Story
Craig Arnott has been a player for WGC FC for several years now and is well loved by all at the club.
On Wednesday 21 September, we hosted 61FC in the League Challenge Trophy when Craig was seriously injured during the game. He was brought off and was taken to hospital where it was discovered that he had snapped all the ligaments in his shoulder, and his Collarbone and Scapula which should be connected are now not. The two bones that act as one have come free so the shoulder is a complete mess. Craig attended a specialist today who has requested he be seen by two more specialists but that he should 95% expect to have to have surgery.
Craig is self-employed so not only will this affect the rest of the season's football, but he will be unable to work.
So, we are looking to support him in the best way possible by helping him financially.
PLEASE, dig deep and donate to this worthy cause and lets at least try and take away some of the pressure Craig must be feeling right now.
THANK YOU!

8 years agoUPDATE ON CRAIG Today, Craig went to see another specialist who has confirmed that he will need surgery on his shoulder and will be unable to work for a minimum of 3 months and will miss, at the least, the rest of the season. He goes into hospital tomorrow (Thursday).Craig has shattered his AC joint. This is the joint formed between the clavicle (collarbone) and the acromion (the tip of the shoulder blade).So a massive thank you to those who have already donated.
