Looks like the lad broke his jaw early in the game last night andplayed through the pain, just posted a picture of the x-ray to his Twitter. Gutted for him.

Terrible.

Not a nice injury to have. I had my jaw broken many years ago and was wired up for 6 weeks. No solid food then when the 6 weeks were up it hadn't set properly and the Doctors had to break it again to reset it.

Best of luck lad.

Really bad news for the lad, he's been showing what he's capable of in these friendlies but hopefully he can make a full and speedy recovery.

Maden played with a broken nose against Fax now Pownall plays with a broken jaw these lads realy do put their bodies on the line & can & do wear our shirt with pride

I wish the lad a speedy recovery

He`s looked good in the games I`ve seen and hopefully he`ll be back in quick time.
Rapid recovery to you.

As I told the kids I' ve coached , you are playing the toughest team sport in the world

Nah that`s wendyball surely............and don`t call me shirley.

Perhaps frankb can pop round and tell him what the best liquid diet is for the next 6 weeks

Yes Shirley, nearly as tough as being a ' screw '

Rotten news if true, ' Nicho ' has been in great form pre season as have most of the kids ,but Anthony ( his sunday name

) has the personality to see himself through anything, as ' Arnie ' said

I'll be back, and he will

What you on about?

Well surprisingly it was Complan' usually strawberry but it got very boring so I used to make shandies out of it with Special Brew.

I missed Bacon butties the most.
