Wonder if he is lined up to go somewhere else or if we will be playing him?

Only played 14 times. We might want to send him somewhere he’s first choice.

He's been playing pretty much. Missed a game or two for outside reasons, and been rotated when they've had a regular run of games.

Obviously means that we’re selling Dabo and Hamer so Joy can buy some new handbags

Was he not injured for a bit whilst on loan there? Think their fans would quite like to have kept him.

The article on the official suggests he will link up with the squad on Saturday. Wouldn't be surprised if hes kept around, extra body in the building whilst Covid increases etc

When Kelly got injured I thought we'd recall Eccles to cover him, with the assumption that we weren't going to sign anyone.

If we sign Matty James then Eccles must be going elsewhere, because it would be strange to recall him only for him to be behind Sheaf, Hamer and James (and Kelly in a couple of months)

Can't play for anyone else I don't think as he's already played for us & Gillingham.

Seems there's been a temporary rule change this season to avoid any concerns regarding unemployed players.

REVEALED: Players to be allowed to play for THREE clubs in one season

FIFA said that the move was 'to avoid any concerns regarding unemployed players' and was intended to allow clubs to complete the 2019/20 season with their original squad.

Hmmm, that's interesting. I know it was brought in for the end of 2019/20 but Daily Mail seems like the only source claiming it's for 2020/21 too.

EFL say not:

Wondered if maybe a midfielder going out? Only really Allen or Shipley would be possible wouldn't they?

If we sign an AM then I could definitely see one of them going out, probably Allen.

I've seen a couple of publications run with the same story but it could be that the Daily Mail has got this wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. We'll have to see.

Maybe they want Eccles in the building to watch James at work for a few weeks then get him back out to another club as we pay all of his wages there would be a few wanting him I would think

I cannot see either of them going and certainly not Shipperz.

Robins said this in December :

“He started off really well and had a breather. He had some family stuff he had to take care of and then he was back involved, but he has been in and out so we will look at that moving forward, see how many games he plays and then address that in January.”

Not really anything to see here, he's come back because he isn't playing enough. Robins I guess will look to loan him out elsewhere

I think Allen may go. He'd be an attractive proposition for League One clubs and he's unlikely to see much game time here, especially if we're to bring in another AM.

Maybe MR just rang up Evans and using his squeakiest voice telling him that he just wants to fuck up his plans.

He must think Drysdale is the lowest of the low, then.

With potential of all the wheeling and dealing we might see him as useful on the bench? Other thought is if Pask goes out and MacCallum recalled do we see him as potential wing back full back cover ?

I imagine Eccles will be a bench player now then unless he's lined lined up elsewhere. He's started the last 4 games so odd to recall him though to sit on the bench.

Assume some outs are happening

If he’s in the squad for Norwich they I would assume he is staying.

Eccles was on the bench for Gills in FA cup first round match but didnt come on. No idea if that effects whether he can play Saturday!

He can play for us in the Cup. Unlike James who wasn’t signed a week before the cup tie.

I suspect it’s a sign that we will field a back up team on Saturday and if the DM article is correct he may get a second loan later in the month.
