cheron85 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 His loan locations keep getting worse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealhantsram Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Seems a bit disappointing for him to get a loan to league 2 after his apparently very successful Championship loan a couple of seasons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyPride Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I thought we'd signed some Dutch superstar called Jan Loan for a minute there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Wonder why Fatty Evans didn't get him for Mansfield, he was raving about him when he had him at Rotherham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 At least the lad will get some game time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StringerBell Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So he does still play for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustylee Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Seems odd that he didn't play in any of the u23 fixtures this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Loaned to the Championship to rave reviews a couple of years ago. Loaned to League Two now. And if Shackell goes as looks increasingly likely, it seems we're not interested in having him as a backup option. Given all that, it seems odd we took up that extra year's option on his contract (if I recall). In terms of increasing the value of our playing staff which we claim we want to do, we seem so poor compared to them down the road who have been forced to play youngsters for lack of anyone else. When they've done all right for a few games, they're hyped to high heaven and "valued" at many millions. I have heard that the game at the top level is so different from the lower leagues nowadays that some Premier League clubs wouldn't consider loaning their youngsters down into the lower leagues as it's deemed wrong for their education. We're in a funny position because our youngsters compete with Premier League youngsters, but have no route through into Premier League football. And perhaps it isn't grooming them properly for the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Only on loan until January so does that mean we will take any offer in January then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only 21 - Liverpool waited until Wisdom was 24 before deciding he wasn't going to make it in their first team - Might just be giving him time - And a loan move to a team where he could be the stand out player could be good for him? Finished mid-table last season so not another relegation fight to contend with? He will have had quite a battering on his previous loans Rampant speculation - Seem to have accidentally swallowed some optimistic outlook - Normal service to be resumed soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
