Metatarsal

[piddle2k6]

Broke my metatarsal playing football today. Didnt half hurt.

Anyway it got me thinking is this down to the new lightweight boots or just pure luck?

Rooney, Beckham, Neville - the best of them have done it. So why? Post your views.

IMO its pure luck

It has been enhanced by the boots but it's not solely down to them - it's down to the conditions, European football, pitches, balls, socks, training and all that.

They all have something to contribute to it.

Might aswell add Heskey to that list :cry:

I was wearing total 90 touch astros as the ground wouldnt take boots. Omg im in so much pain

No footy for ages aswell

Boots aint just to blame but people wearing light boots will probley get more injureys than people that got normall boots on

Cahill, Vaughan too.

I read on the Everton OS, that they're going to be trying new boots, which will protect their metatarsal better

common injury

hope you recover soon karl

off topic but how has your team started?
we're top with 6 points and scored 21 goals our first season in this division

How did you do it?

Urm its really complicated. Because we "illegally" approached players (********t btw)

were not in the league..

However yesterday we had 9 players for 70 minutes and we beat poole borough who had 15 and came 2 or 3rd in the dorset division.

Not bad imo but tbh it wasnt down to me as i was in hospital by the time we had finished the match First 10 minutes i got injured.
