Merthyr's Clarke Recovering From Head Injury


Merthyr goalkeeper Cameron Clarke is recovering from a head injury he suffered yesterday at Kings Langley.

Clarke, a former Hereford United youth team keeper, only returned to play for Merthyr last month.

This from Merthyr FC:

Goalkeeper Cameron Clarke is recovering after being taken to hospital following a head injury at Kings Langley yesterday.
Cameron was involved in a collision and was briefly knocked unconscious.  Paramedics attended the scene quickly and moved Cameron to Watford Hospital.
Cameron underwent a CT scan and the results came back as normal, but the hospital wanted to carry out a MRI scan to be safe. The scan will hopefully be carried out today, and hopefully Cameron will be able to return home when the results are received.  Cameron was given strong painkillers early hours of this morning which has enabled him to get some sleep, but he is still in some discomfort.
Cameron would like to thank everyone at Kings Langley football club, paramedics and hospital staff for their help.  He would also like to thank everyone for the messages they have sent him on social media and by text.
Manager Gavin Williams would also like to thank Kings Langley for their help dealing with the injury, and for the kind gesture made to the players by Kings Langley officials on the coach to provide them with money to buy refreshments for the journey home.
