Yes, I believe he is undergoing surgery as we speak.

I heard earlier on radio 5 when they were interviewing a specialist that there is even a possibility of it being career ending. Hopefully that was just speculation and not based exactly on Chech's actual condition though.

Cech has been warned a return to action too soon after an operation on his fractured skull could prove fatal.

The stark warning comes from Peter Hamlyn, consultant neuro-surgeon and director for centre of sports and exercise medicine at St Bartholomew's Hospital in London, writing in the Daily Telegraph.

Hamlyn wrote: "If Petr Cech returns too soon from his head injury, the result could be fatal.

"He risks what is known as 'second impact syndrome'. This happens when a second blow causes swelling to the brain before it has recovered fully from an earlier injury. It is a situation that could prove fatal, even if the first blow is deemed not to be serious.

"With that in mind, I would think Cech is likely to be out for at least six months.

"That is about the length of time it takes for stout bone healing to take place. If the brain underlying the fracture has been greatly injured, his time out may be even longer.

"Luckily for him, skull fractures are not normally associated with severe injuries to the brain, which means we can anticipate Cech making a full recovery."

Sounds Nasty

Cech's dad says he will be back playing in 1 year. Quite sad to see him go for 1 year if it happens. I hope he does full recovery in 6 months.

Annyways... CHARLTON lost again and this time to Fullham. They have lost 7 out of 8 games now!

One interesting thought though...none of the poll's top goalscorers do feature in the real list:

Scorer Goals

Andrew Johnson 6

Nwankwo Kanu 6

Darren Bent 5

Didier Drogba 5

Bobby Zamora 5

Tim Cahill 4

Frank Lampard 4

Benni McCarthy 4

Ole Gunnar Solskj?r 4

Van Nistelrooy is on it because when I made it he was still at Man Utd. Maybe some mod can change it?

You made it? :blink: :no:

Sorry mate but isn't the topic started by me? :)

And the last line of the topic clearly states that:

As for the poll, I know Ruud van Nistelrooy's position in Manchester United is not certain, IF he leaves the votes will goto whoever will replace him.

So Ruud was included in the poll...and as nobody replaced him at United so maybe those votes are for Saha :p

But anyways the mods can change that. :whistle:

As for the week's games. Good performance from United & Arsenal. Liverpool played very bad. Chelsea won with Shevchenko finally scoring his first premiership goal :p

Jermain Defoe's biting incident :| And Mascherano's reaction were even more suprising!!! :blink:

Oh yeah sorry. I thought I had made it. I misteaked it for the Champions League one I made.

If anybody likes to watch highlights of the match just try and watch them on sky sports at night. MOTD is awfull for highlights. They will always favor the bigger teams. And they won't spend much talking on the smaller teams

That was what ITV did as well. Though the BBC isn't as bad. They always show Arsenal through the middle though :(

great win for arsenal, and whys nistrooy on the poll

Poll was created by author before Ruud van Nistelrooy went to Madrid.

They don't stick Arsenal on first.

Time they do it's way past my bedtime and I am falling asleep.

The Carling Cup higlights on ITV were awesome when they said "And (team) didn't give up against Newcastle, and who blames them when you have Titus Bramble in defence?" It was something like that! Haha.

Sadly i missed the Carling Cup but saw a few clips online of the match.

Even thou Newcastle got Titus Bramble they still won.

The pitch was bloody awfull from what i saw, it was to slippy and clumpy. You could pass the ball and then it would just stop because of the mud. And you could be like 10 yards from someone you could just run and slide in to them.

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
