I'll certainly try to do that. In Scully's case : Scully: A Perfect Fit - News - Portsmouth (portsmouthfc.co.uk)

Scully is probably out of action for the rest of 2023, following surgery for a meniscus tear in his knee.

Didn't he miss a lot of football in his final season for Lincoln with knee issues. Had to get injections and avoid training to make it through matches at one stage.

They tried an injection at Pompey too, but it didn't work......

According to 'The News' (Portsmouth) Scully's future at Pompey, and that of N. Ireland international Gavin Whyte, are uncertain following the club's promotion to the Championship. While Whyte made 33 appearances in 2023/24, Scully made only 9 and has only 12 months left on his contract. Scully really hasn't maintained the form he showed at Lincoln City.

A few years ago we were short enough on options that Scully doing well in League 1 made him a genuine contender for a squad place. Now, even if he gets himself injury free and back to that form, he'll be miles off a squad place because others have improved/emerged.
