Brighton Injury Situation - A Crisis?

[whitelion]

The current situation as regards injury is I believe as follows:

Long-Term Injured

Dean Blackwell
Simon Rodger


Short-Term Injured

Paul Watson
Chris McPhee
Richard Carpenter


How "close" are Simon Rodger and Dean Blackwell to being back in the first team. We hear from time to time positive noises then no more news about them that they could almost not exist.

As regards the short-term injured I've heard that McPhee is almost ready to resume training. Richard Carpenter's injury is not as bad as first thought and he could be back training in two weeks or so. Paul Watson - how serious is his injury? Do we care?

We're going to need all the bodies in midfield that MM is assembling at the moment if Rodger and Carpenter continue to have problems.

Have I missed any from the five mentioned?

That is right

How close is "close"? This is my point. Can you be more specific?

Carpenter should be ready very soon (needs match fitness)
