That aside, hope he makes a swift recovery, and a return to the pitch in time. I'd say it speaks volumes of our medical progress that people can be annoyed at an 'Emergency Operation' on a Skull fracture being described as life-threatening.

Thankfully it isnt... So I'm thinking 'A Hull of a headache'. Or 'On my head Ma-son' Sorry! Shockingly bad taste, Fleet Street awaits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgford Ram Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 It was interesting to compare the approach of MOTD2 who didn't show a replay of the incident, either during or after the highlights and then decided not to belittle the injury by talking about minute incidents in the game against the click bait approach of the tabloids who claimed he was fighting for his life and included lots of pictures of his bikini clad fiancé.
