Quite interesting, the injury seems to have hit him hard.

He seems fully committed to getting fit and giving back to the club. Cant wait to see him bend one in the top bins again !! Hopefully sooner than later. He’ll always be a legend now no matter what for those special goals and ‘that’ goal

I hope that last clip with him still having to wear the surgical boot is some time ago and not recent. If recent it appears he will be off for many more weeks.
I wonder if he had a partial tear of his achilles tendon.

Seems to have been filmed around the Plymouth game.

It was the Plymouth game when he was still wearing it in that clip

It was the Oxford game he was watching on the TV and then it came up with the Plymouth game which was days later. So it's around two months old.

It's only very recent if the trees in Padiham keep their leaves until the end of november.

Have to admit I forgot he was even at the club still. Wish him a speedy recovery and return to form

Spoke to him at the last home game - he's absolutely gutted he's not involved and desperate to get fit to be back

Thanks for posting, very interesting, he certainly has a lot of re-hab to do. Hoping he comes back to his best and when he does we’re right up there.

Just listened to Parker’s preview to Stoke game. I’m pretty sure he said that “Benny is back on the grass”

Sadly he said that about Ramsey and Tresor a couple of months back so even if he is on the grass, could be 8-10 weeks away?

Must say, really happy to watch that and listen to him. He clearly wants to be back at it and contributing. We all know just how good he can be in this league, certainly going forward, just hoping that's been well timed that he could be in line to stick another in the top corner at deadwood.

Good luck Manny!! Can't wait to see you back.

Seems like it was a torn calf muscle. I did mine 15 years ago. It was the only injury where something just went when running (with no impact). Took me about 6 months for it to heal properly. So hopefully with all the expert medical resources he should be up and running soon.

Noticed his English has improved a lot as well.

Shows him to be committed which can only be good for the Club.
