Former academy player Jonathan Gjoshe at Scunthorpe United.
In slightly more disturbing news it appears that Jonathan Gjoshe was injured, not life-threateningly during the LNER train attack.
Glad to hear he's OK but how many clubs has he played for? He's only a youngster. There are loads of clubs all over social media today wishing him all the best as a former player.

Seems very strange he has been allowed to go to Epsom & Ewell when we could only name 4 subs without him on Sat. Also I thought our chairman promised us more regular updates,but not had one for a while.Now would be a great time to have one with an injury crisis and the team sliding down the league quickly cause of it.Having said that being 16th after 14 games is alot better than I expected,and as a guess most other people.I feel so sorry for our manager having 8 of our players out at the time,especially when most of them would start every game when fit

I have a lot of sympathy for the Manager too, but as well as the injury crisis there are so many games where we look half decent for the first 10-15 mins and by then are sussed out, the opposition having the upper hand from thereon in.
You also have to say that signing injury prone players (presumably not cheap ones either) was a massive gamble that isn't paying off so far. It could also be argued that the club's current "less than open" communication about injuries etc is hardly helping matters in terms of trying to keep supporters onside.
Can't see us getting much out of the Chelmsford or Horsham league games, following which we could be near the relegation zone, and then the Leatherhead Trophy game could be a real banana skin. I hope I'm wrong.

Horsham will be a very difficult game. They play some fantastic football

I think any game is a difficult one for us right now.
