Burns injury

[Snowflake Royal]

Looked nasty and like he'd be out for some time. Which with O'Connor out is a worry, especially with the defence struggling.

But... could this be a blessing in disguise given our defensive woes. Can't say I've seen it, but Dorsett is supposed to be one of the quickest sprinters at the club. He played CB in a couple of the cup games alongside Stickland.

Could Dorsett solve a problem? He's big and strong, and with some pace, maybe he can be the piece that solves that ball over the top/in behind we've struggled with. And with Williams alongside him he'd had a quality partner who reads the game well.

Obviously no one ever wishes and injury on a player, but sometimes someone steps up and shows you something you've been missing.

I don’t see anything changing if Stickland plays instead of Burns, he's also struggled this season. But maybe Dorsett can be the key we need to cut out some errors and turn the GD in our favour.

Can he work in the ticket office as well?

I think the official were suggesting O Connor might be back for Orient? Didn’t listen to the interview tbf

But year Dorsett would be worth a go if not. Not Stickland

I can’t see O’Connor being up to match speed even if he is fit.

[Snowflake Royal]

Risky rushing O'Connor back, and he doesn’t have a lot of pace. But the experience and quality of him and Williams should give us a strong defence.

O'Connor being fit is the ideal.

Some how missed this - what happened with Burns?

Also there was a one off comment on Twitter about Camara hobbling down the tunnel at the end of the game. Anyone know anything about this?

Burns looked to have done something nasty to his knee falling in the box. They stretched it out and he carried on without the phsyio, but in the last few minutes he could barely stand, let alone run.

Camara had some sort of knock to a leg that left him limping. That seemed a bit more like an impact injury than something more serious to me, but he had just had a quick turnaround from flying Internationally.

Either could be quite bad and months out, or be more impact/cramp and turnout fine, but I'd place a small wager on Burns being out for at least 3 weeks, maybe months.

Looked like cramp to me to be honest but might be wrong
