Players out on loan 2023/24

[Eggs]

Lewis Warrington came on for the last 10 minutes for Plymouth with the score 1-1 but our man Che Adams scored for Soton in added time to give them a 2-1 win. Plymouth drop to 11th.

A start and 61 minutes for Stanley Mills for Oxford United who were already winning 2-0 when he went off. Oxford went on to get a 3-1 win v Barnsley away. Oxford are now 4th.

Reece Welch not in the squad for Forest Green who continue to struggle losing 3-0 at home to Newport. Forest Green currently 22nd.

As pointed out above, Harry Tyrer conceded an equaliser in added time for Chesterfield at home to Oldham. 1-1 and Chesterfield fall to 3rd on GD.

Zan-Luk Leban's Farsley won again, 1-0 at Bishop's Stortford. They are 6th. Leban getting rave reviews so far.

….I have a fear that Welch is ‘too soft’ and competitive footy would make or break him. A long season but it’s not looking the best of starts.

Poor keeping by tyrer for the equaliser

This re Mills at Oxford “ir lead 10 minutes after the re-start. Mills made a surging run down the right, reached the byline and sent over a low cross which Williams attempted to clear but succeeded only in turning the ball into his own net.”

 

[blueloon]

Stan Mills, as above

 

[Bedfordblue]

Absolute scruffs

Stan Mills, as above

What a run that is.

 

[atrottel]

What a run that is.

Positive to see he can do it against professional footballers.

One of Forest Greens CB's got sent off yesterday, not sure what for but it was a straight red card, If he’s fit he should see some game time over the next few weeks.

Delighted that he got his first start so early into the season. Won't be long before he gets himself on the scoresheet

Welch will be fine at that level, he proved that against League1/2 teams in last years PapaJohn trophy, but with his lack of physical build it’s hard to see him progressing further up the leagues.

9 months of beyond meat burgers will sort him out. Physicality is something he’s definitely been working on, he was one of the four players that did the summer camp with the trainer that Anthony Gordon worked with, Lewis Warrington, Tyler Onyango and Lewis Dobbin were the others as I remember.

....I thought he was massive.

I actually fear for his competitiveness, he’s not a defender who dies for the cause, he can be bullied by diminutive strikers. We’ll find out lots about him, it’s make or break.

You know my view on loans. But in some circumstances I'm not against it, and Reece Welch is one. He is a "rolls Royce" type defender, but needs to learn to do the dirty side of the game, and be a lot more aggressive.

I mean he's 6 ft 4 mate, and will start to fill out. Has a similar build to Stones.

I think if you’re gonna fill out he needs to already have done it. Same with Astley. No idea why Everton don’t beast these lads in the gym.
