Lord Mouldywart 0 Posted April 7, 2006 Interesting reading for anyone suggesting injuries were a major factor in our relegation, we actually had relatively few (what is going on at Newcastle?) http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/2004_05/injury_analysis_1.php Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0King Juan of SpainddMMyyyy0Falseen-USTrue 0 Posted April 7, 2006 It doesn''t account for who those were though - Bentley, Safri and Helveg all had long term injuries and they turned out to be key players. Neither does it account for the size of the squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
