Can you send the data please? Would love to read more.

Provide 3 peer reviewed studies and I might waste a moment or 3 on looking at them

Not bad but most of the goup had pre existing health conditions

"Of the 67 inflammatory heart disease cases, 21 (31.3%) had received a SARS-Cov-2 vaccination within 60 days before the onset of their disease. This resulted in a rate of inflammatory heart disease postvaccine of 2.30 per 100 000 vaccinated patients. There were 780 903 unvaccinated patients during the same time period, and they have a 60-day rate of inflammatory heart disease of 1.96 per 100 000 patients. This results in a vaccine-attributable risk proportion of 14%. For the 30-day window, the rate of inflammatory heart disease was 1.96 per 100 000 vaccinated patients and 1.05 per 100 000 unvaccinated patients. This results in a substantial vaccine-attributed risk proportion of 47%."
And a relatively small sample size as well...... Carry on

Tat!

I want evidence that Covid vaccines have led to an increase in the number of hamstring injuries amongst lower league footballers!

Signing injury-prone players, different pitches, more matches, faster modern game, etc. All these factors surely play their part in the increasing number of injuries. That said, I'm pretty sure we almost always have more than most.

My scientifically baseless conclusion is simply that we're jinxed. The Gods have conspired against us forever to guarantee that we maintain our fighting spirit and ability to get results against the odds. Long live the injury-ravaged underdog!

Do players still get injected with a variety of painkillers and anti inflammatory drugs to get through games and store up damage for when they retire early due to cumulative damage?

They do and if that happened in pro cycling still (where most teams have a no needle policy), there would be outrage. Yet football, rugby, tennis etc get away pretty much scott free.

The issue is signing to many injury prone players. Take them away and we’d have half the injuries.

Mcgloire for example, made of absolute glass and we experienced that first hand the season before signing him. Beggars belief.

You said vaccines, the study looks at COVID infections......... Nice try

 "Our results show the correlation between COVID-19 infection and an increase in indirect muscle injuries in professional football players. Furthermore, this study highlights how the severity of the infection would represent an additional risk factor. Moreover, we demonstrated how COVID-19 level I infection does not seem to affect the risk of muscle injury more than normal football activity. Considering that no difference in time to RTP after infections was found, these data suggest that the short-term detraining effects due to the time loss, but probably also a direct action of the virus and the inflammatory process triggered by the virus on muscle tissue, could be associated with a greater risk of indirect muscle lesions.
However, the continuous evolution of the virus and the lack of studies focused on musculoskeletal system damage is preventing us from drawing definitive conclusions. More studies are needed to clarify the role of COVID-19 in causing football muscle injuries."

COVID vaccine, check out the stats before and after in terms of heart conditions and injuries.

This has always seemed nonsensical and short-sighted to me.

There's this belief in football that if you aren't prepared to play through injuries you're too soft and not committed to the cause. But all that happens is players end up putting in sub-par performances since they're not 100% and just takes them longer to get back to their peak ability. Many careers have ended prematurely because of this.

But all that suggests is the vaccine is actually a good preemptive measure. The rate of muscle injuries increased from having reduced VO2 max output after contracting Covid.
