He wasn't match fit in January, It's when you can start a first team game.

For the record i walked in and out of the Grand Canyon 9 months after my ACL. 4000 ft descent then ascent, took 11 hours and was 90C at the bottom. So i think 7 months for Hughes. That make sense in my head.

I hope it was 90F, not 90C.

With dawks at cm we would get bullied week in and week out I'm afraid! Guediora is the one for me! Quality cm who contributed massively to watford going up! 

Has anyone ever seen Dawkins get bullied? His ability to hold possession even when outnumbered, is the best we have.

Of course you ain't match fit straight away but it's not about the knee...you only need time on the pitch to get it, like new preseason. But 7 months could be about right, he is young though and shorter period could be enough as well.

I came just from Lofeten, have to say that descenting it much worse to the knees than ascenting!

Anyone else think it's a little strange that nothing's been announced about either Hughes or Bryson? Normally with injuries, the extent of them is revealed the next day. The club are mysteriously quiet.

I was thinking the same. 

I'm not sure whether this is a good or bad thing.

Clearly they're of the opinion that it'll be fine to update everyone during the Pompey press conference, if they announce it between now and the press conference then I agree the timing is very odd. But maybe the first specialist wasn't 100% sure so they went to get a second opinion.

Do we even know what Bryson's injury is yet?

Some random twitterer said he'd seen Bryson somewhere walking about. That is the closest thing to an update I've seen. So the answer to your question is no.

How would we? By the time it's in to Dawkins feet he has shipped it back out with some intricate passing, they wouldn't get close to him.  I think he could do a fine job there.

It doesn't sound good with this delay for news. Maybe they're wanting to tie-up a replacement and announce at the same time? Not sure why that would be necessary as although losing Hughes for the season would be a real blow, it's not like we'd expect a wave of suicides.
