Every other player that has been injured - the club has said what the issue is 

Yes, as has been posted elsewhere, its a very very vague statement.

Of course not. But Im sure he has contacts at the club. Is anyone really believing the Miller is injured stuff?

If a deal wasnt close then that wouldnt be happening.....

Of course a deal is close, and of course I don't believe Miller is injured.

Most of us can guess where he's going, and I'm sure there are a few journos that definitely know too.

Tam's "I know something you don't know" act, however, is hardly the appropriate way to keep it confidential. Sounds more like a wean in the playground.

Aye right, just like some smart arses on here.

[grizzlyg]

After way club handled past 2 managerial appointments it will all be happening behind the scenes and away from media. When announcement due I am sure they will tell us.

Absolute joke. 
 

Serious, SERIOUS questions need to start being asked about our recruitment of players and/or our training methods.

This is not down to bad luck.

You ok hun?

[joewarkfanclub]

Lennon Miller in the pics the club relelased of todays training, so I guess he isnt on a plane to Italy just yet.....

[weeyin]

Even if they have agreed terms, I imagine it will take some time to sort out the work permits (thanks Brexit), and international clearance etc. Plus printing Mugnaio on 10,000 shirts takes a wee while too.

Glad to know we have people in charge that care 👍

We certainly seem to suffer an inordinate amount of serious injuries to loan players: Biereth, Eseosa, Mair, Montgomery, Kaletea, and Vale in the past couple of years.  That does seem very unusual. Some or all of these absences will be genuine but I just wonder if some of them are due to other reasons, which the clubs and player won't want publicised eg. homesickness, behaviour, failure to settle?

I think that's known as Stamatelopoulos syndrome Dave🤔

[MelvinBragg]

In terms of injuries, questions are being asked of training methods and the signing of players with patchy injury records. A lot of these injuries are occuring in training, what are the playing surfaces like at Dalziel Park?

Just asking the question if it seems to be happening over several managers with (I'm assuming) slightly different training regimes and slightly different transfer policies...

We've had injuries to non loanee players too and to be fair Biereth was crocked on the field of play and Mair got a broken thumb from a freak accident in training.

Must be other players going also? 🤣🤣

Sounds like he'll be playing in SK's preferred attacking formation.

That leaves us a bit short on goalkeeper options surely? Unless Ox is due back.

[weeyin]

I'd guess Ox is back given he was available on the bench last week ahead of Connelly.

Although it wouldn't be terrible to go back to the days of 2 subs, with no backup goalie. That always made things interesting.

[joewarkfanclub]

Didnt Ox play 30 minutes against Hertha?

Or did I just imagine that?

He did. I just assumed he wasn't 100% for the Rangers game.

Of course, it could be JBA prefers Ward - we'll find out soon enough.
