Quoted from diehardmariner
Footballers talk, managers talk, loan managers talk...has the legacy of the last six months to a year created a problem where we're now known as a bad club to send players on loan too?  I'd point to the success of Benson and Glennon here, but if Burnley viewed their spell here as so beneficial then wouldn't they have offered further fringe players to Holloway in the summer?


Reputation!

When Ollie first come here, Ollie had a reputation that other Managers liked, so to have the chance of one of their youngsters to play under him would be a no brainer for them. Hence the successful loans that we had last season.

Sadly, after losing his mind over the whole lockdown episode, he seemed to lose all clues as to which players were any good, or not, as was the case in many of the signings.

It seems like once Ollie departed, all of the loan teams wanted their players back, enhancing the idea I mentioned above. In their eyes, it was Ollie or no one.

They all went back to their clubs better players than when they arrived.

Unfortunately it was at darts not football.

Josh Magennis was crap for us. Just saying.

Plenty of others too, then went on to have decent careers.

A excrement loan spell doesn’t mean they won’t go on to have a decent career, equally, just because they do go on to a decent career doesn’t mean we can’t say it was a excrement loan spell.

Taylor was bottom, not the worst but not the best. Blame what you like but that’s as it was. Clubs may have called loan players back but then if that’s just becauee hollow head left then you’d question their judgement of such a fraud...

There’s numerous reasons for a good or bad loan spell. We could wax lyrical all night about it.

Another player that will be forgotten and disappear in to the past...

Wasn't utterly terrible for usually very quiet and anonymous.tidy player but the games simply passed him by with rarely making any kind of impact.
