At this point in time, expecting a clean bill of health for the start of the season for all other players

Tyler Blackett will miss the opening game of the season as he serves the final match of his 3 game ban for his Sheffield Wednesday dismissal

Will Obita be ready?

Doubt it. I am pretty sure Obita had another operation during the summer.

Hoping then

Other than GMac, Obita was the only one that was still uncertain but did hear on BBC Berks in the last couple of weeks of the season that he was looking to be ready for pre-sason training. And I think Hound said somewhere that he met Jordan in hospitality at a game and he said pretty much the same thing.

So not heard anything about Obita and a further op. so if anyone knows more please let us know.

[Hound]

Yeah he did, but he had a minor clean up surgery since. Not heard anything after that though

[Snowflake Royal]

Bets on which porker will come back from holidays and pull something in the first two weeks of training to miss the start of the season?

[Hound]

Swift and his dodgy hammy surely odds on favourite

Assuming he’s still with us, I might be tempted to have a shilling on Bod...and he won’t even have been on holiday...

Edwards has a cracked rib

Popa and Harriott have both picked up minor muscle injuries which need attention and will keep them out of the squad for Austria.

That’s him out for the season then.

McShane. Slight concussion should be ok for Derby

Popa and Harriott still injured. Popa leading the way of the two of them

Edwards has done his ankle in training and likely to be out for 4 weeks

Obita not expected back until October.

Blackett suspended for Derby.

[Hound]

Bacuna I'm assuming should be fit enough to be involved on Friday. O'Shea has some injury as well

Yes both are expected to be ok.

Garath McCleary to miss start of season

Garath McCleary misses the start of every season, he's finished, should think himself lucky he's not a Racehorse or a Gray hound

[72 bus]

McShane. Slight concussion should be ok for Derby

From what I have seen he would probably play better with a bit of concussion.

[Singing Defective]

Yeah he did, but he had a minor clean up surgery since. Not heard anything after that though

He was interviewed in hospitality. Apparently several weeks yet to go.

Gunter - he has a thigh injury which is very unusual for him because over his career he has been robust and always available for training and matches.

"He got the injury in lifting his leg and trying to block a cross. He'll be out three to six weeks.

Now we know why gunter never tries to block crosses.

First and last time he'll ever attempt to block one.

Fcuk me you couldn’t make it up.

Has no one told him you have to work your way up to complicated movements? You can’t just go trying to do crazy stuff like block a cross out of the blue having never done it before.

[Sutekh]

Chris Gunter will miss the first 3-6 weeks of the season due to a thigh injury.
