Arguably 4/5 that are injured would be in our starting 11. I also think we are missing Edwards and Grant more than we realise.

And to answer your previous question, I’m more than happy if we don’t reveal our minor injuries. Long-term stuff is pretty obvious but I don’t need a list of who is and isn’t fit before a match.

Some teams will focus more on us then themselves when they prepare for a game against us. For example, a team could spend time in training where they focus on ways to cope with Crowley and Didzy. Then it gets to the game, neither are playing, we change things up so they have to adapt in game. That might turn out to be an advantage for us, football is all about those marginal gains!

Up to date injury list 

1.Jodi Jones 
2.Dan Crowley 
3.Curtis Edwards 
4.Conor Grant 
5.Matty Platt 
6.George Abbott

Six of our best players out.

Scott Robertson on the subs bench v Walsall.

George Abbott & Matty Platt are in contention to play against Colchester on Saturday after missing the game Crewe, according to Stuart Maynard, speaking at is pre Colchester presser.

Dan Crowley has also been training with the team & is on his way back to match fitness.

Maynard. "Dan Crowley's really close"

Just 3 players not yet available for selection after injury. Robertson wasn't in the squad against Salford. No reason why.

1 Scott Robertson 

2.Jodi Jones 

3.Curtis Edwards 

4.Conor Grant 

 

 

Gordon was absent from the squad on the weekend, Cisse got the nod as one of the back-up wingbacks. And I noticed Cedwyn Scott was missing too surely he'd have been involved as, defensive options aside, the bench for Salford was pretty weak. It would be strange decision to just leave him out if he's not injured.

Jodi Jones. Out till at least January 25.

Curtis Edwards. Out till at least January 25.

Conor Grant. Out till January 25

Cedwyn Scott. Undisclosed

Stuart is going to have a selection headache when these players become available.

Players out with injuries at this time.

Curtis Edwards.

Scott Robertson 

Lucas Ness.

Lewis Macari 

Nick Tsaroulla 

What has happened to Robertson? I know it was chest muscle injury a few months ago but then he came back in December. It's a strange almost non-football injury, I wonder if it has just not healed properly. Be very unlucky if he's picked up a new injury otherwise.

Feels like we're going to have to all chip in and get a private investigator to locate Gordon and Scott at the moment... ????️‍♂️????????

Kyle Cameron forced off 30 minutes into his Barrow debut with a shoulder injury.

Players still unavailable.

Curtis Edwards.

Scott Robertson 

Lucas Ness.

Lewis Macari 

Nick Tsaroulla now available.

Bad news for Notts fans. Two of our best players out for the season.

 

That’s awful news. ????

I was so looking forward to a Palmer-Robertson pairing this season, just not going to happen is it... Got to make sure we keep Abbott until the end of the season now. I think with Hinchy and Edwards back we should be ok in midfield but if we add another I won’t argue. I think another CB is more of a priority, Cundy playing for a number of games would worry me. Shame for Ness but that’s some hamstring tear if it’s keeping him out until May!

 

Positive news about Lewis Macari that he may only be out for 6 to 8 weeks instead of the rest of the season.

It's great that Edwards is in contention for Saturday's match.

4.Jacob Bedeau 

5.Jodi Jones

6.David McGoldrick 

7.Rod McDonald 

Rod went off injured against Colchester.

Macari & Whitaker returned to fitness.

I'm still amazed that considering Jodi has only started 10 matches this season (and played 13 in total) he's still our 3rd top scorer and joint 2nd for assists!

Luckily I don't think Bedeau's injury is too serious and I'm hoping McDonald just felt a bit off tightness and came off so not to make it worse.

its a bit of a concern when we have so many out during a key stage but i hope we can manage. david mcgoldrick is a big miss, i am pleased jodi jones is not serious. we could do with scott robertson, but hes out pretty much for the rest of the season and i think we do miss lewis macari.
