Smile 26,622 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 No good reading.http://maineblue.co.uk/?p=8288Weiss returns to Eastlands after Rangers staff fail to spot broken foot10 April 2011 No CommentVladimir Weiss is to return to Eastlands after his loan spell at Rangers came to an abrupt end when their medical team failed to spot his broken foot.The 21-year-old was allowed to play in several matches, including the Co-Operative Insurance Cup final, after hurting his foot in a game against St Johnstone. Initially the Glasgow club thought the Slovak international had bruised his foot when in fact it was already broken. Weiss told the Scottish News of the World, “I’m devastated to miss the title run-in but if I had found out earlier my foot was broken then I would have missed the cup final. Manchester City are not happy about the situation and I am upset that I have been playing with a broken foot but I don’t blame anyone. Rangers apologised to me but the bruising was obviously so bad that the first scan couldn’t spot the break. I have enjoyed my time at Rangers. It’s been a good season and if City decides on another loan season for me then I would love to come back here.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest therabbitt Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 His bruising was too bad to spot the fracture/break when he was first scanned by the club. Was latterly picked up when he was away with his country. There's nothing scandalous here at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeBlue 136 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Here was me thinking an Xray can surely tell as it just see's the bones.Not always, assuming this is a metatarsal injury, it can be difficult to see the fracture on initial X-Ray. Once the bone healing process starts it is often easier to see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryMc 2,398 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 How the hell could "bruising" prevent a broken bone from being noticed on an x-ray? Unless it was a fracture and even then we should be have more than capable doctors to notice this.Unless there was a great amount of swelling and if that was the case he shouldn't have been training let alone playing.Big loss, if he is indeed away.

Actually both are sometimes impossible to see on X-ray, especially in a complicated structure like the foot without a bone scan or CT. The bruising or swelling wouldn't have obscured the x-ray.

RobertN 393 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 fuckin grim sounds like we have seen the last of him yet another of our players kicked out of the season and maybe the teamthis is becoming the norm now with our imports Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermopylae 15,287 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 TBH the poor state of the medical staff is just another indication of how ruddeless the club is just now ...

JRodgA2k8 542 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Tbh I have always questioned our medical staff throughout the years, we really seem to pick up so many injuries every season and also on a few occasions like this an injury creeps up we don't notice. Don't know if it's always been the same team throughout the years but would be interesting to see if this will be looked at in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
