Injuries 14:18 - Mar 17 with 1054 views | OldFart71 | My question is and it doesn't just apply to Town is why players are sustaining so many injuries. Back in the days of the George Burley's, Micky Mill etc they played far more games than they do now. The squads weren't as big and the amount of subs far less. Yes we had injured players such as the Beat who had doggy knees but recently I was watching Butch and Russell Osman saying they had 4 games in 8 days. Can you imagine that now. | | | | |

Weekly cortisone injections crippled a good number of footballers. Most were knackered at 32 | | | |
