Probably back here to become a centre half
How can you spend the majority of summer on trial with a club and they don’t want you a month in?!
I was at Bristol Rovers vs Oxford. He came on for the last 5 mins or so. Committed, quick and agile, however his touch let him down a couple times. He just didn’t have long enough to get into the game.
This move looks to have been a big mistake
He's just moved to the area and his partner's two kids are starting at a new school
Then he gets called in and told to find another loan club as the manager has decided to change the way he sets the team up
Football can be a ruthless business

Charlton? They’re a better team than Oxford, imagine he’ll be going to a League 2 club
Doesn't help that the manager has changed systems to one that now doesn't include wingers.
A similar little anecdote that made me smile this summer was Carl Baker's lad having to trial for Telford, the club where his dad is assistant manager...
Honestly thought he'd rip up league 1. Hopefully he still does somewhere.
Problem with Jones is he ripped up league two for half a season. He wasn’t setting the world alight before we got relegated to league two and of course was injured during our league one seasons.
probably needs a league two loan to get his confidence back
It can happen, I suppose. To an extent, the likes of Jobello (even if not injured) & Kastaneer were made redundant after our formation change in October 19.
Of course formation changes can come because certain players perhaps weren't good enough to make the previous system work and the manager goes with a system that utilises the strengths of the players in the squad.
It is clear they feel after his injuries he needs to be playing matches regularly between now and Christmas so they can assess him properly.
It is not like they have given up on him or rejected him - just a realisation he needs to be getting regular football.

He probably needed to drop to League 2, so he was sure to be a starter. Build up his confidence, and try to get back to the form of 2018/2019.
Still think he will be a decent Championship player eventually but having missed 3.5 years of football with injury, he needs a season of playing 40 games.

If you read Robinson's comments he says he was signed as a backup.
This may even have been the plan all along.
i would have Jodi jones before Bidwell, any time. bidwell= slow, robotic and unimaginative
You'd rather a winger, who hasn't really played consistently since the back end of 2017, over Bidwell who has well over 300 apps at this level?
obviously those 300 apps are in the past.Bidwell/eccles will get city relegated.
