Herbert. Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Would be a big loss but if he feels he won't recover 100% it's for the best. I wouldn't want him to come back for the sake of it and start to struggle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I hope not. Even if he dropped to being our number 2 and GK coach or something that would be brilliant.

BigAlim Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Seem to remember reading a long time ago that Craig fancied himself as a manager rather than a goalie coach.

brunoatemyhamster Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Do you know what? I reckon that's good news He deserves to put his feet up. Getting him tied up to the coaching staff, and not knocking his pan in to get back for what might amount to a year or two maximum sounds great to me. Health first. He's earned it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckies1874 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I mean he's 40, not sure what everyone was expecting. If he managed another match in maroon it would be amazing to give him the send off he deserves but that injury at his age in the position he plays........asking a hell of a lot. He's also recently witnessed a changing of the guard at international level and Germany is what 15 months away so that's ambitious to say the least. Maybe he's decided with the changes coming at Hearts and a young family and a hugely demanding recovery programme that the time is right.

WageThief Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I heard he's retiring because he had a threesome (probably involving Cochrane's bird and Snodgrass). Although he maybe just made loads of cash in a money market fund. It depends how you read the text I received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batistuta87 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, robjam said: he needs to get the steel plate in leg removed If this is true then something has gone wrong. They only take them out if there's a problem because it leaves the bone weaker since they literally just remove everything and don't fill in the holes. It's like breaking the bone all over again too with an additional 6+ weeks recovery. Would be very surprised to see him play again if this is the case.

The fact it has been 13 months and he is still nowhere near a return tells me this. 6-12 months for regular recovery. Considering footballers have got to recover and then get back to full match fitness, which takes a while when you've been on your arse for a year, it's not unusual for them to be out for as much as 12-18 months.
