Young Injured

[Burnhamgull]

Just as we're trying to stabilise a squad and build something, Young picks up a knee injury in training today.

Fingers crossed it's nothnig serious but it's a big loss in what is a weak department.

Obviously Young is our stand-out player and will always be missed but I would say midfield is where we look the strongest, especially in the sort of attacking midfield area.

Kellerman (who was going to sign on loan) also long term injured. Worryingly Cox has stated that the money left in the budget for a striker/s will now have to be deployed elsewhere. makes the player fund all the more important!

The Young injury sounds bad-cruciate ligament at worst;twisted knee at best.If its the former won't play again this season;the latter will likely entail a long lay-off.Awfully bad luck for club and player.

Not what we needed at this point.
I can see Topliss playing at fullback and Courtney Richards returning to midfield. Kellerman is a blow though. Bugger
