I saw fans at games with broken bones still manage to PAY to watch useless nontriers get our club relegated and have to suffer agitating their injuries getting to and from games. First injury I can remember MacDonald picking up, he seems to have a good knack of nursing himself gently through games.
Regardless of my opinion about the guys ability, i've got a lot of respect for him doing that. How many others, at any level of football, would have carried on with a snapped arm?
He was fouled and fell down. I'm sure he fell on his arm. He had treatment and carried on until substituted quite a few minutes later. To be fair to him [which I'm sure some people won't] he did not make a big thing off it but clearly was in pain when he came off.
Yeah, Just Me, it was clear he was in a lot of pain but didn't want to come off at the time.
I was sickened by the comments of some clown near where I sit that he hoped it was nothing trivial. Fair enough, KMac isn't everyone's cup of tea but to be so unsympathetic to someone who has clearly suffered a genuine injury is cr@p.

I once played more or less a full game for Midland Bank 7th XI in 1982 with a fractured arm, having fallen heavily in the opening minutes. That got me a fortnight off work just before my banking exams, but I still failed them...
What a brave wee lamb "woor Kev" is. I dislocated my knee playing a game of 7's at the Matt Busby, i'd have played on except my left knee cap was popping out the side of my leg
Can't we do the Mel Gibson / Rene Russo "Lethal Weapon 3" scar comparisons thread Chris, as I don't have any footie related scars? I do, however, have a nice one from cooking that most dangerous of fish, the Rainbow Trout!!
