Today

[Peabody]

Whilst putting away my Christmas decorations, I missed a step on the ladder, fell over, and I think I have broken a rib(could have been worse) but it is painful. Anyway, it has got me thinking, in future, I will come to Fulham, enjoy the football and not worry whether we get promoted or not, because reading some of your stuff, you are going to make yourself's I'll. Those of you who want rid of Scott, are not going to get your wish, unless Mr Khan decides, to give him the tin tac.

But it is highly unlikely that I am going to make the Villa game. So come on boys, prove all these doomsayers wrong.

Get better quickly Peabody - wish you well

You have my sympathies Peabody, sorry to hear that. that is painful.  We put ours away also today, (I do wonder how many more times they will go up and down) my wife does the clambering now. I am with you, I support my team, obviously I prefer it when we win and it is annoying when we keep losing games by the same principle, but we are are one of top sides in the Championship, we have the league's leading scorer and we have a new riverside stand going up.  Get well soon. :54:

Thank you and good night

Get well soon Mr P, you're quite right. I haven't written off the Villa match but the silver lining of a loss presumably means the Charlton game stays on the Saturday?

I don't recall losing hurting so much as it does now but I suppose we've been spoilt for a good few years that I've forgotten the pain of the bad old days.  We're also surrounded by different forms of media, not just a Vidi-printer reporting the score, MoTD & a report in the following days paper if you're lucky.

Yes bruised ribs and rib cartilages can be very painful, let alone a broken rib. I hope you can recover asap.
But what I don't understand is, why were you up a ladder looking through the lady next doors bedroom window in the first place. Or in the second place we're you climbing out of the window to get back onto the ladder ?

Sorry to hear of the accident Peabody, be careful now and get well soon.
My decorations usually go up before my birthday on 7th December and stay up until 12th night. I find it such an effort that I believe in getting a few weeks use out of them.

get well soon Mr P

[Kent Cassandra]

I have just moved back to Kent from London and am refurbishing our new home.
I have just bruised my ribs and that is bad enough so I sympathise with you Mr P.
Her indoors says that I should be taking it easy at my age and pay to have the work done
but old habits die hard.  I am a little bit slower nowadays but can still do a good job and
am proud of myself on completion.   First time I have posted in a while for precisely the
reasons you give.  We all want to compete against the big boys but the championship is a
great league, unpredictable, no airs or graces, no prima donnas and no one gets by on reputation.
Unlike others on here I am enjoying this season, and win , lose or draw I will sing and shout a bit
louder to cover up your absence on Saturday.

Bad news about your fall. I fell out the loft once, nearly killed myself.

Anyway, why don't you just ignore the 'negative' posters that annoy you so much? It's easy to do on a forum like this!

It seems a little strange to post something negative in response to something you consider negative.

But that's my opinion

[Andy S]

I hope it begins to feel better soon Peabody. All of us that have done something similar can sympathise with you and yes it bloody hurts

[Peabody]

Just been to the docs and it's not a rib but the top of my hip. Hey ho, still going to miss the match tomorrow

[RaySmith]

Bruised/broken ribs are very painful, and can take a few weeks to heal, so I hope you make a  quick recovery Peabody, sufficient to be able to get back down to the Cottage, and bring back your reports for us.

But make sure you're all right first, your health is more important.

[ALG01]

Wish you a speedy rcovery.
I cracked my ribs a year or so ago and iunfortunately it hurts for a while but suddenly it all seems OK again and the world becomes a brighter place.

[OldBrownShoe]

All the best for a speedy recovery Sir Peabody. :Haynes The Maestro: Take it easy. And don't get over excited about the transfer window. You will know by now how that works at our Club. 051

[Dr Quinzel]

That's a real ball-ache of an injury - sorry fella. Hope your recovery is good.

[Burt]

Wishing you a speedy recovery Mr P.

I prescribe chocolate and alcohol for the pain :)

[Woolly Mammoth]

The good news is that it hurts more when you laugh, so you are safe watching Fulham for the time being.

[Frackleheath]

Sorry to hear about your mishap Mr P, hope you're feeling a bit better - I can give you a few tips about hips! Next time just get the wifey to stand at the bottom of the ladder so that you've got a softer landing!!

I'll send you an honest opinion of the Villa game over the weekend, you can then compare with the usual garbage.

Keep your feet up.
