Adam Forshaw - Not Available Again?

[johnh]

In my last game I got knocked spark out through a clash of heads. The only time I was ever knocked out. I was concussed for a week and had to cancel several business meetings. My firm, who had been very good over the years (they knew I played football and dropped hints from time to time about packing it in, but never forced the issue.) finally issued an ultimatum. Who knows, if they hadn't, I still might be playing!

PS There are times when her indoors reckons I'm still concussed!

then an innocuous turn on a dodgy pitch broke my leg in 2 places.

that's exactly how my career ended, got my studs caught in the ground, turned and snap as I was passing the ball, did both tib & fib and was 8 month incapacitated as they wanted it to heal naturally and without pins etc, was only 29 at the time. Went into coaching although did play Futsal several years later.
