Anyway, best wishes and good luck to the guy!!! eta: it is recoverable, our own Craig Watson did his knee in last season after two previous ACL injuries and was out for the rest of the season but came back for the start of this, but I suppose it comes down to the extent of the damage!!!

Vaughan, being 23 at least has age on his side. The guy should be playing in the premiership. It's highly unlikely he will ever fulfill the promise he has shown unfortunately but even after two he came back and looked good enough to be playing at a higher level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson is less than a year older than Vaughan. I was just going to post earlier about what stage do players with these recurring injuries just pack fitba in, forgetting that there's a player on our books that's done this same thing and recovered. Good luck to Lewis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFFC1938 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Terrible news regarding Vaughan! The lad must be devastated! How unlucky can a player get? No doubt that classless p***k of an Arbroath fan will be fair chuffed with himself! Regardless of what team you support you have to feel for Vaughan and I wish him all the best in his recovery. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to Lewis. Hopefully they can both get back to the level they were at. I doubt anyone would wish someone's career away, unless your an arbroath fan obviously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should mention that as Watson’s last injury happened at Arbroath and he was booed and subjected to some awful abuse as he was stretchered off, so much so that the Arbroath Chairman had to come out and make a statement slamming the fans that did so!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says alot when our immediate rivals this season can send well wishes etc but a teams fan(s) who we have no history with can be absolute p***ks about it. Just scummy behaviour!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatdoug1938 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just to echo the thoughts of my fellow EF fans. Genuinely gutted for the boy, horrendous run of serious injuries and a huge blow for an extremely talented, classy young man. Hope he can somehow come back from it but looks tough. Only positive I can take is that at least he won't score against us again as usual but really it's a blow for him, Raith and the league losing a player of his talent.All the best Lewis 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamA Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Genuinely saddened to hear that, no player deserves to have such serious injuries. Hope he makes a full recovery as he would be a sad loss to the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Hope Lewis Vaughan gets through this, gets back playing and gets a bit of luck for once when he is back fit. [emoji4] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meathead Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Gutted for Vaughan. One of my favourite opposition players to watch over the past few years, even in the midst of a title race. Hope he comes out the other side again and Raith do the business this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Gutted. Incredibly nice guy, loves the club and is a fantastic player. Absolutely awful. Puts a right fucker of a spanner in our season too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchan30 Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Such a shame for vaughan. Each time he has done it, had just been as he has looked back to his best. Hopefully he will recover physically and mentally from this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
