[AFCCOVENTRY]

Rumour is Deegan did a two footed tackle on him

 

[Otis]

And shouted 'Up the RA' while doing it.

 

[Sutty]

At least that means we can't sell him.

Every cloud...

 

[Tomh111]

If its true that Deegan went in like that on him thenwhat a Grade A bell end he is.

 

[torchomatic]

I love the ''rumour is'' posts.

 

[RichieGunns]

If its true then I'm glad he's gone...

Who'd want a player who is willing to do a two legged tackled not only to the oppersition but also to his own team mates...

 

[Otis]

I love the ''rumour is'' posts.

I thought AFC was joking.

 

[ccfcway]

if only Deegan showed that sort of passion during a game, he may have been an asset.

(im not suggesting he should injure people btw)

 

[georgehudson]

really hope that's not true, if it is, what do we have in CM ?

 

[tippex9]

From what I was told it's a muscle injury and not a result of a tackle.

 

[TheBoss]

Deegan must have bloody long legs to badly tackle someone from Edinburgh, complete idiots!

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

And you know how long Thomas has been injured for do you? Deegan has obviously trained with us for some of this week

 

[covcity4life]

so is he out for 2 months with this muscle injury or not?

 

[Bertola]

i've heard the Deegan rumour too, and considering who told me, I believe it sadly. whether you do or not is up to you

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

I really assumed the Deegan line was a joke?

Cet: Thomas crocked by deegan

THOMAS CROCKED BY DEEGAN
CONOR Thomas is set to miss the first month of Coventry City's League One season.

The home-bred midfielder damaged ankle ligaments in training last week ­ and the Telegraph understands that the injury was a parting shot from Gary `Pitbull' Deegan.
Our information is that the Irishman caught Thomas with a clattering tackle on Thursday, 24 hours before heading north to sign for Hibernian, Andy Thorn was apparently furious at the challenge but yesterday declined to go into detail beyond confirming: “It's a nasty injury and we're probably looking at Conor being out for four or five weeks.“
It's an untimely setback for Thomas who was one of the candidates to fill the holding role in Thorn's midfield diamond following Sammy Clingan's departure. Centre-back Reece Brown was tried there at Accrington last Saturday with Academy youngster Billy Daniels and trialist Steve Jennings each given 45 minutes in the role at Port Vale, John Fleck is also set to miss City's Capital One Cup trip to Dagenham & Redbridge on Tuesday after tweaking his thigh at Accrington but Thorn explained: “It's a minor problem which should clear up in five or six days so, all being well, he will be fine for our first league game at yeovil.“
nathan Cameron, returning from his knee injury, suffered a minor setback at the weekend and will be anxious to make up lost time so he doesn't drop further down the centre-back pecking order while full-back Cyrus Christie, out of action since tearing his ligaments at Burnley in april, hopes to be back in training in a couple of weeks.
Midfielder david Bell, however, is facing another two months on the sidelines as he recuperates from his hip operation.
thorn will have another look at Jennings and Hungarian striker Peter Poloskei when the Sky Blues wrap up their pre-season programme with a trip to League two Bristol rovers on Saturday. Chris Hussey, who has been suffering from a virus, is expected to be available for the friendly.

 

[Astute]

Looks as though we can make two teams at the minute. One fit and the other unfit.

 

[UNCLE MONTY]

Same old story then! Deegan is a cock, well rid of him

 

[Gint11]

Poor lad seems to pick up injuries at the minute. I think we have enough cover in that part of the diamond.

Deegan is no longer at our club. He has moved to Hibs.

It shouldn't bother us much now how long he is out injured.

 

[Otis]

He strained a muscle dickhead.

OOPS!!

I think he was refering to Thomas.

 

[skybluesam66]

bell out for 2 months

 

[Otis]

With every dark cloud.

 

[stupot07]

I wouldn't say that Otis, he's a proven championship player - he'd have found league one a cakewalk

 

[CJparker]

So now we need Jennings without delay!!!

 

[Nick]

I love the ''rumour is'' posts.

Especially when they are right

 

[torchomatic]

Right as usual, Otis.

 

[Otis]

Thanks.

As long as you know it and I know it that's fine.

 

[sw88]

So now we need Jennings without delay!!!

As long as he's fit enough to play! Otherwise we'd be signing another crocked player who will takes weeks to get fit!

 

[Otis]

We need a fit, healthy first team 11 going into the season I feel and cannot gamble on players who are not quite match fit.

 

[Astute]

As long as he's fit enough to play! Otherwise we'd be signing another crocked player who will takes weeks to get fit!

He was fit enough to play a couple of days ago.

 

[Otis]

Ahh, but that was a friendly match and friendlies don't mean anything.

 

[CJparker]

So does anyone know what made Deegan give Thomas this fantastic goodbye present? Resentful of Thomas behind picked ahead of him most of last season maybe?
