What we don't appreciate is why does he need to sit in a public waiting room waiting on treatment, he's a professional footballer playing for one of the biggest clubs in the UK Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackrfc95 4,255 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Lee Hodson now the only outfielder we signed in the summer that hasn't picked up an injury. Not had the best luck with injuries so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought as he was coming down from challenging the smaller bheast CH, in the immediate run up to his injury, that the bheast had a bit if a punch at JG ribs. No one around me saw it. Did I imagine it? ? I thought the same thing mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said most of the consultants in private hospitals are NHS employees. There is no A&E at private hospitals and obviously Rangers deemed the injury to require immediate medical attention so he's went to QEUH. Any follow up will be done in Ross Hall. I'm sure he would have been seen relatively quickly because judging by the photo it looks pretty empty! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cushynumber 25,178 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 1 hour ago, graeme_4 said: You realise that there's probably not any private hospitals in Glasgow that would do an 'A&E' type of service, particularly on Hogmanay? And if they did, it's unlikely to include a specialist for injuries of this nature? Still - anything to have a dig at the club You better tell that to BMI healthcare and Ross hall hospital in Glasgow then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relax mate, it's nothing out the ordinary. For a start if he's broken a collarbone or dislocated a shoulder the only way that jersey is coming off is by cutting it off and the unless you're in London there's no private A&E facilities. Someone mentioned above, it's no surprise to me that when Garner went off the game changed, we had to try to play it out with no option for a long ball.

I've seen folk deal with dislocated shoulders on the pitch before, pop it back in, hurts like a bitch but after that it's all good. So that's why i'm thinking somethings broke.

When Waghorn came on things seemed a little off after that. I said the exact same thing during the game. We went to shit after the goal and it was because the players were hesistant to play a long forward ball to Waghorn. Plus Garner will fight for every ball and press defenders right away, Waghorn doesn't do any of that. You could see straight away Garner was a worry for their defenders Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see straight away Garner was a worry for their defenders Yeah throwing long balls towards their centre was giving them problems. We were on the front foot. Lego eater was struggling and having no impact on the game (and losing the plot). Mince Waghorn came on our style resorted to type (slow and error strewn) their centre halves dealt easily with Waghorn and we ended up allowing them to dominate. Second half in particular was disgusting to endure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 74,167 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Thought him and Miller were doing well together. Then Waghorn came on. The movement of a traffic cone and a touch like a trampoline. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
