Believe Egahosa is off as well as Rus

That would seem likely given he's not made the bench for the first team and has been AWOL from the youth sides for a good while.

Rus is a strange one, he did well for Chorley in two loan spells which ok is no Indication that he would have made it with us but I'm pretty certain a lower English side would have taken him and be paying a lot more than he's making in Romania.

Yeah I realise that but pro European footballers are rarely so sentimental. I suppose it's a league in which he can probably shine and maybe kick on from there.

Development loan or binning off like Rus? Hopefully the former

To a club overseas I believe

Heard Chris Allen (coach) is off to Southampton, the academy kitman has joined burton Albion & that rus & Egahosa were leaving/left earlier this week

Chris Allen joined Southampton as U21s Assistant a couple of weeks ago.

I hope Egosha is an overseas development loan. he's looked quite tricky.

Burroughs out for 2-3 weeks with ankle injury at Lincoln

Howley hasn't been in the squad since going off injured 3 games ago

I was quite optimistic about Howley after his appearances last season. It’s a shame he’s had so little game time.

Has the kit man left or leaving ?

He's got plenty of time surely. He us still quite young no?

Yeah just would have liked his loan to have gone better.

Left for Burton

He's 20. Not a kid anymore so nows the time if he's going to step up

Di Trolio posted a story on insta of him playing footy somewhere. Wonder if he's gone back out on loan?

He’s playing for Bishop’s Stortford.

Impossible. I’m reliably informed out youth players are incapable of playing against teams that level and will start crying as soon as they go behind.

Gone for a Burton?

Who reliably informed you ?

Half of SBT in the other thread. Claimed playing Lusala and Andrews against Maidstone would be the end times.

It's been extended. He played for them yesterday.

How far off fitness is Isaac Moore ?

 

[larry_david]

He’s playing for Bishop’s Stortford.

Sent off today after about 12 mins

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Obikwu started for Grimsby yesterday and got 78 mins. Hopefully it will continue.

 

[Joy Division]

Fairly positive reviews of Obikwu from Grimsby fans yesterday

 

[slowpoke]

Got a tough job there they are near bottom of division two but it’s all about getting experience.

Di Trollio back playing for our u21 side again today. Not sure what's happening with him.

Stretton also playing (and scored) so seems he won't be involved against Maidstone which is a slight surprise as he seems to have been the most favoured of all the u21 group. I was sure he would at least make the bench.

He got sent off the other week so 3 game ban I imagine so probably back training/playing with us in the meantime.

He any good?, him and Kai Andrews look the most likely to break through from the 21s group

He was looking very promising before his injury. Stretton also stands a chance of breaking into the first team, along with Eghosa and Batanwi.
