O'Keefe and Dempsey injury news.

[nitram77]

It was a very good header nitram.
I’d have been chuffed if Oliver had scored a header like that.
Tucker was the nearest but had no chance due to the pace and accuracy of the cross.
It was a good goal.

It was a very good goal and I was actually defending Tucker not criticizing him, the fact is the ball travelled from their goal, through midfield, checked back, forward again, out wide, crossed for the goal, not one player put any pressure on the ball or even tried to get in the way, as I said not a player within a yard of the ball.

Maybe i need to watch it again, as i thought it was crossed in from wide? Anyone got the highlights?

Also worth looking at SE having a word with Tucker at the end of the 90 mins when the players are by the Gills dugout

Why, what was he saying?
Was he angry or something, or just advising, encouraging, checking?

 

[Archiepoptart]

Watched the highlights and SE just has a quite word with him. Looked like he was giving encouragement or a bit of advice

Perhaps he wanted to take a penalty.That being the case the right call was made as all of the penalty takers took confident and professional penalties. That's not to say Tucker couldn't but nor could he have done any better.

Ah good. GordonSilver made it sound (to me) a bit more sinister with the emoji.

Has the club made a statement about the extent of O'Keefe's injury? They must now have a medical opinion on the injury.

SE has just confirmed at the press conference that O’Keefe is out for the season.

Also said we are still searching the transfer market and are close to one signing. I take it this was after the signing of Josh Eccles.

Dempsey also been confirmed to be out for 6 weeks after rolling his ankle.
