Defender declared fit

Blackburn Rovers, 18:23, May 9, 2012

Rovers boss Steve Kean says Gael Givet has recovered from his hamstring injury and is in contention to face Chelsea on Sunday.

The second half of Monday's Premier League clash against Wigan Athletic was delayed as Givet suffered an apparent further health scare.

The ex-Monaco man had been troubled with a heart problem several weeks ago and there was cause for concern when Kean emerged from the dressing room to report that Givet had complained of a similar issue during the break at Ewood Park.

Players from both sides were kept in the tunnel while Givet was seen to by paramedics and physios, but the action resumed shortly after the scheduled restart when it was revealed that he was in a stable condition and only suffering from a hamstring strain.

Givet later re-emerged to take his place alongside his teammates on the Rovers bench.

The whole episode was rather peculiar and Rovers fans are already speculating as to what may have actually taken place in the dressing room.

What the crap?

Interesting. A heart scare turns to a hamstring that rules him out of the game, then two days later he's fit again? How peculiar...

oh it is all becoming clear now and in my good old Poirot sense of deduction can reveal the true happenings of unrest in the corridors at Ewood.

As the players bum twitched listening to the candy floss dreams of the deluded one for the umpteenth time this season, a quick qwerp from our gaelic warrior transmitted in the direction of the deluded one "you have no idea no passion,no fight mon ami.... no heart!"

The deluded one being lost in his own world, not for the first time since his tenure, only hears want he wants to hear and recalling his own gaelic connection picks up only on the the'no heart' bit and this sets off a last orders bell in his head re the previous 'ticker 'problems' of the bearded one; at this precise moment our gaelic warrior bent over to pull up his socks inorder to keep his legs warm and prevent any potential injury , whereby on seeing this, the deluded one being of high integrity and compassion rushed over and tried to give him CPR.

Aghast at the impromptu 'man love' the bearded one responded with a 'Glasgee kiss' right in the mush of the deluded one which sent him sprawling through the changing room door just as the piemen where getting ready to advance out onto the pitch.

Whatever happened on Monday Gael was happy at training today, played full part in it, and certainly wasn't injured - only because I witnessed it - perhaps because he knows he has only one more game to play, and frankly it doesn't matter to him.
