Bonnissel 37 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 From what Ive heard from my source, he tried to jump over gregg wylde whilst coming out of the team bus, gregg ducked and laff fell and stopped himself with his hand, twisting his finger/knuckle round the wrong way in the process.Twat.

konker 1 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 My brother received the same injury as ascribed to Kyle, he was riding in the Tour of Lombardy, when he was involved in a pile up on a mountain descent at about 45kph. He was back on his machine in moments, he was splinted at the end of the stage and soon after fitted with a plastic cast, which looks like a mitt with a finger for the damaged digit. He has not lost a days training or racing since it happened. It is very hard to believe that Kyle got that sort of damage by falling while disembarking a bus, very hard indeed.

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 He shouldn't have been picking his bloody nose at the same time Irrespective of similar injuries they can prevent a sportsperson in different ways depending on the types of sports they do and as none of us can actually turn round and say exactly what the type or severity of the injury might be, and even though it is a broken finger we don't know if it affected the nerves in any way which could affect the whole arm.Apart from that I hope the idiot, and yes I do mean that, he admits it himself is back playing as soon as possible, and by all accounts Walter was pretty angry with him because of his stupidity so at least he knows how much of a plonker he has been.

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I thought this would already have been postedKYLE LAFFERTY last night branded himself a CLOWN and confessed he has let down Rangers boss Walter Smith again. Lafferty is facing six weeks on the sidelines after breaking a finger in his left hand. The Northern Ireland star suffered the freak injury during horseplay with team-mate Gregg Wylde at Murray Park. He said: "I was messing about while coming off the bus last Wednesday morning. "I fell and fractured my wedding finger in two different places. "Walter Smith didn't say anything at first, but I knew he was furious. "We were already down to the bare bones for the Manchester United game. "I don't know if I was starting against United, but I'd like to think I would have been because we were struggling for numbers. "Walter had to go out and give a team-talk to the players who were featuring. "I apologised to him at the game and just said my stupidity had left me looking like a clown - and given him a bigger headache." Lafferty would have started against United. But livid boss Smith - already without FIVE established stars - was forced instead to pitch in rookie kid Kyle Hutton. Smith was still so angry last Friday he made it clear he didn't want anyone mentioning what happened 'within earshot' of him. Lafferty - struggling to be fit for the January 2 derby against Celtic - added: "Because of my messing about I'm facing the possibility of a decent period out of the team. "But that's my punishment and I've got to accept it. I'm p****d off with myself. "It was wrong for me to be messing about on the day of the game." Lafferty could miss up to eight SPL and European games unless his injury heals quicker.Read more: http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/3252307/Im-a-clown-and-Ive-let-Walter-down.html#ixzz16mKVObEI Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
