MikeyT Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 http://www.lcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Lates...1300363,00.html Leicester City boss Ian Holloway today confirmed that defender Patrick Kisnorbo would be out of action 'for the next four to six months'. The stand-in Foxes captain was stretchered from the field of play during the first half of the Championship clash against Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend. And a scan on Sunday revealed that the Australian international had suffered a partial anterior crutiate tear that will require surgery over the summer. Holloway said: "It looked innocuous at the time - but those cruciate injuries always do. "The good thing is he has got the right people around him at the club. Our medical team here have dealt with similar injuries in recent years and they are confident that he will come through it. "We have now got to decide if he will have his surgery over here or in Australia. "His injury, quite simply, gives someone else an opportunity for our final game of the season against Stoke. "Levi Porter did his cruciate against Chelsea earlier in the season and he his back in training now. Years ago his career could well have been over. It's incredible what they can do these days."

NOOOOOOOO! Play Stearman at centre back next week don't play N Gotty or we are guranteed to lose. And we will be fooked for the start of next season. What about Worley?
Mark Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Did he have something similar when we first signed him? I remember waiting for months for him to make his debut.
Dr The Singh Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Oh well, it looks like he will still be with us after the summer!!!!
Barry Trotter Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 NOOOOOOOO! Play Stearman at centre back next week don't play N Gotty or we are guranteed to lose. And we will be fooked for the start of next season. What about Worley? I don't think playing Stearman at Centre back is the way to go. The man likes to go forward. Worley is inexperienced and at such a crucial game I wouldn't risk playing him.
Maybes Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Dammit. Not good at all. Hopefully will only be 4months though.
Ric Flair Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Did he have something similar when we first signed him? I remember waiting for months for him to make his debut. He's had knee trouble before and you are right, he had surgery about 6 months before he signed for us and was out for about 8 months. He won't be sold now, but what bothers me is that by the time he is back, it will be approaching the time when he can speak to other clubs about signing on a bosman at the end of the season. Massive blow this is.
Joe. Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Big blow for us given the importance of our final match. It showed on Saturday that our defence crumbled without him and I hope we don't have another repeat of that. It'd be likely that N'Gotty starts in his place I think, that'd be the sensible option I think despite Bruno's poor performance Saturday.
lookwhaticando Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Did he have something similar when we first signed him? I remember waiting for months for him to make his debut. From the OS at the time: City boss Craig Levein said: "He has had a cartlidge operation on his knee and we thought it would be a good idea if he undertook his rehabilitation here in Leicester rather than up in Hearts. Around August 17th 2005, he still wasn't fully fit (but getting there). At the end of August, he was still only playing reserve games... So we did wait a while for him.
Dr The Singh Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Well, you have to laugh or else you'll Not the end of the world, Fuller would have ripped him apart like the previous occassions!!!
Head Honcho Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 He's had knee trouble before and you are right, he had surgery about 6 months before he signed for us and was out for about 8 months.He won't be sold now, but what bothers me is that by the time he is back, it will be approaching the time when he can speak to other clubs about signing on a bosman at the end of the season. Massive blow this is. Hard luck on the fella but it wouldn't bother me if he never played for us again!
Fat Ron Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Not the end of the world, Fuller would have ripped him apart like the previous occassions!!! Yeah, but was does concern me is that N'Gotty is Kissa's replacement!! Hard luck on the fella but it wouldn't bother me if he never played for us again! I'd actually agree with this, I think he is over rated. Personal opinion.
Dr The Singh Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Yeah, but was does concern me is that N'Gotty is Kissa's replacement!! Oh well he'll get ripped part aswell, him and Sidibe are monsters!!!
SamL Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 It's a shame he'll miss such a vital match on Saturday. It was such a blow when he went on Saturday and it showed. Get well soon Kissa.
Ultra Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Not the end of the world, Fuller would have ripped him apart like the previous occassions!!! Like Fuller won't do the same to Stearman?
Joe. Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Ricardo Fuller's shit. But he always scores against us. Bastard.
Dr The Singh Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Like Fuller won't do the same to Stearman? Like i've said in another thread, Fuller will tear us a third arse, no matter who's in defence!!! We just gotta hope, both\either Sidibe or Fuller have a bad game!!
Ashley Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Get well soon Kisnorbo. Only good side to this he wont be moving in the summer
Uncle Monty Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 give worley a chance - either way we are going to lose, might aswell see what he is about eh?
Micky Ruddle Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 I have a feeling that could be the last time he plays for Leicester. There isn't anyway that he would want to play for a club that hangs around the relegation zone.
Fat Ron Posted 28 April 2008 Posted 28 April 2008 Get well soon Kisnorbo.Only good side to this he wont be moving in the summer No, we will be paying him £8k a week to sit on his arse
