i went to see a consultant yesterday about my knee because its been dodgy for nearly two years now since i injured it kicking about with some mates. He said ive got a ruptured collateral ligament and ruptured cruciate ligament so no footy for me for a while Cry

.

What really annoys me is when i first injured it, they said there was nothing wrong with it and it was twice its normal size, because if they had spotted it i probably wouldn't have had an injury plagued season this season. Cry

Where do you want me to start.

Through football & cricket over the years I have broken:-
My arms - three times
My fingers - twice
My leg - once
Untold black eyes as my face has met a boot after I've headed a ball away or the ball has caught me in the face at cricket.

My wife everytime witters on but I still get it sorted and get straight back at it.

The two worst I have had are:

Sprained one ankle badly, falling off a kerb,

then pretty much two years to the day.

Damaged ligaments in the other ankle after falling off a kerb.

While at school and college, playing 5 - a -side I developed a knack of saving penalties with my face

Broken a bone in my left hand once

Broken a bone in my right hand twice - Only two weeks between each break, Army medic in Kosovo didnt pick up the first one after I punched a door huh

, played Rugby with what was only thought to be a badly bruised hand and snapped it again, had an x-ray and the Yank doctor told me he couldn't straighten the bone as its healed wrong.....due to it not being straightened the first time.......wanker. Now if I ever feel the need to punch anything/anyone, i'm extremely cautious of breaking my hand again.

Mt IT band bothers me when I run sometimes, and has done for years. I live with it now.

I got a serious knock to the head while playing Rugby. It happened about 20mins into the game, apparently I came off the pitch 10 mins later, 20 mins into the second half I asked one guy next to me if it was still the first half....... laugh

he took me to the A&E laugh

I lost about 45mins of my life...the scariest thing was, I played on for 10mins not knowing anything about it. Shock

Suffering from shin splints as we speak Cry

I suffer from week achillies which is strange.......any exercise i do i will sit down or stop and it will be so painful i cant walk for a bit.

Last two seasons have been bad in goal for me.......First match back i broke my thumb.....come back then brake it again! i continued to play and have probably done lasting damage embarrased

as mundane tasks like typing, making a sandwich are hard or impossible.
Also playing in goal ive lost count the amount of back injuries ive had laugh

I got run over by a work saver (like a wee mini forklift kind of thing)back in the day, breaking 5 bones in each of my feet .

And even further back in the day, when I was still in school in fact, I had a javelin go through my leg. I threw mine, wasn't happy with the distance, and ran to retrieve it, ad as a joke my mate though he's throw his, and just miss me. Well he was a better shot than he thought, because the thing went straight through my calf. The Doctors said, if I was a fraction of a second slower, the thing could have gone through my back Shock

It's great to be back among friends.

Not strictly an injury, but when doing heavy lifting repeatedly, or when my fingers get too cold- they lock up for minutes at a time, and I cant do anything till they relax
