Title: Tony Slater injured
Post by: RATTY on August 05, 2007, 11:52 PM

Such a fantastic weekend then I get a phone call about Tony Slater. He couldn't make MK this weekend as he needed to race a regional race to qualify for the brits.
I have been told he has dislocated his hip joint.

Absolutely gutted for you mate, get well soon

The good news is that nothing is broken

But he has got nerve and ligament damage and spent yesterday evening in the winchester hospital. He is getting around on crutches at the moment , but with his competitive streak he was probably racing other crutch victims in the hospital  ;D

Oh and he has a bad concussion as well.

He needs to heal quickly he has the national at the weekend , get well soon mate  :(

Saw the crash on Sunday and it looked a nasty one , especially as Tony was not moving for a while. Hope you get well soon mate, and we will see you at a track in the not too distant future.
