Joseph - Issue

Well I've searched all over for any comments from Critch about Joseph and can't find them anywhere!

Kyle Joseph was a noticeable absentee from the matchday squad, with Critchley confirming the forward will be assessed over the coming days.

"Kyle unfortunately picked up an issue in training at the end of the week," he said.

"We'll have to keep our fingers crossed and assess him over the next 24-48 hours."

It was part of his post match interview on Saturday. It was exactly as reported in this thread. He picked up an issue in training at the end of last week, it is being assessed over the next 24/48 hours.

Now for my assumption, when you have to wait that period of time it is normally due to letting any swelling reduce before a scan. I've no doubt the club will know more today/tomorrow, so may get an update ahead of the PV game.
 
But if they said it was a hip issue. then we would speculate on how bad a hip issue,
Now you've simply added to the confusion we're all starting to feel! When you say 'hip', do you mean in the anatomical, bodily sense, or as a slang-type reference to something adjudged trendy or 'down with the kids'?
 
Would be nice to know the injury and rough time scale of his absence. Don’t think that’s entitled at all to be honest

Well that hardly sounds like his leg has fallen off and he'll be sat in the Kev Stewart Memorial seat for the foreseeable future!
There are some drama Queens on here.
 
If he’s out for a while we should be looking to bring a young premier league striker in on loan until January, as well as another experience target man type
 
Rumour whispers from the West today suggesting the bruising on Joseph’s hip has progressed to a fracture (hairline) & unlikely to see him this year !?!? Operation required to stabilise the fracture.
 
no he mentioned Joseph also said about talking to Brighton about what stage weir was at before including him
34 minute
Sadly the commentator has misquoted here.

Critch did mention Pennington and Weir, but regards Joseph the last thing he said was that they would assess him on Monday once swelling has gone down.
I heard the interview personally, unless he did another one?

mustve done another one
 
Critch said in today's presser that Joseph has had a scan. He didn't expand on it.
Just our luck if he's pregnant. 😄
Aye, not giving a timeline isn't so much an issue but like all fans, we immediately assume no news, means it's something serious. Hopefully the scan is clear and we can get to see the lad in action soon.

In the Gazette it says he’s going to be out for a while. That could be anywhere between 6 weeks and 6months.
 
I was always taught not to start sentences with And.
A rather sad indictment of the British education system back in the day. And although there are certain shortcomings which still persist to this day, marked improvements have been made. And you 'can' start a sentence employing the word 'And' (beginning with an upper-case 'A'). Where its application is not allowed is in the commencement of a new paragraph ...
 
Anyone else find it weird how we would gamble on a player with a current injury but not on one with an injury from way back in his career?
Really think one of the reporters should ask the question about our medicals.

Agree.
Good job we kept clear of that Bishop bloke he only scored 20 goals last season and 2 already this. 😫

Yes he had an injury when we signed him but he played against Derby . What happened after that to make him unavailable we don't really know but it
may well not be related to the knock he picked up at Swansea.
 
If the club actually communicated these things properly there wouldn’t be all this speculation. And before someone says it’s none of our business well I disagree as we’re fan’s who have a great interest in what’s going on at the club we support.
 
there's one well respected poster on here who got dogs abuse when he first posted suggesting it was to do with a fractured/broken hip injury. The longer we hear nothing from the club as to the type of injury it is the more it seems he may well have been right. After all, we pretty much are told about every other players type of injury aren't we?

If it was a broken hip, how did he play vs derby?

Critch said he picked up an issue in training.
 
It’s obviously shit and unfortunate that he is injured but can we calm down a bit.

He played 37 league games for Oxford last season which is more than some of the crocks we have signed recently have managed combined in the last two seasons (Trybull, Bridcutt, Stewart - I’m looking at you!) so let’s just wait and see what happens and stop getting so worked up.

No way would he have been able to play with a broken hip
 
In the rematch preview it stated that Joseph is continuing to be assessed. If there was a fracture, ongoing assessment wouldn't be
needed would it? Hopefully less serious with the continuous assessment being linked to availability in the near future.
