He probably wouldn't have been playing at our level if it wasn't for his previous injuries. Real shame for him, always seemed like a nice lad

Quoted from louth_in_the_south
Hope he had a good insurance policy cos I reckon he'll have to cash it in . 3 acl injuries by 24 sounds terminal to me


Not confirmed it is his ACL yet, but you're right - one is bad news, but 3 before you're 25 is really terrible for a pro. It's such a horrible injury, and is nearly always accompanied by other knee damage at the same time - meniscus/tendon tears and joint surface fractures. I was 'lucky' to suffer my injury at age 38 and it's ended my participation in football, which I was able to accept philosphically I guess. This is Coulson's living, and he's only in his early 20's. I'd have been absolutely heartbroken. What he does have on his side is a good natural recovery due to his young age and access to excellent surgeons and daily physiotherapy. I hope he has only suffered an uncomplicated injury and can come back for next season.

Sad news. Decent pro.

Can't quite believe i'm saying this after the first month of the season but I think, everything into perspective, Colbeck is actually a better fit for us than Coulson. Very much a similar type of player (Coulson probably likely to chip in more) but for the presumably smaller salary and more proven fitness record it was a semi-shrewd bit of business.

His first bad injury robbed him of most of the pace he had as a youngster, god knows what this will do, get well soon lad!

if he had an acl replacement it would be stronger than his original so it is very difficult to damage it twice.

Gutted for him but excrement like this happens. Hope he's mentally in the right place to play again.

Always gave his best for Town, that's all I ask.

Hope the injury isn't as bad as it sounds. If it's his ACL for the third time, let's hope he can come back the same player.

Echo most of the other sentiments...hard luck for Coulson because he seemed to have taken to playing with York at their higher level in his stride

Hope he gets over this and makes a full recovery...from what others have said though it might be unlikely
