Jenkins Injury Misery

Jenkins Faces More Injury Misery

Home >Story Index> Jenkins Faces More Time Out

Jenks, who was playing well in the right back role before injuring himself back in October had only just worked his way back to full fitness and had come through a reserve team game at Bath last week unscathed.
He was expected to travel to Oxford with the squad last Saturday but an accidental clash with Nick Cusack last Friday in training saw his knee swell up and Richie Evans confirmed today that he will face at least two weeks out.
With Terry Evans seemingly making the right back spot his own, Jenkins now has to seem content with trying to force his way back into the reckoning when he is fit unless he sees his luck change for the better.
Meanwhile, conflicting stories fly round Swansea today about the potential ownership of the club. Initial reports said the deal with Mel Griffin was dead and buried after Petty allegedly decided he wanted to retain 30% of the club. However, further rumours said that the deal was not yet dead and that Mel Griffin could still take control of Swansea City.
Other rumours suggested that Doug Sharpe and Mel Nurse could be part of the same consortium - stories that I find very laughable on the basis that Messrs Nurse and Sharpe are not, shall we say, the best of friends!
Whatever happens to the ownership of Swansea City, we are in desperate need of better times behind the scenes and as Nigel Saunders pointed out it is a miracle we are where we are in the league at the moment. Whoever comes in, better do so with the best of intentions and it is well documented what some of those intentions entail!

Swansea City : The confusing decision making for a whole season
It was a pretty poor end to what can only be described as a disappointing football season for Swansea City. The defeat to Millwall yesterday was a display that has frustrated Swansea City supporters all season. A lack of effort, intensity and desire rewarding the home support with yet another home loss.

Swansea City : Grimes misses a penalty in a return to bad old ways
An error strewn and tepid Swansea display ensured thousands left the stadium before the staff and players did their usual walk around at this end of season game. It wasn’t a good look as two players received red cards and any effort by the home side was lost in a static and frustrating display.
Swansea City : Last game of the season, latest injury news and the full low down on the big game
Today brings the Championship season to a close for the majority of the clubs involved, and the Swans face Millwall at 12.30pm today at the Swansea.com stadium. Just over 1,100 visiting supporters have made the journey in what we hope is a celebration of the end of the season for both clubs.

The Indy’s lead football writer, Andrew Winfield goes in deep on this weeks issues and the real problems in store for the Swans.
Swansea City : The facts on players in and out and the strategy behind it
This week has seen some bad financial news for the Swans, and of course more questions than answers yet again. That aside there is some great news from the age grade side at U21 as once again we see a player knocking on the door of the first team squad.
Swansea City : Has Andrew Coleman been in the shower for three months with Bobby Ewing ?
The changing timeline of when Andrew Coleman became Chairmen of Swansea City caused a stir yesterday, our twitter account getting well over eleven thousand views and increasing, which sent website views here in to their many thousands as well.
Swans supporters consult Kieran Maguire and when did Andy start as Chairman ?
News of Swansea City’s financial position hit home yesterday as the club announced further losses. The profit and sustainability rules are forever hanging over a club, and in Swansea City’s case like everyone else it’s a rolling three year issue.
Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v Millwall
Glyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure
Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
