Title: What the hell does Denham do?
Post by: OldhamAlty on October 13, 2008, 04:04:04 PM
From main site:

Chris Denham (right) missed Sunday's game due to a workplace accident which resulted in him having to have two stitches inserted in his eye during a two-day stay in hospital. He will be out of action for at least a month and, given the nature of the injury, the date of his return is difficult to predict.

That's a blow for us and sounds like it could be quite a lenghty lay off.

An excuse not to play him for a month or so until the transfer window in January?

"Hi Chris can you put 2 stitches in your eye so i dont have to play you for a month or so"

"Yeah, ok, sounds like a plan"

I believe he is a tiler & the splinters came from a tile being cut.I understand that whilst the injury is quite serious,it could have been much much worse as the splinters damaged the eye very close to his retina & he could easily have lost his sight in that eye.

Was there talk of him being a taxi driver as well?

Despite my comments above, stitches actually IN the eye could be serious indeed.

Hard luck Chrissy D. Your eyesight is even more important than football, so take care.
