Luke Chadwick has undergone a minor operation on the knee injury he picked up on his Norwich City debut. The winger, who joined on loan from Stoke City last week, put his new side ahead in Sunday's East Anglian derby at Ipswich Town. But he was forced off in the closing stages after colliding with the advertising hoardings and was taken to hospital for treatment. Chadwick suffered a deep gash to his knee, with The Canaries admitting the player was fortunate not to be seriously injured, although it is unclear when he will be fit to return. "He had surgery done on his knee to clean it up," physio Neal Reynolds told the club's official website. "He's had a really nasty gash on it. It was very deep and long. "If it had been three inches lower it could have been much more serious." Chadwick also appeared to hurt his shoulder in the incident, but Reynolds was quick to play down a second injury problem. He added: "If it was dislocated, it went back in very quickly - he put it back in himself."
read the last few lines Chadwick also appeared to hurt his shoulder in the incident, but Reynolds was quick to play down a second injury problem. He added: "If it was dislocated, it went back in very quickly - he put it back in himself." </p> Sounds like he hurt his shoulder and his knee</p>
easily done i'd already read it on the BBC site and not noticed anything about his shoulder. it was only when i read it again after reading your post that i spotted it.
its always "if it was x inches lower/higher it would have" if it was 3 foot higher he would have caved his skull in. Doh!
