Firstly, centre back, Steven Taylor “tweaked” his knee in the thrilling 2-2 league encounter with the Midlands club, and the Times’s North East football corresspondent, George Caulkin, had reported that he would be out for the entire season. In the second FA Cup fiasco meanwhile, Fenham hitman, Shola Ameobi feel badly on his shoulder, and old midfield grunter, Nicky Butt, “felt his calf” in the build up to the cup game.
Hughton said on the carnage:
“Steven tweaked his knee against West Brom and we’ll learn more this week on the extent of that one.”
On the Shola shoulder scenario, he continued:
“Shola landed awkwardly on his shoulder at West Brom and he’s another one we assessed but we don’t think it’s anything major”.
Finally, on Butt he concluded:
“Butty felt his calf before the West Brom game and we’ll know more about him later today”.
Hope all the idiots who obviously know cock all about football are embarrassed by their views over the last few months.
Injuries come to every club, expecially a club with a thread bare squad, were the same players are playing every minute of every week.
Ah well, I hope you live and learn.
