Pre Season Training

Post by tigerfeat » 02 Jan 2021, 09:22

Starts Monday I believe...please go steady this time :pray:
No I suppose there's a fine line between getting the squad in the shape the coach wants for the start of the season and picking up injuries in the two months to March

the question is how many of the lads will have a sick note before the season starts? never have I known a team pick so many off the field injuries up, is it down to sheer bad luck or something in training?

Like most things Gateman you should not keep blaming bad luck hence I hope the lessons of the last three years have been learnt

What’s to say the players haven’t been overdoing “extras” (training in their own time) which has contributed to our horrendous injury crisis??

Powell has stated in the past that the training sessions have been made as close to the game physicality as possible. Hence why theres so many injuries, Not a good idea in my opinion especially in the cold weather.

I wonder if Saints and Wigan do the same Saints hardly seem to have the same number of injuries as us

Perhaps Saints do the same but in very short bursts and not in full match fatigue situations which is what I assume we do,

Is sport really that important at a time like this? Its spreading through sports clubs/teams like wildfire, and then you hear of players of whatever sport been caught having parties etc.

The thing is sport gives people something to look forward too. So when people are locked down I think it's a good thing for sports to carry on were possible. Seen as how Covid only makes the elderly, obese and already ill people to have the worst effects I would have though proffesional sportsman would get over it to be honest.

I get what you are saying WB73, but it's professional sportsmen that keep getting caught out breaking the rules like the scrotes of society and that's why it's not going to go away.

Think teams need to come down a lot tougher on players caught not sticking to the rules. Their in a privileged position at the end of the day and should be a bench mark for how to behave.

To me it's irrelevant as to the profession of those who break the rules or laws in relation to Covid restrictions.
They are causing many people to loose their income and lives.
No matter which figures you read the number of deaths is horrifying and the impact on young families and many people on low and even medium incomes are in no small part to people who think they are too fit, young or healthy to care.
Many vulnerable people have not lived feckless lives that has rendered them vulnerable.
The Elite Sports continuong is probably more to do with the gambling industry than anything else.
Rant over.
