Quote from: damon loves JT on November 13, 2015, 08:57:35 AMI remember seeing David Platt come out of VP on crutches with his leg in plaster, and still be fit to play in the next game.Was that after the 6-0 cup game against Port Vale in 1990? It was reported at the time that Aspin's tackle (it was a terrible challenge from behind) had broken Platt's leg.
I remember seeing David Platt come out of VP on crutches with his leg in plaster, and still be fit to play in the next game.
Just wondering if he is having a scan in France, does the French F A pay for his treatment also his wages to the Villa because he was on international duty

Not ideal but at least if we go down he can't just up and leave...anyway his defensive performances have contributed to our league position so I'm sure we'll cope.

Strange post.In a shopping centre on a phone in a kids soft play. Heavily abridged. First bit tongue in cheek second bit meant to point out that although promising him being out shouldn't alone create a panic. Its unfortunate, for him and us, and he has been bright but I think we can cover his absence.
