As we're coming back to the transfer window, I thought it would be worth looking at our our players are doing out on loan:
Ryan Howley, 21, contract expires June 2025.
Currently at Aye United in the Scottish Championship. Made just 9 appearance in the league, only 3 have been starts. Total of 319 mins. Also played 3 challenge cup games (2 starts). So total of 12 games, 411 mins
Has had a couple of niggles but disappointing total game time 12 games out of a possible 26, 411 out of a possible 2,340 mins.
Second consecutive failed loan spell, particularly having dropped down a league must spell the end of his time at the club.
Jack Burroughs, 23, contract expires
Having a similarly poor loan spell albeit also had a few niggles but has dropped out the side. Made just 10 appearances out of a possible 19 in the SPL, and only 3 of those were starts. Did start two Europa Conference League qualifying games, but puts his total of 5 starts and 7 sub appearances basically the same as Ryan Howley albeit it in a higher league.
Total games 12 of a possible 26 games, 530 our of a possible 2,340 minutes.
With his contract expiring at the end of the season, and him turning 24 he will surely be released in the summer.
I think Jack will probably get someone from league two or league one interested in the summer but I imagine Howley will slip into non league.
Justin Obikwu, 20, contract expires July 2025.
Grimsby signed him knowing he was injured and would take a 4-6 weeks to recover and get fit. So despite a brief 8 minute cameo against Doncaster, didn't really comeback into the team until 22nd October. Since then he has made 9 league appearances out of a possible 11, starting 5 of those 9 and scoring 4 goals at a rate of a goal every 82 mins. He's also made a few cup appearances.
Total of 535 mins, 12 appearances, 4 goals and 1 assist. However seems to be injured again.
He turns 21 in Feb, and with us already having 4 senior strikers plus Tavares for just 1 lone striking berth i'd be surprised if we extend his contract.
