Watmore - injured? Nursing a knock..

[California-Hibs]

According to Hibs Facebook he won't be in attendance in the club store this afternoon for the signing session due to 'requiring further treatment for a knock'.

Is he a doubt for tomorrow? Please tell me no, he's one of the very few things I'm looking forward to watching tomorrow!!

Nightmare if true.

"Unfortunately fellow new loan signing Duncan Watmore was forced to miss the Clubstore appearance because he requires further treatment on a knock in order to be fit for Saturday."

No wonder, he was booted up and down last Saturday !

Why would Hibs release this type of information , could they not have made up a other excuse for his non appearance today, if the Ross County players get wind of this and the lad starts the game he will come in for some hefty tackles early in the game tomorrow.

Does seem a little odd.

Yup, they should have said he was up in court instead ;)

Surely you aren't saying a team put out by Adams would be capable of such things...

Give the lad a chance FS, still plenty time for that, :greengrin

Was thinking a long the lines of he was washing his hair this afternoon. :greengrin

Could be faking it, have you seen the hibs physio :wink::greengrin

[leggeto]

No surprise as he was kicked everytime he ran with the ball against they halfwitt fifers

Yes, she was my physio in musselburgh for a year! Loved going to those sessions!!

[S4uzee]

Does anyone know if these player appearances at the clubstore are popular? Can't imagine many people going today

Not seen her. If she's as fit or even more so than the Chelsea one then no surprise. :D

My boy goes to them all and he's building up a nice collection of pics from the visits. I took him and his mates round today and there was a healthy crowd there waiting for Boateng.

Good to hear

[hfc rd]

Hope he's back fully match fit for next week.

Spoke to him after game, he got done 4 or 5 times early on he said and one of the challenges caused injury, he said adrenaline kept him going but after the game it stiffened up,
Nice guy and hope he is back next week

[banchoryhibs]

Also had a brief chat with him after the game and he expects to be back next week. He said that Butcher wants to see him get more of the ball than he did during the Raith game; he did not find the pace of the game here to fast and enjoyed his debut. He seems a genuinely level headed kid.

[Aldo]

Sunderland coach/scout watched him v Raith and was surprised he didn't get the ball more. They rate him highly but need him to play first team football rather that u21 or 23's.

If he does well there is a possibility that he may come back next season for a season long loan however nothing will be decided until preseason.

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

Really hope we can keep him on for next season. Doubtful however. Exactly the type of player we've been crying out for for years now

I said this at the game and also many times since. Both Raith's left sided players had been booked early doors and we should have been feeding watmore the ball constantly, as they could not have dealt with him. It would have led to far more opportunities for us and/or, raith being reduced to 10 men. I felt it was a poor decision not to attack more down that wing at the time and I still think this

Was not there so can't comment However if this is true and have seen it mentioned several times ,then why couldn't Butcher communicate this to his players .if he did they clearly couldn't execute his instructions and it cost us dear.

Have just watched the highlights. As I predicted, the camera angle was gash. However, I think that I stand corrected as despite having a crap camera angle, it doesn't appear to cross the line.

It's simply because almost every time Williams played a short ball in the second half, it was simply hoofed up the park. We didn't play it down either flank enough as our game fell to pieces.

Turning to next season, the cynic in me says that if he does well up here, a loan to an English Championship club would be favourable for both Watmore and Sunderland

Likewise, totally obvious that we should have just been getting it to Watmore - it should have been 3 bookings, but one was in the first few minutes and ended up a warning for the Raith player. Don't think it was a decision, more just general poor play, but even then we should have got it to Watmore's feet a lot more.

[Hermit Crab]

I like the look of him and hope he plays next week on a seperate note WBA scout was in the stand yesterday watching Stanton.

Yep, but he wont leaving anytime soon, that for sure:aok:

P.s - Hands off, away look at Gauld or Johnstone!

No mention of Watmore in a update regarding our injuries, don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

He's no longer being treated if that helps.
