Rogers info: http://www.leeds.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=279501 Shows he started off well with some nice plays and then a weird injury: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL8y9VTD630"]Leeds United 4 v 1 Peterborough - Extended highlights - YouTube[/ame]
Rogers has got a crack in the bone in his ankle. http://www.leedsunited.com/news/20120420/odeas-days-at-leeds-are-done-boss_2247585_2741976 Not sure how long that'll keep him out for, hopefully he'll be able to play some pre season friendlies in a couple of months time.
Best wishes, for a speedy recovery, Robbie. We look forward to seeing you next season with a full preseason at Leeds under your belt.

Leeds ended the season 14th place. Due to the injury problems, Rogers played just 42 minutes (4 games including 1 start).
Warnock talking about injured players including Rogers. http://www.leedsunited.com/news/20120503/leigh-has-op-trios-recovery-road_2247585_2758389
Its good to see he is fit and training again. I noticed on his twitter and per Ives he played in a charity friendly today as well.
Big problems at Leeds. They've missed out on Warnocks top targets due to a lack of funds. Warnock is widely expected to be named Nottingham Forest manager once Forest's takeover is finalised.
Leeds is going to struggle going up further until Bates sells. He's a very fiscally conservative guy, who's looking to turn a profit on Leeds, just like he did Chelsea. EPL is the aim, but he can make a killing on being in the npower too.
Colin took Palace to the edge of the playoffs and announced it would be his last job. Then the money ran out so he ran across London to QPR. Colin goes wherever his career prospects are best, as is his right. Forest will have money to spend, a big fanbase, great history and are primed for a return to the PL.
Robbie started in Leeds first preseason game today against Farsley and scored a goal. Hopefully more good things to come. Sounds like he started with a strong first team squad.
It appears Leeds used a strong side with a number of regular starters. I hope this means Rogers is in contention to be a regular this season. http://www.falmouthpacket.co.uk/spo...t_Tavistock_in_pre_season_tour_of_South_West/
