The injury Sam suffered early on in the 2nd leg of our playoff semi-final match against Clyde has been scanned and assessed by a specialist. Unfortunately, it has now been confirmed that Sam has suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) which will require surgery to fix, and he is scheduled to undergo an operation in a few weeks.
Regrettably, this injury means Sam will be unable to play football or work in his day job as a coach for a significant period of time.
Our popular fan podcast, Glory Days of Gold, have kindly agreed to start a GoFundMe page to provide a little help with both the cost of the procedure and Sam’s loss of income as a result of this injury.
The club and our Physio Jeb Spink will continue to support Sam through his rehabilitation and look forward to seeing him back playing football in the future.
For anyone wishing to contribute to the GoFundMe page can do so here.
