Dominic Revan was ok at right back when we had him on loan from Aston Villa last season and he has been released and looking for a club.
I immediately wondered about his availability. I thought he was excellent in the FL Trophy against Walsall. I'd definitely invite him to training and take it from there.

Having worked for over 20 years in the nhs I am fully aware of how things work. The private sector has for many years picked up nhs work where they have capacity and waits are expected to be excessive. Locally Three Shires and Woodlands near Kettering pick up ops. Consultants are normally employed on sessional basis and many also do private work so it could often be the same surgeon doing an op in your local nhs theatre or indeed in a private setting. Waiting lists do vary across the nhs as do results which is why the option on choose and book gives some flexibility on one hand although it may give the person logistical challenges if you choose miles away. The private sector is always better placed to respond to an opportunity compared to local government and nhs as they are funded differently and take business risks compared to the bureaucracy of public funded bodies as the wheels turn a lot slower as we see through redevelopment issues. Things could always be better and funding, efficiency and staffing better. Either way I hope that McGowan recovers quickly and we get decent quality cover as needed. Have a great day.

Did you see him against BR away? Rabbit in the headlights!

My sentiments, also.

No. That's disappointing to hear. He appeared an accomplished RB and CH against Walsall though I acknowledge that the FL trophy is a different kettle of fish to a league game.

4.5 out of 10 rating from Chrons James Heneghan. Positionally awful that day. Still everyone can have a bad game.

Has it been disclosed anywhere when the operation actually took place? It might have been done in May, with a four to six month rehab period?
Maybe the extent of this injury, and subsequent communication of the operation was being kept quiet whilst ongoing negotiations with new RB signings was being carried out?
Public knowledge of our urgent need for a RB will undoubtedly be music to agents ears.
https://www.ntfc.co.uk/news/2022/june/mcgowan_300622/Answered that one quickly! So they do know what they are doing after all?

Is this transfer related or aimed at getting some attention?
Aim you messages at the instigators; at Zen and Tabasco! If you dare that is

I remember Gillingham put some players that didn't feature in their plans on the NHS waiting list rather than pay for private treatment. This ended in them losing a race discrimination case.
Anyway it seams a few posters have been making some assumptions without knowing the facts

We are indeed but was disappointed that you of all pundits on here resorted to "snipes"

I rarely bite but you do tend to bring that out in people on here. Only a month to go until we can compliment or complain about the football rather than each other.

Whilst I might disagree with Evers on lots of things but on this I agree - the vast majority of elected surgery on professional sportsmen and women is done privately - but there is only so much resource be it NHS or Private and if a lot of NHS cases were shifted to private providers then defacto some non urgent surgery is likely to be delayed - having said that no one knows the full medical history on McGowan - he may have been progressing ok without surgery and things took a turn for the worse.
Bottom line is that it's bad news and we definitely need cover there
(Incidentally the health care insurance and direct health care bills for football clubs are not trivial and just another aspect to consider for those individuals who think they can run the club's finances on the back of a fag packet or know better than the owners about the true cost of ownership)
Sure you are right but the real bottom line is "money and plenty of it" generally gets you the desired attention (no pun intended M/Curly).

Having been recently spent nearly three months in hospital, I would like to think that I am well versed to the reality of the NHS. Anyway, whats the matter with you? Had your hip replacement cancelled? Now be a good boy, and try not to make yourself look foolish again.
You patronising know all! It would appear you know very little on NHS/Waiting lists. The least you could have done is Googled the comments before offering expert view point. There are some very juicy articles on Private / NHS relations in the Pandemic mainly by left wing fronted organisations but the Times and Telegraph weigh in also with some equally juicy comments. Guardian had a field day! Now be a good boy ............................etc

Will not respond to any more comments on NHS/Waiting Lists as it is off topic and I know it bores people silly. Like most, prefer transfer rumours much more entertaining. NB Zen what is the funny looking emoji after "exactly" never seen it before! Got it - No probs!

Thought he was a bit non existent in some games. For me buyer beware!

I'm glad they've finally confirmed it, but only because people got talking on here about it. In the good old days we would have known as soon as he needed an operation. What's the reason for secrecy? I thought it was bad when KC was manager for the hold back of information on injuries but it seems almost as bad now.

Given there's no rumours floating about, I'm going to make up some of my own:
Elliot Lee - inside forward released by luton, history playing with Hylton. Reece Brown - attacking mid released by posh, maybe a little out of our budget. Angus McDonald - centre back released by Rotherham Jordan Willis - centre back (can play right too) released by sunderland, cov boy originally Paul Downing - centre back released by Pompey, hasn't played much in recent seasons Sam Hutchison - centre / right back released by Shef weds, maybe pricey
