Libor Kozak

Counselling for a leg break? 

Why not?  The rugby incident sounded horrendous.  There's many on here who will never forget the sound of Alex Cropley's leg being broken and we were much further away from the incident.

Counselling for a leg break? 

Yes. It can be horrific.

I don't see how that's funny. It's not the movies. In real life people don't always just move on with things and seeing bad injuries can have an affect on people.

The pictures of Nilis, Bust, Freddie etc still turn my stomach so I can how a player involved could benefit from counselling.

Add Sid to that list of leg breaks that 'turned the stomach'.
That was absolutely horrible.

It's not funny at all.

I had a compound fracture in98. Was off work for 7 months and out of football for around 18 months. But that was more down to me being cautious than anything. But if Kozak's is a compound fracture it would have to be operated on immediately is I assume it's not.

Best wishes for a smooth and speedy recovery libor.

I remember when Djibril Cisse broke his leg playing for Liverpool.  He seemed to be in mid stride when the broken leg went onto the floor.

Still makes me shudder today.

He had surgery today as far as I know.

Counselling for the people who fell into him, he wasn't really in the right frame of mind for it.  I personally was the other side of the ruck with about 5 players in the way but the people right by him were very badly shaken.  I've been on the pitch for 3 or 4 genuinely serious injuries (1 life-threatening broken neck) and that is the only time I've seen people so upset by one.  It's worth pointing out that the call for the paramedics was made by a qualified GP so I guess he asked for someone to come out because of the reactions.

Yeah that was a horror one but didn't Cisse recover ridiculously quickly from that? Pretty sure he was injured in November of that season and was back playing in the champions league final and a few games before.

Hopefully all being well Kozak will be o.k for pre season training in 6 months time.

I broke my hand once. Heard the breaks.

S'nuffin.

I broke my toe once. I've also had to experience a cracked rib. That's nothing compared to something like this.

We aren't all as hard as you though.

I think Cisse scored on his return against us. Typical!
