It nay depend on what fixtures we get as ti whether it's a month earlier or later. You imagine they want him to get an easy run out first.

Have you become Scottish?

That quote doesn't sound like the timescale you're talking about

I seen and heard him with my own eyes.

Even if it's 9 month, he's back in march.

Whatever his start date we have to be careful here that we adopt the correct plan B.
Assuming he misses 6 or 7 matches thats 30% of the season (1 st stage) so that might put the team under presssure to ensure they finish in the top 8.
Hopefully Walshy is a quick healer and returns as soon as possible.

No that's not what I meant. I just thought, Having read the whole article, that he seems upbeat and happy now that the threat to his career is over and he seemed to think he would be back sooner rather than later. It may just be the way the quotes were written down, but he seemed to be hinting that he'd be back in training early in pre season. I haven't spoken to him personally so I could be wrong.

It's a horrific injury and I'm sure will take a long time before he's back playing to his best and got his confidence back.

The bottom line of that page on saints is telling us to get our seasons tickets bought

He might well be back in training but there is no way he'll play at the start of next season, I think the best case scenario as far as walsh goes is back after easter , build confidence and hopefully suffer no reaction(which he is bound to do at first) and be in fine fettle for the play off.

He was interviewed on Granada Reports last night. His cast comes off next week and then he's in a boot for four weeks after which he starts weight bearing again. So I don't think your timescale fits with what is actually happening. I reckon he'll be good to go for the start of the new season.
