redkeith Posted 30 December, 2023 Share Posted 30 December, 2023 3 hours ago, The Cat said: I caught Salmonella in Mexico. I was off, office, work for weeks and I even missed a home game, the 6 3 against Man United ! Before that I had a cast iron constitution, but after that I got every stomach bug going. The friendly bacteria all get killed off by the bug. I think Downes will be eating a lot of yogurt from now on to recover . 3 hours ago, The Cat said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but apparently one of his abscenes was because he had the flu which was a bug that a few of the others in the squad had too so it's only been a couple of times he's been off due to this.

When he's back, won't it be almost 2 years since he's played proper football? (I'm not counting a 10 min sub app). Not many players, if any, ever return the same after that long out. It's not like he was a word beater before his injury either. We've clearly lost the gamble on this one and failed with another striker signing!

Not making any sort of career comparison, BUT ...Danny Ings was out of the game for a very long period before he got back to form with Liverpool..and then... Even if Ross does get himself back fit and we get a couple of good seasons out of him.. we can only hope.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gio1saints Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 What he could continue to do with is plenty of positive encouragement and support from Saints fans on his journey back to fitness. I think for the most part that’s what he’s getting from most fans plus first class rehab with Saints medical team. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Sounds like Downes is nowhere near as bad as first feared, will certainly miss tomorrow but should be back thereafter.

goodymatt Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 James Bree has been back training for over a week and will play for the u21s against Arsenal on Friday. Martin says he will then return to the squad if he gets through that with no issues. Good to have him back, especially as Manning is a couple of bookings away from a 2 game suspension and we could do with his superior defensive qualities for some games. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That achilles injury was his first serious injury problem of his career, and he looked great playing for Sunderland. If you'd been off the pitch for a year and went out and started playing hard again I'm sure there's a chance you might pull a muscle. It's unfortunate but these things do happen. He's way, way less injury prone than Ings, and look what Danny managed for us - and we've still haven't managed to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you say he is less injury prone - he hasn’t played any meaningful football for god knows how long and prior to the achilles he was injured : Scotland international Stewart was out for three months earlier in the season with a hamstring problem and after only six matches back in the side wound up having season-ending Achilles surgery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's a bit more than that, 10 in 13 in the Championship and 9 in 40 in the SPL (for an unfashionable club) shows he can hack it at a slightly higher level than League One, he really only played one season in that League.
