Tibia is the main bone in the leg.
Hope it not a bad break, end of his season for sure.

Awful news.
Unbelievable.
I would have thought your femur (largest bone in the body) would have been the main bone in the leg, but hey, who's here to give an anatomy lesson??

Disaster anyway. I thought Cunningham looked superb in the friendly against Norway. Really gutted for him that he'll be out for the rest of the season.
Ed. by Shane Duffy! Amazing bad luck for us as an international side in the last few years.
That's right, I mean of the main bone of the lower leg, the other smaller one is like the ankle bone, I know because I broke my ankle bone a while back, I think I might have fractured the tibia too (not sure). I be surprised if the smaller bone was not broken as well, but what would I know.
I just saw it on The Football League Show, Gregg came flying in, it would be hard to blame the other guy, it was a 50/50 ball.
Pretty hard to see exactly what happened at that speed, just a painful looking clash of legs.
Looking on the bright side, going around on crutches is good for your upper body strength.
I wish him a speedy recovery.
He wasn't that good to begin with, not much of a loss. Kilbane should be able to cover the LB spot for another couple of years at least.

Kilbane is a hero to me, but you must be having a laugh?
Kilbane has just signed for Huddersfield Town in League One on loan, and he will be playing in centre-mid for them filling in for some injured fella. You really think he'd be a better option than a fit Cunningham? Cunningham has won a lot of praise this season from Eriksson and Leicester fans.
You'd last about 30 seconds as a football scout!

Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
You guys need to turn up your sarcasm meter...
Such a pity for Cunningham. I wonder if Kevin Kilbane will now target 200 caps. I'm sure Trapattoni will continue to pick him even if he is playing in the Ryman Premier Division.

4 months according to Sven.
I missed this bit of injury new or else I heard something but was afraid to open up the thread to find out the extent.
By all accounts he was doing very at Leicester, keeping his place ahead of a decent experienced defender in Berner.
One report said it was a compound fracture. Sven says 4 months out? that's a blessed relief, if he's telling it as it is.
I expected worse tbh so that's good to hear.
