In four full seasons, he has played 48 league games... 12 a season !!!!!
Good player on his day, but overall financially a terrible signing, and need to just say 'thanks but move on'

I like Beardsley's wife who likes her eggs cooked in a very particular way.

Re: The Jack Hobbs Appreciation Thread

Was out with one of Hobbs' best mates last night to watch the football. Apparently that rumour that a surgeon affiliated with NFFC operated on his WRONG f***ing KNEE is completely true.

He then had to have the other knee operated on and had to go through physio for both legs. No wonder he's not the player he was.

This lad reckons he's going back to Lincoln, too.

If that's true he would surely be sueing the surgeon/their practice for everything they have?

That’s right up there with the old „Pilot shut down the wrong engine“ story.

Definitely failed the eye test, that's for sure

He knew something was wrong when the surgeon wouldn't remove his surgical mask after the operation and started the conversation with 'ok Spiderman, I've got some bad news...'

Re: The Jack Hobbs Appreciation Thread

When you have an operation they ask you numerous times what leg it is... they then draw a big f*** off black arrow on you that you cant scrub off afterwards as it makes you stitches sting.

Are you suggesting that Hobbs himself told the surgeon the wrong knee to operate on.

Im saying that at the nhs hospital i had my OP at it was checked 3 times by 3 different people, cant see why private would be different.

Re: The Jack Hobbs Appreciation Thread

My brother-in-law's Dad had one, and it wasn't right up until they went to take him away the surgeon came in, had a chat with him, and was talking about his leg pointing at his good leg, so he thought the surgeon was just kidding and said, 'you do know it's my right leg don't you' and the surgeon was being genuine...

So it definitely does happen, if the surgeon didn't double check it would have been a nightmare.

I can only assume people get mixed up between left leg for example means as they look at it, or the patient's left... Shouldn't happen, but I can see how it does.

Re: The Jack Hobbs Appreciation Thread

I don't about this for sure, but when ever I've had an op or people who I know have, they've usually marked the procedure sight including incision point etc before-hand. I though it was standrd practice because this should be a good opportunity to correct any mistakes.

Even did this whn I had the snip.

When I had keyhole on my right knee I was told to shave the whole leg and only the leg thaat was being oped on.

I know someone who had the wrong bollock lopped off and was left infertile as a result.

Though rare, it can happen.

That’s got to be a Court Case right there, hasn’t it?

Re: The Jack Hobbs Appreciation Thread

I wonder how much the NHS spends on compo

A mate of mine was a pro basketball player in the UK, due to fly out for NBA trials/picks/whatever it is they do over there. He broke his wrist during a game and went to Lincoln County to get it seen to.

Long story short, the fracture was in such a place that it could only be seen from the top if your hand was on its side - but the hospital never did that x-ray, they only did palm down and palm up. My mate ended up with arthritis in his wrist at the age of 21 and it ruined his bball career. He took them to court, he had NBA coaches fly over and say he'd have been top picks for all the big teams etc - he's been very coy about how much compo he got, but its over £300k as he bought his house cash AND got him and his mrs new BMW 4-series'.

Can't imagine he's the only bloke with a similar story.

Yep. The wife's a lawyer and deals with that sort of stuff on a daily basis.

Compensation is only ever paid when there has been a monumental cock up though where someone has been extremely professionally negligent.

It ain't cheap...

....They added that the estimated total liabilities, which is the cost if all current claims are successful, stands at £65bn...
