oafcprozac Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) here is one for prozac or diego... is there anyone who has played for latics with a worse injury record that purdie ? Tony Hateley (I'm sure Diego will put meat on the bones) was crocked from the off and played 1 game on 1 leg according to my owd fella (Previously he had been a superb centre-forward - playing for LIverpool and Notts County) Mike Fillery crocked within ten minutes of his debut at Hull made one more appearance at Notts County at the end of that season before being binned (legend in the pubs around Westwood though!) John Keeley - Spent 2 1/2 years here injured in the pre-season he arrived, played 4 games and was :censored:e. Forever injures, house broken into several times, his kids had accidents and someone run over his cat, his team-mates Nicknamed him 'lucky'. The lesser spotted Dabo Killen must get a mention Ian Ironside, played in one game let in 5 then spent the rest of his time out injured Matthew Rush Swailes - played a few and looked decent but the lad was clearly shot Richard Graham - Always injured And pretty much anyone Penney signed, Purdie, JJ, Holdsworth and Worthy - even loanees Hills, Nardiello and Timar had to go back early crocked and of course Goodwin spent a large chunk of his loan spell crocked...

Takemeanywhere Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Wasn't there a youth team player called Lee Clitheroe, who broke his leg moments after having come on to the pitch on his debut? I think it ended his career... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you can measure it but we've had our crocks. Mike Fillery - injured in his first game after 13mins and never played for us after Tony Hateley - cartilage and only one start Jon "Lucky" Keeley - more injuiries on and off the field than most Edited January 31, 2011 by LaticsPete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forte_Baby Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 To be fair i feel for the lad. He never put a foot wrong got fit and just could not break back into the side. I wish the lad all the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takemeanywhere Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 - even loanees Hills, Nardiello and Timar had to go back early crocked and of course Goodwin spent a large chunk of his loan spell crocked... Hills wasn't actually injured. He got a straight red at Walsall for a shocking challenge and, as he was only on a one month loan, we sent him back.

Lookers_Carl Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Wish the lad all the best. However, he will no doubt have been on good first team wages so another one off the book. Maybe JJ to go later today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 My opinions on him are well documented. You'll not meet more genuine guy, he worked as hard as his body would allow to try and get fit but just couldn't do it. There's also no coincidence between Penny's tenure and the repetitive strain injuries we suffered last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukers1 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 mike fillery That maybe so but his career was halted in an ugly way Were you at Hull City the day Leigh Palin finished Mikes career with a stamp on his knee. It was a horrendous tackle which wasnt just career threatening, it finshed his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcprozac Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Dabo never played a competitive game.. There was a lad here in the late 80s called Ian Thompstone that was here a couple of years, was forever crocked and never played in the first-team Edited January 31, 2011 by oafcprozac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsPete Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Mike Bernard too. A "name" signing. ex Stoke and Everton. Got injured pre-season, then again when finally recovered. Just 6 appearances in two seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep he did, Im sure it was before he made the tackle on Mike ?. The only positive that day was comming from 2.0 down with Redders ramming home a 25 yard screamer in the last min Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also no coincidence between Penny's tenure and the repetitive strain injuries we suffered last season. Ironic that Taylor, Purdie, JJ, Holdsworth and Worthy all had the same type of injury (Worthy's ankle went too I know) - absolutely ridiculous. Hope Hoskins get crocked a Brizzle, that'll be payback for the dour Yorkshire :censored:e! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcprozac Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I have his autograph. Any offers? Bloody Hell, that must like rockin' horse pooh that! Very random, I think my most random autograph is that of Andy Gayle, a young winger who made his debut as sub in a 2-2 with Swindon on the final day of the 88/89 season. He looked good too, pacy and good skill. Uncle Joe disagreed released him and signed Rick Holden and Neil Adams! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of my dad knew Andy Barlow really well and asked him to get a poster signed. Every player signed it. It's either '88-'89 or '89-'90. Edit: Just had a look at it and it's actually '90-'91 (the promotion season). The only signature missing is John Smith, who'd quit football and buggered off back to Uni.

Billy Urmson made Andy Gayle do 8 laps of the pitch cause he backed heeled a ball in training, " How @@@@@@@ can you pass to someone you cant see".... Me and me dad couldnt believe it, it was a great back heal and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
