he doesn't look any slower

its just that his decision making ability (always a bit erratic) has been particularly dodgy for most of this season. His problems look more mental than physical to me.

Worthington is a disgrace playing a player with 2 cracked ribs, Idiot. (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 3, 14:26:41
- We have a WEALTH of midfield players (pre Etuhu & Robo) (NCFC) - oh arr, Jan 3, 15:47:20

  - Yeah which was pretty nasty really (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:41:10
- To be fair, Worthington will ask the physio (NCFC) - Tweedy, Jan 3, 14:32:22
  - But most decent managers would surely realise... (NCFC) - Klobo04, Jan 3, 14:36:17
    - i'll say it again (NCFC) - Tweedy, Jan 3, 14:38:33

        he wasn't as bad as etuhu (n/m) (NCFC) - Tweedy, Jan 3, 14:44:56
      - Sack the Physio then. With our injury record I have often wondered about our personal (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 3, 14:41:18
        
        yeah you're right, they must all be shit (NCFC) - Tweedy, Jan 3, 14:42:45
        
        I expect injuries but how many have come on the training pitch compared to injuries in (NCFC) - lovely old job, Jan 3, 14:46:22
        
        they are crap (NCFC) - Ian Henderson, Jan 3, 14:46:09
      - In that case - Sack the physio... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:40:01
        
        Funny you should say that... (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:41:48
        
        Wouldn't be the first time in recent years the physio has been doubted, ability-wise. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jan 3, 14:41:43
    - agreed...brave effort from Robinson but much like the man he's replaced... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:37:12
  - As a coach... (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:34:03
    - "one of those injuries which won't get any worse if you play with them" (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jan 3, 14:37:59
      - Doubt it was because of cracked ribs. Must be something else going on there... (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:40:40
        
        That's exactly what happened to Holty last season isn't it...? (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:43:53
        
        No he had thoraheamoblahblah. Basically blood between lung and ribs. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:47:50
        
        Yep - haemothorax not pneumothorax. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jan 3, 14:53:07
        
        Tension pnuemothorax wasn't it? (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jan 3, 14:46:52
        
        I always thought it was a cracked rib he played through... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:49:43
        
        No not a collapsed lung. Much more dangerous actually. (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:49:25
  - it was informed by the knowledge that (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jan 3, 14:33:31
    - true his reluctance is frustrating (NCFC) - Tweedy, Jan 3, 14:35:07
      - Personally I reckon the physio will have said... (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:38:13
        
        But Robinson isn't a man thinking straight IMO...them sort of decisions are best... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:41:16
- Yeah but you can't do anything with cracked ribs. They just (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:29:56
  - Yeh same on my expierence of bruised ribs... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jan 3, 14:35:31

  - Saf's groin. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jan 3, 14:29:08
  - and does anyone think (NCFC) - camcan, Jan 3, 14:28:45
    - Ashton - No, Hucks - probably (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 3, 14:29:34
      - Hucks said he hadn't been 100% fit in years! (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 3, 14:31:27
        
        so basically he's as fit now as he'll ever be (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Jan 3, 14:33:04
        
        Well, that isn't necessarily true, is it? (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jan 3, 14:38:01
