get well soon richie lad, not nice to see happen to anyone.

Re: Richard Owen : Sat Feb 20, 2010 12:52 am  

Awful thing to happen, those are the risks of this hard game. Felt for him, could hear him groaning in absolute pain in the background when Eddie & Stevo were talking.

Best wishes for a full recovery.

Re: Richard Owen : Sat Feb 20, 2010 1:33 am  

All the best and a speedy recovery Rich.

Re: Richard Owen : Sat Feb 20, 2010 2:22 am  

Words can't describe how totally gutted I am for Richard right now, I really hope it's not a season ending injury, and that he's able to bounce back soon. We will really miss him.

I'd just like to add that I was absolutely disgusted and insulted by the Bradford fans behind us whose reaction to the stoppage in play was "Well what was wrong with that?" before continuing to whinge along similar lines for the next several minutes before Richard was stretchered off the field. Show some respect for injured players you insensitive and arrogant idiots.

^ You'd get that everywhere Bonzo, if it happened at Cas to a Bradford player or whoever there'd be people oblivious to the injury and abuse the guy down. I'm sure as a whole the Bradford fans were very respectable.

Get well soon richard hope you make a speedy recovery.

Re: Richard Owen : Sat Feb 20, 2010 8:51 am  

let's all hope he has a good and speedy recovery, the game in this country has a great future with players like owen

I suffered a similar injury (from what I have seen) when I was 19. 6 weeks in plaster but back playing at amateur level in 12 weeks.

Hopefully Owen enjoys a similar recovery. All the best Cas

Yes. We were. As of course people saw from the standing ovation he got when he was finally stretchered off. Don't tar us all with the brush of a few muppets of the kind you see at every ground, including yours.
