Fletcher returns tomorrow, can't have been that ill then.

Well he has Crohn's so, yes, he was quite ill.

I can't imagine him being a 25 game a season player anymore though.

Fletcher returns tomorrow, can't have been that ill then.

It prevented him from playing or training between March and September 2011 and again from early December 2011 to date, seems fairly serious to me.

He's been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and there's a chance it may end his career tho experts say there's a 2 in 3 chance of full remission following treatment.

people were talking about him not playing this season, or ever again, yet he's back in the middle of september.

No great love for any rag but good to see him back. Football is football and matters alot bur not more than life and death.

Apparently there was a chance he wouldn't play again, still is a chance it'll end his career as according to google, periods of remission can be followed by relapse (tho as stated above experts also estimate a 2 in 3 chance of full remission). Guess we're also not going to see what, if any, affect his illness has had on his football until he starts playing again.

Finally, it's worth bearing in mind that the guy will have been in a lot of pain over the last couple of years.

All told, a career threatening illness that he's been fighting, off and on, for at least 2 years - I'd be interested to kow what your definition of "that ill" is?

Re: Rags on Groupon

I was in the Cresta Court in Alty, many moons ago for a work night out and the United old players were having some sort of Xmas do there as well, i was pretty wasted and Paddy Crerand had really annoyed me with some of his comments about city, anyway whilst walking to the loo, I walked past Charlton and his wife in the reception area, they were having a photo with someone, i casually walked past and patted him on the head and simply, said you alright Bobby, everyone looked horrified, i just casually walked off to the loo laughing to myself.

I would have paid to watch that, brilliant.
