Tbh, I'm surprised he has dropped that far down but it may be that he wants to build his career with a decent club that knows him and his strengths. All the best to him, always liked him but never quite had enough to break through.

Russell Griffiths recalled from loan at Cheltenham (presumably as cover for Robles?).
I presume Luke Garbutt has also returned since his loan was only until January originally?

I saw something that Cheltenham had brought in a Wycombe GK on loan . The context was that Wycombe had brought in in or extended the long an of a GK from Chelsea so were sending this guy to Cheltenham for game time, but I noticed Griffiths played today.
I'm not sure about Garbutt, I thought all loans under the new scheme were a season long unless they're brought back, but to be honest it's so messy I haven't a clue as to these new rules.

i think garbutt is just injured
I thought a loan now had to be from and until one of the transfer windows, but I could easily be wrong.

Cheltenham Town - Russell Griffiths played full match in 0-2 away defeat to Colchester United
OS Match Report
"It was the home side who had the first chance after one minute as Kurtis Guthrie won them a corner, but Chris Porter could only guide his header from the set piece straight at Russell Griffiths. On the 10 minute mark Colchester took the lead as a free kick on the left hand side was hit towards the back post, and Eastman was on hand to send a looping header over Griffiths and into the far corner."
"Five minutes before half time the ball broke to Porter just inside the box, but even though he had plenty of space he wasn’t able to shoot anywhere other than straight at Griffiths so it remained 1-0 to Colchester at the break."
"It was then the home side’s turn to have a spell of pressure and it took an acrobatic save from Griffiths and a clearance off the line from Jordan Cranston to keep Cheltenham in the game."

Doncaster Rovers - Conor Grant played full match in 1-0 home win over Stevenage Town
OS Match Report
"Rovers kicked off the day’s proceedings by announcing that the loan signing of Everton player Conor Grant, who was back for his second stint with the South Yorkshire side. He was included in Darren Ferguson’s starting XI and he was involved right from the get-go as he played a slick ball down Borough’s right flank which was duly picked up by Rowe."
"Rovers continued to dominate but could not find that decisive final pass, some lovely play from new signing Grant and youngster Harry Middleton almost broke the deadlock. Grant collected a throw in from Rowe, his inch-perfect touch took him round the Boro defence before laying the ball off to James Coppinger."
"Rovers had the final chance of the half and it fell to Grant once again, a well-worked move down the middle of the field eventually fell to the loanee, but his outside of the foot effort was straight down the throat of Jones."
"Grant fired wide just after the hour mark as Rovers countered before Ferguson made his first change, introducing Andy Williams at the expense of Middleton."

I agree , By far the most interesting and well presented posts on these boards
It looks like Doncaster v Portsmouth is on Sky Sports tomorrow night, Thursday, chance to see Grant if he plays.
Brewster gone back to Stockport County has he or is it Southport?
I saw something on the OS but only skimmed it

Back a page, Mikey. It's Southport and he has already made his debut, scored and been booked....
Haha, no he was booked for being mobbed by his mates when he scored, ran to the crowd , everybody jumped on his back, puzzled look and expressive hands to ref when he's booked. There's a video somewhere of his goal, celebration and booking, probabaly on the Youth thread. He does seem to have bulked up a wee bit.

I understand Donny made a bid to make take him on a permanent basis, this was apparently excepted by the club, but Grant wanted to see if he could have a chance back here next summer.
