Jody Gormley and Longstone have parted company after last nights defeat.

[NP 76]

Heard that rumour on wednesday Redand black but didnt like to post it as wasnt 100% sure heard Mark Polands father taking over .

[southdown]

Gormley went on Monday after the Ballyholland defeat

[extra time]

good to see ambrose back on the pitch last night. he got about 15 mins and was on the ball a couple of times. obviously a bit nervous looking at first. great to see him back!

[RGU08]

Anyone know if Martin Clarke played last night for the Kingdom?

[extra time]

martin played full game and scored a penalty goal and a few frees. started at corner forward and ended up centre half.

Point and Clone match must have been a good match going by the score . Can see the top 3 positions in this division being a real battle between 5 or 6 teams.

[NP 76]

Isnt it great to hear Ambrose back on the field again hope he gets some decent game time before the end of May without any complications

[downredblack]

Great news and best of luck to the lad . He is due some .

There shouldn't be any complications to expect. It's not like a player returning after a hamstring tear where it may not be fully healed and possibly weak. In Ambrose's case he is well past the healing phase for the operation. There should be no real risk of re-occurrance. As far as the operation goes he could have been training at least 2 months ago so the ligament should be well knitted tgether. The problem was that he picked up an infection in his knee (remember he has no spleen and that may have been an influence, I don't know for sure). Now that the infection is gone he should have no higher risk in training than any other player.

[NP 76]

From what i hear Paul it was the lack of the Spleen that is doing the harm picking up infections and then harder to get rid of them . A big boost to have available to call upon before the championship
