Loan Watch 2023/2024

[Tony Towner]

Need to bring those bottom 4 back next month. Griffiths was on the fringes of the first team in the Summer, which probably says more about us than him, but to go from that to not even being able to make a poor Walsall teams bench is some drop

When he came on in the League cup against Blackpool reserves he looked horrifically out of his depth. Obviously could have been nerves, trying to impress etc. but he looked like a soccer aid player

Chem Campbell playing to the left of a midfield 3 today against Orient. Had a couple of decent efforts on goal but not really been able to get into the game. Charlton have been very good mind

I always thought that about him at u21 level. Bags of ability but sometimes could drift / the game would pass him by a bit

Forgive me, Moulden is the keeper?? And he has five assists?

He is - bonkers

Definitely a clear tactic of Rochdale to leave players up to hit on the break. Dece from Moulden!

If only Moulden had been in goal when Hwang was on his own on the half way line..

The weird thing is that when he first signed, Sa was really good at that kind of ball. Aimed for and reached Adama loads (though it often came to nowt as Adama is Adama). Assist for Raul at Southampton.

Then after a few months his legs turned into rubber and now he kicks like a slightly better Lonergan.

A festive round-up:

Luke Cundle - Plymouth Argyle, Championship

Played 68 minutes of Plymouth's 3-3 draw vs Blues, then came on as sub at around the same time in their 2-2 draw at Cardiff and played a part in the equaliser.

Dexter Lembikisa - Rotherham United, Championship

Played a full game ina 3-0 loss at Leicester then 66 minutes of a 1-0 home win vs Boro. Rotherham still 9 points from safety.

Ki-Jana Hoever - Stoke City, Championship

Played two full games. The first in a 0-0 draw at home to Millwall at RB, in which he had a couple of decent efforts on goal, then he switched to LB for the 3-1 win at Blues.

Chem Campbell - Charlton Athletic, League One

Played 66 minutes of a 1-1 draw at home to Burton, then 76 minutes in a 1-0 defeat at Orient, both in an attacking midfield role.

Louie Moulden - Rochdale, The National League

Kept a clean sheet in a 2-0 win vs Fylde after getting another assist in a 2-2 draw previously.

On as sub: Olly Tipton came on as a sub with 25 minutes to go of Notts County's 3-0 win over Doncaster after being an unused sub in a loss at Stockport.

Not in squad: Pond, Griffiths, Roberts.

No game: Corbeanu, Bolla, Podence, Chiquinho.

Looks like the Fabio deal's done. Added to the OP.

Rangers don’t have a buying option, but hopefully he plays and scores goals and we’ll see where we’re at in the summer.

Translated: Score some goals so someone wants to buy you and before Jeff makes himself the DoF again..

They use a picture of him with 29 rather than 9 interestingly, or not.

£35m for that joke of a footballer.

Jeff Shi shouldn't be anywhere near our club.

Wages covered too. Excellent news

That's surprising tbh.

At the risk of derailing the thread, how is it that Celtic and Rangers have so much more money in the bank than the rest of Scottish football put together?

They’ve got fans.

They've had a massive monopoly between them for the Champions League cash forever probably helps.

Plus as Tredman says they get 50k people turn up every other week. Then there's the massive Irish following for Celtic which probably makes them a fortune in merchandising.
