During the 03/04 season, Trundle was side-lined for almost three and a half months with a number of different injuries, with Brian Flynn being blamed for his poor training schedules. However, Trundle has played down any fears of a long-term layoff by stating that he has merely suffered a routine training ground injury and will probably feature in next Tuesday's friendly clash at Barry Town.
Trundle joins defender Izzy Iriekpen on the Swans injury list after the ex-West Ham defender broke down just hours into pre-season. Iriekpen has since been informed that he will have to undergo surgery on a bony growth in his ankle that is likely to force him out of action for at least six weeks.
