Quoted from moosey_club
From memory..

Matt - season long loan, scored THE vital goal....indifferent all season
Kean - keeper brought in for cover who looked very shakey and then "got injured" and was never seen again
Wilkes - Looked bright....but injury interfered
Jackson - scored a goal...then injured
Vernam - looked a very positive player, promising ..but again injury interfered
DJ - season long (? honestly cant remember) ..hit and miss form
Suliman - looked too young and inexperienced for me in reality and looked shaky as a result...if he had been given more of a chance who knows but didnt stamp his authority when he was given a glimpse of a shirt.

the best looking options on this seasons loan front have all been scuppered by injury, the rest havnt been that succesful in truth. We need a good core squad of our own in for next season with a sprinkling of high end loan talent to bolster where required..the ridiculous loan approach of Slade was pretty much an unmitigated flop.


Nowt you can do about injuries but all those loaness and they never really nailed down a spot in the side.I like the try before you buy for older players years ago we did it with Wayne Burnett and Livvo and when you sign youngsters it should be with a commitment to play them if they are deemed good enough Logan,Patterson,Pulis,Til,Townsend,Henderson.My point is if we could get 2-3 players of that calibre added to a small but quality squad we could really get in amongst things top end.The habit of squandering a place in the squad on mediocre junk must stop and I think MJ might well be the man to get the best out of the loan markets.

I see what you did there.  

Also, you have a PM


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
