Harry Pinchard & Josh Taylor | Knee | Expected Return To Play – End Of September And October Respectively

Harry and Josh continue to make positive progress as they gradually increase their training load ahead of returning to action. The pair trained together this week, completing their first ball based work and recording a significant increase in overall running distance. Both players will continue to build their fitness carefully over the coming weeks.

Jimmy Muitt | Knee | Expected Return To Play – End of September

Jimmy continues to increase the load through his knee, although the recent injection has not had the impact initially hoped for. He will continue working through the planned stages of his rehabilitation programme, with a return to running expected in the near future.

Dan Gallagher | Back | Expected Return To Training – September

Dan has taken another encouraging step forward after returning to running during the past week. He experienced no adverse reaction following the sessions and has now entered the final stages of his rehabilitation. A return-to-fitness assessment is planned in the near future as he moves closer to rejoining full training.

Isaac Philpot | Ankle | Expected Return To Play – ASAP

Isaac returned to training this week and will undergo a final assessment on Thursday. His response to the session will be monitored closely before a decision is made regarding his availability for Saturday’s fixture against Maidstone United.

Dan Pybus | Groin | Expected Return To Play – ASAP

Dan was rested and carefully managed during Saturday’s match after reporting tightness in his groin. His condition will continue to be monitored by the medical and performance team as a precaution.

Contrast

Not one switch: more contrast helps some readers, less helps others.

Following your device: default contrast.

Page colour

Black text on a white page is the harshest combination there is. A tint takes the glare off without making the text harder to read.
