'Keeper Petr Cech has this morning sent a get well message and an invitation offering help and advice to Barnsley's Iain Hume who is recovering a sustaining a fractured skull last weekend. It was two years ago that Cech's skull was fractured in a collision with Reading's Stephen Hunt.
Cech message says, "I would like to wish Iain well on his recovery. "I went through a similar experience and if he needs any advice or help at any stage I'm here to offer it. "Whatever it took I knew that every day I would have to set up a little target, because every day I wanted to do better than the previous day. "Even though sometimes it's really hard to take, because everyone is different and everyone takes to it differently, you really need to listen to your body. When the body told me to stop I knew there was no point doing my programme when I knew it wouldn't be doing any good. So it's important to listen to the body.
"What I experienced is that I had to forget about the time it took to recover from the injury. I was not looking at the time, whether is was six months or six weeks.
"Sometimes it was hard, because every day I felt differently, but I made to small goals to achieve the big ones, which was to return to the pitch.
"Basically, the recovery is like a football game. You need to be careful and concentrate on everything you do, every second, because I think this is the key for the recovery. There will be ups and downs, but Iain has been a professional footballer for a long time, and he's got a lot of experience. If he approaches the recovery with the same attitude he would a match he will reach his target.
"So I wish him well and I am ready to help or offer further advice if he needs it."
VERY NICE GESTURE,,,HATS OF TO HIM.
"It is born out of hypocrisy and fundamental insecurity. There have been two kids on the block for the past 12 years. Suddenly, there is a third and that one is threatening to be more successful than the others and they don’t like it." P Kenyon.
Well, hope he recovers well.
