From last weekend (apologies for the delay, been on holiday);
Dominic Iorfa - Ipswich Town - Played 72 minutes in a 1-0 win over Blues. Described as impressive by the club's Twitter feed and made a couple of his trademark barnstorming runs down the right
Lee Evans - Wigan Athletic - A successful start to life up north as his side beat EEL's MK Dons 1-0. It was actually Michael Jacobs with the assist but Evans impressed. EEL played the full game too.
Niall Ennis - Shrewsbury Town - Unused sub in a 1-0 win over Northampton
Duckens 'The Duck' Nazon - Coventry City - Came on as a sub after 86 minutes and notched the assist, a fine piece of footwork, to their final goal in a 3-0 win over Notts County.
Jon Flatt - Cheltenham Town - On the losing side in a 2-1 reverse at Morecambe.
Aaron Hayden and Aaron Simpson - Telford United - 90 minutes apiece and a clean sheet for the Telford two in a fine 1-0 win at York.
Gladon's season starts this weekend. Couldn't find anything on Carnat.
Gladon scored as Hercules beat Ajax. If the highlight I found were accurate it was a tidy finish after a near post run. Not linking them as were from some odd station and fired up on YouTube.

Well, I've been defending a lot of "bad" keeping lately, so...
What exactly is Onana meant to do there? If the ball is hit with pace at that range directly between his legs, what is it that he or any keeper is supposed to do about it?
I see a good cross, horribly static defending from the Ajax CB, and a good finish that more or less takes the keeper out of the equation.
It's not hit with any great pace, it goes under the keeper's body rather than through his legs. If he'd just stood still he probably could've kicked it away.
True but if you anticipate standing still, you dont make it as a keeper at any level. Stuff close to you within your frame is difficult as a keeper because you need to collaspe in on yourself rather than power out.
A round-up from the League and FL Cup games this past week.
Dominic Iorfa - Ipswich Town
Cup - A full game in a 2-0 win at Luton.
League - Another game and another win, this time a 2-1 at Oakwell. Seems to be getting involved a lot in the attacking play as we know he can.
Lee Evans - Wigan Athletic, League One
Cup - Left out of the squad as Wigan progressed to the 2nd round so either he has a knock or he's considered to important for the Coca Cola Cup.
League - Played a full game and smacked in a 30 yard screamer. Also put in a pearl of a cross for another goal in a 4-1 win over Bury.
Video here (Evans' contributions from around a minute into it)
Ethan Ebanks-Landell - MK Dons
Cup - A full two hours on the pitch for EEL but a clean sheet and some yummy post-match tofu as his team edged past Forest Green.
League - Another 90 minutes to follow up the mid-week marathon in a 1-0 reverse at Blackpool. Came closest to scoring for McDons.
Niall Ennis - Shrewsbury Town, League One
Cup - A big moment for Niall at the City Ground; his first professional start. Showed close control to edge into the box and win a penalty in a 2-1 defeat. Subbed on 83'.
League - Came on for the last few minutes and still managed to get a shot in. Shrews won 1-0 at Wimbledon.
Duckens 'The Duck' Nazon - Coventry City, League Two.
Cup - The Duck's impressive start continued, notching a goal to go with Saturday's assist. It was nicely taken too, a sharp first-time finish after the keeper fumbled a shot. Would it be worth a start on Saturday perhaps?
Goal build-up from 30 seconds;
League - Like Ennis, on for the last few minutes and squeezed in a shot that just whistled past the post. Cov went top with the victory, 2-0 at Grimsby.
Jon Flatt - Cheltenham Town, League Two
Cup - Involved in a seven goal thriller as his team won at Oxford. Initially saved a pen for one of the goals but the rebound was stabbed home
League - An impressive display apparently , producing three or four saves to keep a clean sheet in a 1-0 win over Crawley.
Aaron Simpson and Aaron Hayden - AFC Telford
League - Another 90 minutes for both on Saturday, this time in a 2-0 defeat to Salford. Followed up with another full game apiece in a 1-0 loss at Curzon Ashton. Edwards seems intent on giving them a sustained run in the first team.
Paul Gladon - Heracles
League - As mentioned above, the homecoming hero grabbed the first in a 2-1 win over Ajax. A fine goal it was too, running inside the defender and sweeping a first-time shot home.
[supergeekmode] I found Esbjerg's website and Carnat's been starting on the bench for them. He made his first sub appearance at the weekend [/supergeekmode]
