I heard that March was injured at Crawley last night, which is a great shame given his stop start career with us to date. Does anyone know how bad his injury is please? I can't see any info about this anywhere. I'm hoping to see a lot more of Solly this season, and hope he's not out again for weeks/months.

Thanks - hopefully just a sprain rather than a break. I can't believe the bad luck March is having with injuries.

I think it's a make or break season for him. Houghton is going to want to use him on the flank and if Solly can cut it (every indication is that he can) then it'll be very exciting. If he's not making an impression I wouldn't be at all surprised if he moves on. There's already whispers about him.

He lasted around 23 minutes, went down under a tackle. Recieved attention from the physio and went back on but couldnt run. Hopefully not to serious but from where i was standing you could see he was upset and thumped the ground.

He does tend to look fragile/light-weight on occasions but to be fair, I think, so do many wingers.

He's just turned 21, with limited league experience. I don't think it's quite a make or break season. Crikey, give the lad a chance. I'm willing to wait a couple of years at least. I agree with you though, all the indicators are there for him to be a very good player. If he does have a good season, the prem clubs will be watching.

Oh hell, not again.

Would hate for him to be a 'what if'/'if only' football story like Dean Ashton (a good career but went wrong just as he was stepping up) or Michael Johnson (what a fall from potential stardom).

I'd happily give him longer to develop - he's got real natural talent. I wouldn't want him to leave anytime soon, but there's whispers he's keen to explore other opportunities. Another disjointed season and a decent offer and perhaps he'd consider it.

Think his hopes of moving on to better things would be helped if he actually proved he can play first. :rolleyes:

If he's thinking of moving on before he's played more than a couple of games on the spin without getting injured maybe we should cash in now? He has done nothing except draw a salary so far.

Would be surprised if anyone came in with a decent offer tbf - he's done nothing so far other than flashes of skill - he needs a full season of consistent performances imo

The less he plays, the better he gets. I bet JFC wishes he could get an injury and maybe he would be as highly regarded as Solly.
