From the paper

 

Hastings United are waiting to discover the extent of an injury to in-form striker Trevor McCreadie.

The 19-year-old was taken to hospital after damaging his foot in an under-21 gameame on Monday night and was due to undergo an MRI scan yesterday (Thursday) morning.

United manager John Maggs said: “It’s not as bad as we thought. He’s getting about and he feels it won’t be long before he’s back. It’s still not good news. He’s settled down in the side really well and got a good partnership going with Poguey (Kenny Pogue).

“This is what happens in football. What we’ve got to do is get him back on the pitch and fingers crossed that it’s going to be shorter rather than longer.”

Tom Vickers was sent-off in the same game, but it looks as though he won’t miss any first team fixtures through suspension. The midfielder will be banned for the first under-21 match in the new year.

McCreadie, Vickers and Ronnie Dolan all had run-outs in the under-21s as they were cup-tied for the first team game at Maidstone United the following night.

“There has been some criticism about why did they play on Monday night, but that’s what the under-21s are for,” continued Maggs. “I’ve done it all season. Those three players didn’t have a game this week and I made sure every player did their week’s work. This is football; life has to go on.”

 

Ryman Division One South leaders United are fixtureless tomorrow (Saturday), but will be in action on Monday night at home to 10th-placed Walton & Hersham.

Trevor has been given the all clear and has been told that he can play as soon as he feels able to. He was running and kicking a ball today with no ill effect and may even play on Monday.

The scan was only yesterday and I think we have to take into consideration that the webmaster like many of us is a volunteer and that he also has a job and a family which obviously takes a priority. Giving that there isn't a game tomorrow and that the results of the scan have only made their way back to the club this evening I think its understandable that nothing has been reported until now.
The good news is that McCreadie is fit, I know a lot of people are interested but we must look at the bigger picture.

 Good news and indeed the fact that this forum is run by volunteers is - again - important to say.

wasn't having a go at the volunteers who I have the upmost respect for lenny,just a tongue in cheek remark of past instanceswhen the club has kept a blank sheet and not let supporters know whats going on,nothing more.

Dave I wasn't suggesting you were, I was merely trying to point out the "background" to why the story maybe hadn't been put on the website that's all. Honestly it was not meant as a dig at you and I'm sorry if it came across like that.

Tom has played for Sussex many times before representing Sussex schools so it's no real surprise if I'm asked. I do however agree with Barry 3 games in 5 days is a big ask.

Doesn't the club have any say in this. The game should not go ahead given the circumstances. Last thing we need is for Tom to get injured. I

I assume that it is is similar to an international call up at higher level? the FA ( Sussex or otherwise ) write their own rules :(

I believe that it is a similar thing and if its like in youth football you can only postpone a game if you have a number of players involved in the rep squad.
