Speculative reports claiming a season-ending injury to Pilli first choice 'keeper William Clayden have been confirmed (I honestly didn't think he'd be out for that long so I went ahead and did the whole sensationalised story thing :S). The club have released a statement on the incident. 'Clayden has suffered a dislocated knee cap during monday nights training session. It is possible Clayden ill out for a possible 2 to 3 months.'
The player himself spoke exclusivley to the blog earlier today - 'unfortunately my run of bad luck has continued, but im staying optomistic about the injury and hope to be prove the medical staff wrong with an earlier return.'
When asked about how he thinks LPFC will fair without him in goals, Clayden remained positive - '[my absence] means we are losing depth in the midfield as it apears Burg will have to fill in for me, but I still think we can challenge for a finals berth.'
Some may view the news as a devastating blow for the squad, though others may revel in finally being able to possibly hold a clean sheet - though everyones mainly heaps devoed. LPFC U21's have had a turbulent last 4 weeks with the walking out of Daniel Fletcher (woof) back to his former club, reports of an unsettled Poulos and now this. Additionally, both Treacy and Phipps have been ruled out of tomorrows match leaving no reserves and me having to play a full game after almost dying of illness. F*%king hell.
