[Albion] The 2023-24 (Last Season!) Loanee Tracker Thread

[GT49er]

Not from me he hasn't. And, assuming he's not an avid reader of NSC in his spare time, he won't ever do.

I apologise for attempting to bring a bit of light-hearted humour to the thread on a dreary Monday afternoon

But unfortnately we all have!

Apology accepted!

 

[schmunk]

Wow! Bet he's never heard that one before .....


.... or that one ................

Aren't you just a scrum-diddly-umptious ray of f***ing sunshine...

I'll switch to fish puns if you like? I can carp on about them for ages.

I'd rather play the missing word game, Shall I start?

****** off!

Back on topic, more updates from the club about our overseas loanees' progress ..........

Loan round-up: Mixed results at home and abroad

Kjell Scherpen's Sturm Graz retained their place at the top of the Austrian Bundesliga table, while Marc Leonard's Northampton now sit just outside the League One relegation spots.

Personally, I'd be quite surprised if Ayari and Sarmiento both feature tonight.

Yep - as predicted. Ayari on the bench, Sarmiento not in the squad.

Sure I read that Sarmiento is out with a muscle injury.. Not having much luck, is he ?

Certainly been out for a while now.

Another goal for Undav tonight. Six in six games now.

Not a great weekend for our English based loanees. Apart from regular starters Rushworth, Beadle and Leonard, almost all the rest weren't even in the squad. Moran came on at half time for Blackburn against Beadle's Oxford United, but that was about it.

Up north, a lot of Albion and ex-Albion interest in the Rangers vs. Hearts match - Sima (Rangers' MOTM in that BBC vote thingy) and Goldson (remember him?) for Rangers, and Offiah and Cochrane as wing backs for Hearts. Offiah subbed in the first half after injury; Brighton O.B. Cochrane had an eventful day - played the full 90, got an assist and picked up a yellow.

Played rather well against Hibs a couple of weekends ago and scored two rather tasty goals - ok, I know its barely Championship standard but the boy seems to be doing good.

 

[Surf's Up]

Sima that is/was - forgot to highlight, duhhh.

 

[GT49er]

Two of our more successful loanees in action tonight in League 1, both starting. Leonard's Northampton are away at Derby, and Oxford United (with Beadle in goal) are away to Lincoln.

Update: bit of a hammering for Northampton (4-0) in the higher division after promotion last season. Another clean sheet for Beadle.

 

[GT49er]

Young Moran had a good 74 minute work out against a pretty strong Chelsea team, which included Cucu and Sanchez. 2-0 to Chesea though.

 

[slimes]

Sima played and had an assist for rangers tonight

In the Championship this afternoon:
Rushworth and Ayari both start, and Sarmiento is sufficiently recovered from injury to make the bench for WBA.
Of our recent departures, Connolly and Taylor Richards are both bench-warming.

In the FA Cup, loanees Leonard, Turns and Rocco Rees (at Worthing) all get starts. James Beadle is given a rest by Oxford, but no place in the Cheltenham squad for Cam Peupion.
Former Brighton youngsters Tolaj and Jenks start for Aldershot and FGR respectively, while up in Scotland Spong has become a regular for Queens Park.

Hmmm .......... can't update my post - so, a separate post to update it is!
Ayari pulled at half time, Sarmiento got five minutes or so for WBA.
Astonishing match in the cup - Tolaj scored two of Aldershot's 7 goals away at higher league opposition - Aldershot 7-0 up by the hour mark, took off the three attackers who'd scored all but one of the goals between them - and promptly let Swindon come back with 4 consolation goals!

In a week were we were spanked by Derby, lost our assistant manager Colin Calderwood to Southampton and then today lost at home to L2 Barrow in the FA Cup..Leonard is still playing at a consistently good level. If our current form continues for much longer, then likely to be a managerial change.

 

[GT49er]

......and still no joy for Weir at Blackpool, even in a cup match against lower league opposition. Got to be one of the worst loans ever - surely we must recall him in January?

Colin Calderwood walking out on you as assistant manager is something you have in common with Brighton now!

He walked out on us as manager previously so is gradually working down the hierarchy!
