If Rosenior is only out for a month I regard this as good news. Was widely feared he'd be out for 6-8 weeks I thought. LuaLua was obviously going to be out for a fair while yet given he had an operation and the fact we won't rush him back.

I think all the club has really said is that neither will be available in December.

I'll be surprised if we see Lualua before March (not Solly). Rosenior? My guess is end of Jan.

Sorry to be pesimistic but it's based on Kaz's fragility record and the club's optimisim bias on injuries.

If we sign a left back on Jan 1st, we'll know Rosenior is out for a while...

Lua Lua news was on here a day or two ago.

Rosenior is good news, though that was going to be a few months.

We'll be fine if he is back early Jan, and Lua Lua.

No dates on Baldock though? I am guessing he is end of Jan when Man u might recall Wilson...

Although these injuries are not ideal. We are actually sitting top of the league and coping with them well. And I know we have some tough games coming up, which will really test the team; however it seems that no matter who gets put into the team in what position, very few of them are letting anyone down.

They all have a occasional off game but it seems that when they do, their team mates are there to cover for them. No side has been better than us in a match over 90 minutes this season, home or away and that is an absolutely fabulous achievement.

Long may it continue.

3 Key players out and top of the league.

Scary to think we actually have a squad capable of coping with the situation.

I would think a club knows exactly who is injured or likely to be playing against them it would be no secret unless a player like Lua Lua is fitter than said and slips under the radar.

This is it. I expect us to sign a left back in early January. Until then I feel it means we need to continue to be rather attack minded and take the view that attack can be the best form of defence. I am sure other teams suffer injury and have players 'filling in'. Many many years ago when we went up to the First Division as it was then, Mark Lawrenson had a shoulder injury at the end of the season and Eric Winstanley filled in. Now there was a difference there but we went up.

Football is a team game.

Although not good news, the positive thing about these setbacks is how well the team have coped and shown an amazing resolve and never say die attitude. The will to fight and back each other up shows a marvellous team spirit.

I am proud to be an Albion fan.

A lot of credit must go to CH for this. He has a squad that is really together and it must come from him to start.
