefer him not to endure tackles which might cripple his career before it's begun, but he's got out of it without a serious injury and will be tougher for the experience.

Mind you, if I had to play against him I might kick him as well. That Notts County fan writer wasn't lying, he really does glide across the pitch, his technique is really secure.
