Here is an article from yesterday about Harry Tyrer from the Gazette including a video of an interview. Nothing too new there but he speaks well and it's a good advert for the benefits of the loan system when it works out well. Have copied a few extracts below...

A full 90 minutes for Harrison Armstrong (despite him getting an early yellow) as Derby beat Coventry 2-0. The verdict from the Derbyshire Telegraph: "Got stuck in and the on-loan Everton midfielder played forward when he could. May be just a teenager but doesn't play like one. 7.5/10". A full...

This thread needs bumping. Thanks for posting.

Late loan round up this time - been on a weekend break in Seville. As pointed out above, Harrison Armstrong put in a man of the match performance as Derby beat Blackburn 2-1. He was taken off after 87 minutes. Derby still 3 points from safety. The verdict from the Derbyshire Telegraph: "a sound...

It's been raining all weekend. Had a great time though. Finished 1-0 to Betis. Las Palmas had a player sent off and Sandro was taken off on 70 minutes.

In Seville for the weekend. Currently watching Sandro (no.19) playing for Las Palmas against Betis. He has been running around a lot to no effect. 0-0 at the moment.

Terrific documentary here

A clean sheet for Harry Tyrer tonight as Blackpool drew 0-0 at home to Peterborough. 7/10 from the Gazette, "made one great save in the first half from (ex Everton trialist) Mothersillie. Solid again to deny Edun after the break". A shut out too for Billy Crellin whose Accrington beat Milton...

But will the pitch fit.....? (Only half joking. Not sure about RL pitch sizes)

'Francis' on the back of his shirt...

Mason Holgate seems now to be permanently consigned to the bench. Didn't get on today as WBA drew 1-1 at Leeds. Finally a start for Harrison Armstrong for Derby at Boro. It was scoreless when he went off on 76 minutes. Boro took the lead 4 minutes later and ran out 1-0 winners. Derby now rock...

Great consistency there from the club..

On "Mr Drone"'s video of the test event, it looked like he and his 3 Kopite mates had to show the tickets on his phone at the main gate but they weren't scanned at that point. They were then scanned properly on entering the stadium itself.

I am due back in Liverpool this weekend and will certainly sit down and watch this with my dad (now 94). Hopefully it should spark some great memories.

Only a couple of loanees in action this midweek. Billy Crellin got a rare clean sheet yesterday in Accrington's 1-0 win at Tranmere. They are 20th but clear of the relegation zone. Another 90 minutes tonight for Eli Campbell whose Ross County lost 1-0 a St Johnstone.
