Brady has a bit of a setback
Martin O'Neill hasn't included Robbie Brady in the Republic of ireland squad. He said: "I spoke to Robbie & his manager. He was going to play a game on Monday but had a bit of a setback. Sean Dyche said every time it looks like he's ready he picks up a knock. It's only a minor knock but it's tough to bring him in when he hasn't played games."

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
Maybe we should get our injury updates from Martin in the future ?
He’s just told us more than the club has in the last 3 months !

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
It's touch and go, we'll have to see what the physio says. It's all about fine margins.
Don't you sometimes wish, just occasionally, you know, like once in a while, maybe not too often but now and then, our beloved club were just a little, how would you put it, less secretive about things? The fans are like mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed on bullsh!te.

Why are people so keen to get chapter and verse on player injury / recovery status? What difference does it make whether the club says something or not?

Same. We'll know he's back when we get team news one week and he's in it. His fitness issues are his, don't see why everyone needs to know.

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
It's hardly breaking the Hippocratic Oath to tell us he's close to being ready but won't be playing in an U23 game as planned this week because he's had a minor setback. Which is enough information to keep most people happy.

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
Are you sure it was the air ambulance and not those pesky aliens. They got him once before along with Defour. Thought they'd performed their operatrions and let them go? Maybe Brady's sex change operation didn't go according to plan.Dyched wrote:Funny you say that. I was in Costa but was distracted by the air ambulance. Maybe you’d been and left by that point?

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
In transfer windows they tell us fans that certain players are due back meaning they dont need to look at replacements.

Is that from the same people that were saying Steven Defours career was finished?
Is not just time trusted our staff and if we need to know anything they'll tell. We don't need to know his every move.

Is that a real question ?BurningBeard wrote:Why are people so keen to get chapter and verse on player injury / recovery status? What difference does it make whether the club says something or not?
You really don’t understand why supporters of a football club would want to be updated on one of their star players recovery status ?
The difference it makes is pretty obvious but i’ll give you the answer just in case - so they have an idea when the player might be coming back to play for the club they support every week.
Would it be so onerous to tell the fans he’s had a setback and when he is likely to be back ?
You must be able to tell from this forum and from how many fans speak to each other that a lot are wondering how the likes of Defour and Brady are doing.
Do you always post rhetorical questions ? (Don’t answer that !!!)
Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
Sound like good news to me.
I didn't think he was so close, though I too don't see how it would help me if I did know Robbie's detailed medical progress by the day...

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
That’s 2 people who have referred to fans wanting detailed medical progress or chapter and verse
Who said they wanted that ?
“Robbie Brady has had a setback and we hope he will be able to play an u23 game in 2 or 3 weeks”......is not exactly the Magna Carta.

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
Football fans for as long as I remember are interested in when players are due back from injury - especially when they know players are close to returning and these are “star” players.
It’s a big boost to fans when someone like Defour and Brady are back on the bench......bit different if Phil Bardsley picked up a knock !!

The uncomfortable truth is that the Club now communicates the absolute minimum to both shareholders and fans.Guich wrote:Fair enough TVC - but I doubt the club is so careful with info just to annoy the fans.
For the reason why, then someone like Clive Holt will have the answer. Some four years ago even the annual AGM was denied to shareholders and that has been the case ever since. Publishing of the financial accounts is also now withheld until the last possible moment.

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
He’ll be back when he’s back. No sense in getting het up about it; or using this as an opportunity to infer that you have some inside information(which comes across as a bit needy).
As for when he Financial Accounts are published, I have no idea, and quite simply don’t mind about that. As a fan, that’s simply not my remit.

Am I interested in why the accounts are published later ? I couldn't give a **** to be honest. How does it change your life if it is June or December ? What is the biggest dividend you have had returned from the club ?
Granted I have only ever had 1 share in the club from the season ticket pledge, but my season or view of last season won't change if we made 30 or 40 million and it is announced tomorrow or new years eve. I just don't get the hurt you feel at not getting your hands on the books of a business that isn't yours.
Injury updates is nothing to do with the accounts, but if a player was announced as pencilled in for a game and had been training with the 1st team but then missed the game I would presume he had had a slight setback. If he was out for the next 4 months I imagine it would be announced. I don't need a daily or weekly countdown to when we are likely to see the player.
Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
You mean you presume it would be announced if he was out for 4 months like they did with Defour ?

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
Paul......the point I'm making is that up to 2014 all such information was readily available to fans at the earliest opportunity and questions could be asked to the Board. Then four years ago something changed, and that reason has never been disclosed.Tall Paul wrote:I suspect that, like most businesses, it's because they don't want to release information that may be useful to their competitors unless and until they are required to.
Dyche also has exactly the same approach to injury updates and communicates as little as possible to fans.

They haven't given an update on Tarkowski are you ok with this ?

If he misses this Saturday and then pulls out of the England squad then yes I would like to know when our best defender is likely to return or how serious the injury has been.
I won’t answer your other stupid question but if you are saying that you do not care about the club providing an update on injuries that’s absolutely fine....but a large number of fans are interested and it’s pretty dumb to ask why they are interested just like it would be dumb if I asked you why you were not interested

Oh yes it is (said in his best pantomime voice). We pay their wages, we have a right to know, they can't keep us in the dark like this, it's just not right, we should just boycott every game until.....oh shut up.deanothedino wrote:To be fair, it's none of our business.
Being serious for a minute (but no longer) Burnley FC must be the most secretive club in the land. It's the same with the proverbial transfer (undisclosed) fee. Other clubs actually keep fans informed and, whilst I know they have a right to keep things to themselves and they are doing no wrong I continually ask the question,'why'? Especially with things like the Brady injury, they must be aware by now that fans are a tad concerned about the lad and our prospects without him (and other key players at various times). Would it break some Masonic type code of conduct for them to actually tell us occasionally what is going on?
That's it, I'm done. Answers on a postcard please.

I'm amazed teams aren't more secretive so their opponents have less idea who and in what formation they will be playing against and are less able to fully prepare.

Re: Brady has a bit of a setback
I'd assume that they don't want to release the accounts before the January transfer window and, if they're going to hold it until after that, they may as well just file based on the statutory requirement.Royboyclaret wrote:Aren't you interested in the slightest as to the reason why?
Or they did a best practice review and discovered that none of the other Premier League clubs (other than where there are statutory requirements) file their accounts earlier than they're legally obliged to.
