Another Six-Nine-Months Out For Holden

Stuart Holden’s injury nightmare continues with him facing yet another lengthy spell out due to his ongoing knee problems.

The midfielder last just 23-minutes against Everton in an U21 game last week in his latest attempted comeback from his most latest knee injury, sustained last summer playing for America.

Following an operation on injured knee ligaments he’ll now be out for anywhere between six and nine-months.

Bolton boss Dougie Freedman said: ‘Unfortunately, Stuart’s knee has gone. His surgeon has had a look and has deemed this to be the best course of action.

‘We’re all obviously very disappointed for Stuart, but he’s a warrior and a fighter and someone who knows exactly what he wants to achieve. Everyone at the football club is right behind him.’

It’s such a shame for Holden who has basically been plagued by leg and knee problems for some four-years now, he’ll want to come back from this latest setback and all will hope he can as well as support him but it’ll be a surprise if he does comeback this time.

Mr Ecky sends his best to the Vital Bolton community, he’s currently not well, he’ll be back as soon as possible and in the meantime, he’s got a staff writer to fill in for him.

If anyone has something to share in the meantime (this gives a genuine Bolton point of view from a Bolton fan!) feel free to fire an email through.
