Chair Poku JCS were all available for selection today said the Club !! 18:06 - Oct 18 with 11332 viewsnumptydumpty

According to the club announcement mid week.

Not one in the squad.

Appreciate also was an international week, hence why Burrell and Saito were on the bench. Yes, we have been on a very decent run, but announcing all three available for selection and not one of them, even on the bench. Who are the club misleading exactly. I did expect, at least one of the three to be on the bench. If it was to mislead Millwall, it was unsuccessful. Almost like the club are saying this one is on JS. There is clearly some kind of deception with announcements still which I find strange as its completely unnecessary currently IMHO.


JCS - I doubt would have been selected anyhow, but more likely to be on the bench if Morrison is out injured against Swansea.

Chair - In hindsight would have been the perfect sub for this game, as to how the game was played out.

Poku - also would have been interesting for the last fifteen minutes.


I would say if they are indeed actually available for selection, myself personally would have all three on the bench at Swansea. Morgan, Morrison and Frey would be who they could replace for me. If, not one of them, is to be seen against Swansea, you would have to question that the club is putting out squad news that is actually a lie - misleading at the very least. Hope this is not so, as for me, they have seemed to be learning from past mistakes.

Ok fair enough. I just thought a bad injury would be out until Christmas as an example. But I take your point it’s not minor.

On hamstring injuries, is it always as set as what you say though? Doesn’t it depend on when the player starts running again. Maybe he didn’t progress as planned. But I just don’t agree that we’re being lied to in this case. I also dont recall the club saying he’s be back for Wrexham, I thought it was back training in September. Anyway, let’s hope he’s at least on the bench on Wednesday.


It's definitely not minor, James, agreed.

Those guidelines are fairly solid, in my humble experience.

As was said on the podcast, the regime have learnt lessons and improved generally.

But this sort of sh*t still rankles.


So as all 3 playing for the Development Squad today NOT available for Swansea?

Well I thought that might mean they could be on the bench for Wednesday. But we’ll see.

Apparently a Bournemouth player stamped on him, which is why he went off injured.

Poku scored after 6 minutes. Rs won 4-1 with other goals from Putman, Coomes (7 goals in 9 apps) and O'Brien (5 in 8).
Poku replaced on 45. Ilias on 66.

Yeh it’s absolutely not one to fck about with. We’ve been v guilty of this in the past, particularly Beale and Willock as detailed above.

Which is why that optimistic prognosis on Kwame (a second hammy of the year for him) was always a chinny reckon.

Sorry is that true that JCS went off injured again ?

Also, the ‘all 3 players are available for selection’ press release is really the crux of the issue here .
Brian made that point brilliantly earlier in the thread.

Quite clearly the comms between the head coach , the medical team and the media team are not as they should be .
No one expected any of them to start or even all 3 of them to be on the bench but as Clive mentioned, the fact that none were even on the bench was peculiar.
The ‘club’ said Poku would be back for Wrexham . He wasn’t .

Fans are allowed to ask about it .

But yet people still jump to the defence of the club when even the most basic of questions are asked about them.

Has this backloading thing got anything by to do with it?

Doesn’t this sort of thing mean that we’ll reach peak fitness next March?

Where did the club say Poku would be back for Wrexham? I've only seen this on LFW

I think that was the club estimate when he first got the injury.

The official update I can see pre Wrexham was

"𝗞𝘄𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝗸𝘂 and 𝗜𝗹𝗶𝗮𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿 continue their individual rehab programmes. Both have returned to the pitch and will integrate into squad training in the coming weeks as they build towards match fitness."

I don't see anything inherently wrong with that statement. If not satisfied with the given timescale, I'm then not sure why anyone would want the club to rush it and risk a Willock mk2 situation

Mention of Wrexham I’ve only seen on here, so you’re right on that. But pretty certain I saw something about Poku being back after first international break. Or was this on west London sport maybe?
