Tate focused on getting back in swing of things soon
ALAN Tate has targeted a Christmas return to action after speaking for the first time about the golf buggy crash which left him with a broken leg.Tate was ruled out for up to six months by Swansea City’s medical staff after fracturing his tibia in an accident at Gower Golf Club two and a half weeks ago.
Swansea’s vice-captain has revealed how he initially tried to walk following the incident, and suggested he would be okay now had he not tried to bail out of the buggy.The injury, comfortably the most serious of Tate’s career, is a cruel blow for a player who has put in the hard yards in his bid to earn a crack at the Premier League.
But Tate, who left hospital yesterday after a fortnight under close supervision, insists he is already looking forward to his comeback game.
“I’m not feeling sorry for myself or anything like that because that’s when you start suffering,” he says.”I feel a bit unlucky for this to happen this season, but I’ve got good people around me and all I’m thinking about is getting back playing again.
Tate had originally been released from hospital soon after his initial treatment, but he went back in because of fears that he might do further damage to his leg with young son Brodey and the family dog running around at home.
The plaster has been off a couple of times, and the leg is feeling stronger already.An early morning round of golf three Sundays ago all went wrong on Gower’s 12th hole, when the buggy carrying Tate and a mate started skidding down a hill.
