Hello IanS200, sorry to hear of all your problems during 2012. I hope that 2013 will be a much better year for you, I wish you good health and lots of good fortune for the coming year.

Can I put you down for centre forward for Saturday then?

Hi Ian, all the best mate. Had no idea you were suffering ill health. Do you mind if I ask why you had to have operations on your leg and ankle?

I almost lost my right leg, put it through a glass door! :(

6 operations later, 147 stitches in total and 2 years in a wheelchair and 6 months on crutches! Not to mention all the physio to learn to walk again!

I did offer to take the cast off Saturday with the standard IS boot tools....

Lol sorry 6 months in a wheelchair and 2 years on crutches! Not the other way around!

Anyway just shy of 3 years after the accident until I could walk again properly and 4 years after the accident until I played football again! I'd be upfront for Man United now instead of that Dutch bloke if it wasn't for my accident!

[IHgs300]

LOL at Ray....I had a motorcycle accident some years ago, just about lost the leg but they managed to save it, broke it in 8 places and lost muscle and skin, after 6mnths in hospital and 2 yrs off work all was ok, ish

Fast forward to 7 yrs ago and had problems with bones again,so far ive had knee done 4 times and just had ankle fusion surgery.

Keep telling them to take it off but they wont listen.

i hated crutches.. i had to walk a mile in them and was hard work

[IHgs300]

They were ok when i was younger, used to go 1.5 miles to pub and then home again.. slightly wobbly admittedly, but never fell due to extra pair of legs LOL>

[ChrisIS200SportTTE]

Wow sounds nasty Ian!

Hope they get you all sorted :)

[IHgs300]

Cheers Chris, if im not back on line tonight im back in again..... :megaangry:
