Hull also did ok in those games. I am sure he is only partially fit so will be introduced slowly but surely. 


Yeah there's been other games where he didn't come off the bench and Rosenior has said afterwards he wasn't fit enough to come on.

It's a shame that fitness is going to plague his career forever as Rosenior was starting to get something out of Connolly.

Not having a go at him but he's been partially fit for about 5yrs now.


The concussion and should injury from that challenge  few weeks ago was hardly his fault though! His long term / reoccurring injury is usually foot/ankle related.

Hes on the bench as an impact sub at the moment, they've won their last 3 games 2-1. You dont need to bring on a striker when trying to hold onto a lead. 

The one game he was brought on for final 20 minutes was where they were losing and chasing the game 1-0.

Hes still their top scorer with 8 goals this season, I'm sure they'd love him fit and available to start every game and so would we.

Back to the LOI with him. 30 goals a season at Rovers.


He would probably be a Ballon D'Or nominee in the LOI

Looking at 3 to 6 weeks out.

“It's a minimum of three weeks (out). I can only laugh at the moment, that’s the only way I can deal with negative news,” said Hull City boss Liam Rosenior, after Connolly left the field last week following a shuddering collision with Canaries ‘keeper Angus Gunn early in the first-half.

“He is looking at between three and six weeks (out). Hopefully it's more on the three side. We have had his shoulder assessed and he’ll need more assessment in three weeks.

“I did the same injury in my shoulder. It’s his AC joint, he has twinged the ligament and that can be a really, really painful one. So we have to make sure he gets his rehab right, on top of the fact that he is still showing real symptoms of concussion as well.”

That's an outrageous decision by the ref. Completely poleaxed Connolly.
Any chance that can be looked again?

Did you give the keeper a contract 


No Kenneth,  I have seen this movie before that's all.

Celebrating an Irish player getting poleaxed, classy as ever.
We're decent enough..

Crazy decision. 
Yep - referee amazingly only booked him but a VAR review got him sent off.

Officials must have a cheeky bet on Norwich. Giannoulis should have got a straight red for an elbow to the face. Ref gave a yellow but the linesman who was right next to it flagged for a throw in. Didn't even think it was a foul.

Concussion and shoulder injury for Connolly.
