Eddie Howe

[Alex 37686]

I just saw he’s paid tribute to the NHS staff so scratch that last bit

He thanked the NHS in his statement. Our Eddie ain't no Tory.

I asked my lass and apparently it’s a severe chest infection. Caused by a viral or bacterial infection. Treatable with antibiotics.

He should make a full recovery. There’s a good chance he’s in private care and it might not have led to a hospitalisation normally and this is precautionary.

He did specifically thank the NHS in his statement mind. You would think club would have him in private care, but that said, a Dr acquaintance of mine told me awhile back that for some conditions the NHS is better than private as they have dedicated teams who deal with some things day to day, every day, whereas private tends to be "who's on the team today".

I'm sure Mad Dog and co. will hold down the fort in his absence. It's a wonderful bonus having a two man team like Howe-Tindall. In this situation Mad Dog basically can apply a "What Would Eddie Do" principle in the boss's absence and get it basically spot on every time. If the ManU performance is anything to go on we'll be absolutely okay in Howe's absence for another week or so.

 

Thank God it's you saying this. If it had've been Gemmill we'd be a week away from Tindall claiming to be the greatest manager in PL history and holding up a letter from Bruno apologising for shagging Tonali's lass.

I corrected myself before you did. You’re slipping

Aye, I noticed that. For someone the media portrays as being desperate to be in the limelight he seemed to be nervous and camera shy.

Private hospitals don't have an A&E, do they?

Not specifically.  They have 'urgent care'

My sister in law seems to catch pneumonia after every cold, covid or flu virus she gets - It's fucking awful like and I think she's had a couple of trips to hospital as a result but never a prolonged stay. She's recovered pretty quickly with antibiotics every time too. I think it flattens you for a few days mind, I reckon we'll be lucky to see Howe doing anything before season's end. But then again Howe is a very fit and healthy bloke for 47 so could be back at his tactics board in a week once he double doses his first lot of tablets.

Let's just hope Gemmil doesn't expect a speedy recovery or Howe might be the next name getting punned to fuck in the "Yes Gemmill" thread.

That's my concern too.

More like "is your private doctor in today or on the golf course? Because he won't want anyone else treating his patients and losing fees as a result."

My Leicester mate reckons Barnes is class and we got the best player when they sold Teilemans and Maddison all at the same time.

[Howmanheyman 37771]

Barnes is arguably the best finisher in the squad, the only question about him was/is his stamina and engine but you can't argue with that part of his game lately so he's obviously working on it.

I used to dread Barnes whenever we played them. When he's in the mood he's a right pain in the arse.

Eddie's been discharged evidently which is good news, but he must have had it bad to be kept in for a week 😔 Be surprised if we see him back before end of the season.

[Gemmill 52221]

CT's daughter took 4 weeks. No way Eddie is softer than the product of CT's loins. 

[aimaad22 4977]

Aye a couple of weeks of bedrest follows probably, he should rest till after the Ipswich game at least, Tindall should be able to handle that.

 

Time to cook up some ideas for the title charge next season Eddie

Must be really bad, my daughter didn’t even get admitted but was still in a very bad way for a few weeks til it started to go.

 

Either that or given his status they rolled out the red carpet!

 

Also the possibility that even if he did have it worse, they have drip fed him antibiotics and it may clear up quicker.

 

From my experience, the fitter and healthier people are, they ignore the symptoms more before seeking help, giving it time to really take hold.

 

Hopefully he want rush back and it’s credit to him that the ship can continue on a straight course without his presence.

 

Just hope the media and twitter fans don’t go overboard calling for his return if we come unstuck tomorrow.

 

Btw, gotta love 3 match weeks when we’re winning.

I had pneumonia a few years ago, no admittance either, just strong medication, large amounts of rest and quite frankly minimal monitoring from the Docs.

Took bloody ages to become ‘normal’ again.

Apart from most physical things (breathing, walking etc) I was ok, i.e. I could communicate and what have you.

We are all different though and something like pneumonia has a spectrum like any illness.

 

(edit) just to be 100% clear I am not in any way attempting to diminish how serious Eddie’s condition is. Hopefully I made that clear before this edit.

I'd imagine Eddie is in some level of private care and they may have gone for keeping him in in order to get him right that much quicker.

Otherwise you're leaving the self-confessed football obsessive, 12+ hour day working middle aged man to not say "ah yeah I'm alright" and get back to work.

Nope. Definitely all about you - and Eddie being soft. 🙂

I’m sure during commentary they said there was due to be an update about him after the game. Anyone know what it was?
