He’s been unlucky with injuries the past two games
I hadn't even realised he'd sustained any injuries! Do you have any details? No - don't tell me; let me guess ...
After yet another dismal, recent away defeat, on leaving the ground at which we'd suffered the loss, the hapless manager Neil Critchey was spotted by a particulary irate Seasiders' fan, who, not unreasonably, took it upon himself to remonstrate with 'La Critch' about what had taken place during the game
In order to confront him, the supporter in question ran over to the pavement along which Critch was trying to make good his escape, but, unfortunatly, as he - the fan - drew near to his intended target, he tripped on the curb, lost his balance, and fell, in rather a crumpled heap, straight into the rather beleagured Blackpool manager. Regrettably, in trying to break his fall, he instinctively raised his knee, in an attempt to steady himself, but his momentum was such that the forward motion of his descent sent him careering uncontrollably into Mr Critchley, and he accidentally kneed the poor man in the testicles as his downward descent continued.
Fortunately, a nurse, who just happened to be passing as all this unfolded, was able administer to the needs of all concerned, and the unfortunate episode was quickly drawn to a swift and satisfactory conclusion, with all parties concerned successfully able to make their way home; albeit with the Blackpool manager having to complete the short walk back in slightly comical, knock-kneed fashion.
