der Berliner 3,231 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Didn't look good and does not make good reading either ... Scotland keeper Allan McGregor set to miss rest of reason after suffering 'car crash-like injury' in pitch collision SCOTLAND goalie Allan McGregor is expected to stay in hospital for some time after suffering a kidney injury mostly seen in car crash victims. Hull City keeper Greegs had a sickening collision with West Ham’s Mohamed Diame as his club lost 2-1 on Wednesday. McGregor, 32, was sent off but was immediately rushed to hospital with a suspected contusion to his kidney. Fiancee Leah Shevlin was believed to be at his bedside last night. A City source said: “He is in a bad way. I think it is unlikely he will play again this season. “The injury is extremely painful. We are not expecting him out of hospital any time soon. “He has already been assessed by doctors but we can’t say anything more at this time.” McGregor, capped 31 times for Scotland, was treated on the field and appeared to be in severe pain as he was led off. After the match at Upton Park, Hull boss Steve Bruce said: “He’s in a bad way. He’s got kidney damage. “The specialist is on his way to see him. He has a contusion of his kidney, which we are hoping is not ruptured.” A contusion to the kidney – severe bruising – normally comes as a result of a lower back injury. It is mostly seen as a result of road crashes. It causes severe pain and can cause nausea, vomiting, blood in the urine and muscle spasms in the back. In simple cases, the patient is monitored for a few days. The kidney usually heals on its own within a week or so. In the aftermath of the incident, Leah tweeted: “He’s getting taken to hospital, I’ll let you know how he is.” Her followers expressed concern. And a message from Greegs’s former club Rangers said: “Hope @therealgreegsy1 is OK. Wish him speedy recovery from all at @Rangers.” The extent of McGregor’s injury is not expected to be released until Bruce faces the media today. Sky Sports News @SkySportsNews 32 Min.

Juancornetto 1 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I don't expect him to be at Hull next season, he'll get a big move if he recovers from this well enough. All the best Shagger. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I hate what they all did but we need someone of his ilk back in goals when we are in the SPL. Cammy Bell is not good enough to continue our fine succession of excellent keepers i.e. Woods, Goram, Klos, McGregor. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
