It takes time after a long injury to get back to match fitness 08:23 - Feb 2 with 1775 views | muccletonjoe | This is a regular quote from most Paul Lambert pressers of late , usually referring to Bishop. He HAS been out for a long while, but he has been back in full training for 2 months , has looked sharp in his sporadic appearances for the first team and scored a hat -trick for the U23s in midweek. So the question I am asking the messiah is how much longer are we going to wheel out spiel that he has been out for a long time and continue to play loan players to make it even longer???? | | | | |

Quite. I'm interested to hear what this chap's credentials are that make him think he has a better idea of Teddy's match fitness than the staff at the club. I imagine they must be pretty impressive for him to confidently make such a call. | |

Absolute claptrap. You can get injured at anytime in any game. Providing you are training with no problems for 10 weeks , you need games to bring the sharpness back. But if you take that theory to a conclusion , then you continue loaning players so our own don't get injured ?!!? | | | |

Saw enough in the second half last week to think that Judge, Shalamar, Skuse and Downes have got enough about them to get us 3 points today even though I'm not expecting much more than a 1-0 win and a backs to the wall last 20 minutes when they send on Little John. | |

What credentials can you possibly have that will prevent players getting injured. It happens every week. | | | |

Positive, in normal circumstances I think we have a more flair three than those in the middle, but now isn't the time for flair, more grind until we can unleash, | | | | Login to get fewer ads

I'm asking what credentials you have that make you think you're better placed to make a judgement about Bishop's match fitness than the staff at the club. I'm just curious as you seem quite forthright about it. | |

As he has already played first team football, I don't think you or they need worry about it | | | |

So I'm guessing you don't have any specific credentials that make you more expert than the staff at ITFC on Bishop's readiness to start a Championship game. You could have just said that when I asked the first time. | |

Why do you need credentials to have an opinion. Training for 10 weeks usually means fit. If you have to be match fit to pkay that is an impossibility. Also, the new signings gave no recent match fitness between them. | | | |

None of the new signings are coming straight from a year on the treatment table though and they don't have a history of breaking down every time they come back like Teddy does. I expect we'll see him playing soon, when he's ready. | |

I think if we are playing 4-2-3-1 that 10 role when Judge gets leggy is ideal for Bishop. He didn't do much at Blackburn, he did have a clear goal disallowed by a missed handball though. But between that and Accrington you saw that if he gets a chance to have a pop on goal or put someone through he will. That could make or break a game. However, it's an ask to build teams around that sort of impact sub. For me, Teddy is probably 5th or 6th choice for midfield at the moment. He needs a break somewhere to force Lambert's hand. Downes and Chalobah are wavy, but with Skuse behind them effective. Really we need Bishop to do what we wanted from Nolan and show he can play without supervision and lead the team a bit more. Hopefully that's not beyond him at all. | |

Although we all want to see Bish playing in the first team again regularly. | |
