All the shit we’ve been through makes me think small things like upkeep are actually important. Now we’re seemingly on the way back up the club is thriving on identity even without a home. If your ground is getting shabby then you can bet your training ground is too and that lack of a shit filters down to the players.
I have a few friends that work at the club, my wife is good mates with the groundsman's wife and one of the junior physios is someone I play 5 a side with.
The whole club is underfunded and everyone has one hand tied behind their back.
In recent seasons, we have not had more injuries that other clubs but the amount of reoccurrences of injuries and the length of time players take to recover is alarming and not normal. Sounds like we have decent people working at the club, who are skilled in what they do, but feels like we are cutting costs on all these important aspects.
Emyr Huws, Teddy Bishop, Jack Lankester, Tom Adeyemi, the list goes on. Players who have picked up injuries and then struggled and struggled and struggled. Kane Vincent-Young was tipped to be back just after Christmas and it's now March. He's still not quite back.
David McGoldrick was injured on and off for 4 years here and he went to Sheffield United last season and played pretty much every game.
The whole regime under Evans screams of being not properly funded.
