INJURY WATCH : 2016-2017

[Delboy]

Stam no comment about Evans who has been very consistent this season!

@Smudgersport
Lots of Qs about George Evans. He's back in training after injury, but not quite up to speed yet. #readingfc

IN before the merge

Again.

FFS Delboy, sort it out.

McShane's injury is now a calf strain.

[3points]

Good to see Evans back on the bench today

[Sutekh]

If you were wondering where Sandro Wieser has been, apparently he's now done his ankle so is likely to miss the rest of the season.

As to the rest, well all are fit except..

Deniss Rakels - still not quite right
Callum Harriott - still struggling for fitness after reaction in training
Joey van den Berg - still not quite ready
Paul McShane - not fit yet but is expected to play some part again this season
Stephen Quinn - has just rejoined training, might actually play again this season

[Hound]

Rakers is a worry isn't he? He was meant to be back in Jan - sure he won't appear again this season now. Big shame for him that after a decent end to last season

Shame. Will be a big miss. Hope it doesn't cost us too much.

[Ian Royal]

Isn't this the third time Quinn's returned to training after his injury?

Yeah, I hope the U23's Will be alright without him. It could damage their Premier cup hopes.

[Sutekh]

Berg and McShane will definitely miss the Wigan game

Callum Harriott has had an operation on his hamstring and will miss the rest of the season.

[alfie9]

Damn. Any chance we get McShane or Berg back before playoffs?

[Sutekh]

Latest from today's press conference

McShane and Berg could feature on Sunday but no decision has been made yet.

Garath McCleary is likely to be out following his persistent groin problem, but could feature in the play-offs.

Stephen Quinn is back in training (again, is that in double figures yet?)

[Sutekh]

Rakels and McCleary are, apparently, back in training this week.

Stam has also hinted that there will be a small amount of squad rotation in the two play off games with Fulham so they'll give another couple of options though tbh I can't see Rakels playing any further part this season and McCleary will probably only be on the bench - or chanced for an hour in the second leg depending on the level desperation.

As ever Quinn will not be involved v Fulham though he is still training and is involved in the overall "squad" gatherings etc.

Full health reported for the others, aside from Harriott who is definitely out until next season.

Cooper (Millwall)
Hurtado (Vitoria)
Jules (Motherwell)
Keown (Partick)
Moore (Luton)
Stacy (Exeter)

Are the only other squad members missing due to their loan clubs involvement in play offs or final league season stages.

Anybody know what the situation is with Jordan ?

[The Informant]

She presents on Loose Women I believe. She goes by the name Katie Price these days.

[Sutekh]

Anybody know what the situation is with Jordan ?

Still a doubt. Possibly may know more at the press conference tomorrow (Thursday). Depends how much JS is willing to reveal.
