"Surgery will take place once the initial inflammation has settled", says club medical chief Neil Greig.

I had the same Andy. Apparently as the good Dr will attest the knee is enclosed in a ball of fluid and you rip the wall out so all the fluid comes out, they have to let that repair so they can fill the knee with gunk before doing keyhole stuff to repair (as I understood it when I asked my surgeon why he couldn't do it all at once with multiple ligament tears).

At least he's getting 10 grand a week watching Trisha unlike us peasants!

 Reminds me of the friend of Pontius Pilate in Life of Brian, Biggus Dickus.

 Now was she called Incontinentia Buttocks or is that an urban myth?  And of course we had Kenneth Williams as Julius Ceasar in Carry on Cleo with the great one-liner, "Infamy! Infamy!  They've all got it in for me!"

Some surgeons will do immediate repairs especially in elite athletes but its more common to wait for the knee to settle a bit.

I've just looked up an outcome study and the long term results are about the same for immediate repair and delayed.

Sorry that you had such a severe injury Exeter...I remember diagnosing it from the history you gave and interestingly I think you heard the characteristic snap as the ligament tore.
