Under 15's Koc Final


Recommended Posts

Sam said thanks to everybody for the concern and to Brendan for the offer of the frame but he thinks Nu-Trak will sort him out.

He was eventually transferred to Southampton, arriving about midnight last night and is waiting to go down for the operation now. Apparently both tibia and fibula are broken and it is all pretty unstable so will be held together with a mixture of plates, wires and screws. Sam is in good spirits and says he will be riding again before Christmas.

Good news that Sam's back nearer home Vince and fingers crossed all goes well with the op tonight. Now YOUR biggest problem is to try and get him to listen to the docs in terms of what he has to do to regain full fitness AND to try to stop him from jumping back on a bike too early on his road to recovery - good luck mate! :wink:

Sam's finally had the op and is now home. They put two screws in the tibia which are fine but they think the screw they put in the fibula might need re-doing but we won't know until Monday. Sam is in good spirits though and still says he will be riding by Christmas.

Don't come back too soon Sam, many have and regretted it later in life, let everything heal first, your young time is on your side, not so sure about the old man though :shock:

Seems he won't need another operation. He now has six weeks in plaster and another two in a more flexible support. The Doc reckons 4 to 5 months to be OK but Sam said that actually means two and a half to three months. I won't let him do anything too silly though. Once he is out of the cast I will take him up to Brian Simpson and follow his recomendations. Pictures of his war wounds and x-ray

Thanks Mark and Sam, seems minor compared to your injury from last year.

I'm sure I can find enough tape even for a gob that size Stressed!

Jamie - you should kick him when you next see him, he's been no help to you whatever in this Academy League :)
