Hopefully we can tie that in with his recovery. Exactamondo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having listened to it now I thought it was ok, honest, more upbeat & enthusiastic & comfortable in his interviews. He can’t come out & say that the Twine stuff is shambolic & he’s clearly toeing the party line by saying we aren’t putting all our eggs in one basket when obviously we are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cidre Monita Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Is Yu likely to play in the Asia Cup next Jan/Feb? I know he is representing Japan in the Olympics at U23 level, but just wondering if we will lose him to the aforementioned competition. More to the point are Manning/Tinnion aware of the possibility- was this factored in when signing him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahki suffered a very similar injury at Leeds last season if I remember correctly. I think his was about 8 weeks before his return so factor in the time Yu has already been convalescing and I reckon it’ll be a similar ballpark. It seems Ian Gay received the same news over tea and biscuits with Tins in his office today 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand why he stayed to support his team mates in Japan, it's not like he wasn't getting quality treatment and he was part of a national group. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand why he stayed to support his team mates in Japan, it's not like he wasn't getting quality treatment and he was part of a national group. It’s a shame but absolutely nothing anyone connected with the club (or the indeed the Japanese set up) could have done about it. He can certainly use the time to improve his English, settle in to a new City (& Country) & as he’s been playing since February, treat it as his post season break. Was really looking forward to seeing him play, it will just be a little later than hoped. Edited August 7 by GrahamC 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted August 7 Admin Share Posted August 7 At least I know the message I got a few weeks ago was correct As to why it took so long to go public, that is unclear Maybe the club had to wait for Tins to update Ian Gay first? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 If I'm an optimist I'll say 4-5 weeks from the date of the injury itself. Pessimist in me says 4-5 weeks but is that technically fit, robust and match fit etc? Different definitions of fit really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cidre Monita Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 17 hours ago, Mr Popodopolous said: To be fair by our historic average midtable Championship with some young players, decent scalps and football and yeah Cup runs isn't that bad. My hope is that if Sinclair did bang them in, well we keep and build around given all the hard work to get out of FFP etc. My key question is are we as a club and wider Organisation, continually striving to be the best that we can in all areas? I really can't see evidence that we are. 1 hour ago, Steve Watts said: They deserve a lot of the flak that has come their way over the last year, but quite frankly this is a ridiculous question to ask. Sorry don’t understand why that is a ridiculous question. By the sounds of it he is a rising star in Japan and could make the squad.
