FORMER Chippenham Town striker Charlie Griffin has been given the all-clear to resume his playing career following a second serious head injury.
The Wycombe Wanderers front man, who is currently on loan at Forest Green Rovers, has been passed fit by a specialist in London and is targeting Saturday's visit of Crawley Town for his comeback.
The 27-year-old former Hardenhuish fans' favourite also has some encouraging words for Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech, who suffered a serious head injury at Reading at the weekend.
Cech is being treated at the neuro-surgical unit in Oxford's Radcliffe Infirmary, the same hospital where Griffin was treated for his first head injury. And Grffin says the Czech Republic goalkeeper is in good hands.
Griffin said: "Petr will be thinking the worst at the moment, but the people there are excellent and will do everything they can to help him."
