Interestingly Duck Mag has just pulled his Tweet, of which this was the reply I mean would what really help is if the club actually told fans stuff so this sort of shit didn't have to come out like this presuming he is injured.

Exactly they could head off all this conjecture and rumour... case in point: already obviously with a nod to rumours comments asking where Powell is (he's not shown getting onto plane...most of first team are)

It is concerning.
Wonder if Sawyers would move up the agenda if it was true?

These people make me laugh. “I don’t want to say what anything is because I actually have no idea, but it’s bad”. If it isn’t, they plead ignorance. Lack of specifics is always a good sign of a sad twat desperate for attention. I disagree. I've been told what it allegedly is (ACL) and was told that about an hour ago but didn't post it because well, I bet the club don't know what is actually up with it and the extent so what's the point? Would he even had a scan yet? Etc etc etc. If it is an ACL his season will be over before it’s began. Out of contract by the time he’s fit. Out of curiosity when a player is injured for a significant amount of time are they insured so that they can go out and spend the wages on a loanee? I think I’ve heard international teams contribute towards wages if they’re injured on international duty.

I'm not convinced they should be making statements about a player's injury if the nature of it has not been established. It's impossible to control social media rumouring and leaks etc. They can't be, and shouldn't be responding to every bit of gossip on twitter whether it turns out to be credible or not.

Not that simple. Firstly, the club and player may not yet know what is the situation. Second if it is a bad injury, sharing the knowledge potentially weakens the club’s hand in negotiations with potential replacements, Sawyers for example. Not sure the benefits of sharing details on a behind closed doors friendly to supporters is that great

No they shouldn't but a report on the match it probably happened in and a sentence like "Powell went off after 20 mins" says enough doesn't. Presuming he did it in the match.

Looks like an oven ready excuse for another dull season I've read for the last few weeks on here day after day that he's our best player. It's a pretty shit hand for the manager to deal with after Campbell and Souttar in fairness........

Not sure the benefits of sharing details on a behind closed doors friendly to supporters is that great See my post above about doing it in a round about way with a match report. It controls who is passing this on. Supporters want to know the results, who played etc. Keeping fans in the dark helps no one for any reason.

Fingers crossed it's not that bad and that when the swelling goes down it's only minor damage and he only misses pre season and the first few weeks.
Albeit a fully fit Powell coming off the back of a full pre-season would've been fucking lovely, based on how he started last season!
I'd love to see DWP given a chance to stake his claim at 10 in the meantime, although it more than likely will mean we'll go with a 3 man midfield of Kilkenny, Laurent & Baker rather than a 10 or a 4 man boxed midfield.

Absolutely. Last year was a nightmare and can excuse to an extent us tailing off as the season went on with so many out. Can't ever remember an injury situation like that. Hopefully is something and nothing

At least we can get a replacement, clutching at straws.

We are in quite serious trouble now goes are very hard to see as it is in the squad and here’s another half a dozen or more gone Id suggest we need at least 4 forward loking players now and just can’t see it right now we’d do well to stay out of trouble in simple numbers terms ince . Fletcher , sima , sawyers , Biddace , Maje haven’t been replace from last season so with Powell out too as is now virtually certain we need a miraculous top end of the pitch recruitment drive in the next three weeks we’ve two forwards currently be one of then Campbell no one knows what to expect it was a huge challenge with Powell without him Ora Everest like given the self inflicted constraints we are under

Surely it would be better to write “I haven’t had this confirmed yet, but it appears that…. I will update when I hear more”. Oh look, a sentence that gives people an idea of what’s going on without over exaggerating or relish in the sad art of “I know something you don’t know”. Edit: the club doesn’t need to/shouldn’t do this, but those claiming to be ITK surely only write such vague crap because they are desperate for click bait.

I’ll nail my colours and say DWP wont make the grade at this level long term as a 10 imoact olayer possibly

I didn't do it did I I'm saying why I didn't say anything at all! This is why I think it's pretty crap from the club. They have no control over the comms here and they absolutely should.

Powell is in - we're chatting shit or "Nick Powell was injured at the weekend and we await news of scans". It's really really simple.

There is only about a dozen people in the world making a fuss about it, if that. If he's injured, he's injured, if he's not, he's not. I guess we'll find out in a couple of days. I suppose if it made a difference to whether you bought a season ticket or not on the basis of it then it could be an issue, but maybe waiting a couple of days isn't such a big deal?

I think it does because I don't think this speculation is good tbh. And we shouldn't be finding out about scores from friendlies from DM's, Leeds fans, Leek Town or U18s players. I can't believe there's not been a single word about any of them from official site this weekend.

Makes sense to see the extent of any injury before announcing anything as well if has happened, rather that let people speculate...maybe too late for that though

Nobody needs to know the ins and outs but a line in a match report gives them control over this. An article about who's going before showing a video with Powell missing gives them control over it. Specifics aren't needed.
