Not sure that League 1 isn't a bit under-cooked for rising star Rushworth. Just right for Roberts though - time for him to go on loan and show the early promise is justified.

Roberts previously spent a season on loan in League 1.
.... and now needs a much better one.

A couple of familiar faces there for him. Max Sanders there already, and Danny Mandriou about to join.

I'm not sure I'm a fan of young Carl's catching technique...

& they’ve signed 20 year old Jay Benn from Halifax, so presumably he’d know Rushworth too.
They’ve done some good business this window, might be back around the play-off hunt like they were a couple of years ago.

Bit disappointed he didn't come to us, seems quite highly rated. Word on the street is that guaranteed game time was an issue which makes sense from both perspectives.
Like you say on the other thread, seems odd to get Roberts though when you actually have some good options there
Disappointing loan IMO…
Was really hoping for a championship team - still Sanchez followed a L2 then L1 approach and he turned out rather well.
Hopefully he’ll get ‘guaranteed’ playing time.

I think it’s slightly different for a GK. Yes the finishing isn’t as good but neither in the defending so he’ll have lots of work to do. And it’s great to prepare a GK physically which it undoubtedly is at that level. He does seem to be an exceptional young keeper so will keep a close eye on this one.

Thread title says Walsall. I thought he had come back from Walsall at the end of last season? Either way I am sure he will do us proud!
The difference IMO, is actually the level of sharpness, as every step up the quickness of the game and speed of thought is another level. Taking that specific point there isn’t a lot of difference between L1 and L2, which is why I’m a bit disappointed.

Another local lad, but I doubt they have crossed paths, Charley Kendall (previously QPR under 23's) from Eastbourne has recently been signed by Lincoln.

Ah I see. Glad I am not going crazy!
Tad disappointing for me - I'd have liked to see him jump up a division higher. Still, it worked just fine for Big Bob - and anyway the development team know far more than I do about what's best for him at this time!
Hope he has another stellar season.
