Leroy Lita out with Broken Toe

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine was in Hospital yesterday where he saw Leroy Lita in the bed alongside, who broke his toe yeterday in training. I''m surprised this story hasn''t broken out yet but I would imagine a broken toe keeps you out for 2-3 weeks atleast...so looks like we have seen the last of him sadly.

I had a broken ankle and I never got a bed lol, mind you I guess it depends on the break and if he needs an operation <<shrug>>, they are delicate flowers these footballers. [:S]

It is possible to play with a broken toe, but unlikly that a professional would play with one as usually they have to be ''100%'' fit to play. Plus it depends which toe you have broken also.

I wonder if he was able to jumpthe queue to get seen. Took me about 2 hours for someone to tell me it looked like my clavicle was broken (it was really obvious as well due to it sticking half way out of my skin) and then another hour wait just for an x-ray!! I couldn''t imagine Lita sitting there for 3 hours waiting for this!!

Toes normally take 2 to 4 weeks to heal properly, but they heal in time and given rest.

And yes i''m suprised he didn''t go private on his money, I am sure I would have done.

Yes this was at the NNUH. And yes I would have thought he wold have private healthcare and would not have been taken to hospital for something minor like a broken toe. The person who started this thread is a friend of mine who doesn''t start threads for the sake of it so either the person who told him read one of the threads on here from last night or its true!

Well if your mate is right then we will most likely not see Lita in a NC shirt again.  However I find it kind of odd that there is nothing on the official website to say he is even injured, let alone in hospital.

Doesn''t the NNUH have BUPA patients as well though, I mean if that''s who he had private healthcare with, or am I mistaken?

Surely Leroy wouldn''t need a bed though for a broken toe! When I my big toe broke playing football there was nothing they could do for it, and it was fairly comfortable to walk on, just not to play football with! And as someone said yesterday, isn''t Bertrand the one with a dodgy toe at the moment?

They do treat private patients there too. They have a lovely free (well, not if you count the £100 a month or so!) coffee machine in one of the waiting rooms, and choccy biscuits!

Indeed, and proper milk to go with tea or coffee, china cups and mugs too.

My sister had her leg amputated in the private wing, amazing, it''s a different world than the NHS part.

Even down to the fact that they make you what you want to eat, when you want to eat lol.

To be fair none have moaned about the NHS.  If I really wanted to moan then I could say my sister had her knee op in an NHS hospital, caught a nasty bug and then had to have her leg amputated by BUPA.  Or that my dad died through a tumour on his lung being mis-diagnosed by a Jnr Doctor as fluid.

The Doctors, nurses, specialists and all who work in the NHS do a grand job with what resources they have.  However we as tax payers pay in part for that.

Not saying this is nonsense, but has anyone, ever, met or known anyone to be in a hospital bed with a broken toe?No?  Thought not.

When I had my heart attack, the nurses and doctors at James Paget Hospital were second to none, I owe them my life.
