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

[GT49er]

Jack Spong has left Queens Park by mutual consent according to their club website.

Thanks for that info. - after starting pretty much every game, he was suddenly dropped when the new manager came. Wonder what happened there? - he appeared to be doing well before then.

After a bit of googling, Queens Park fans seem a bit mystified, and none too pleased. As he left during the window, does that make him a free agent now, able to sign for another team?

 

[GT49er]

First summary since the window finished - who's making starts for their new clubs today?
Championship:
Blackburn - Moran starts, Ayari on the bench; Wednesday - Beadle starts; Ipswich - Sarmiento starts; Swansea - Rushworth in goal. Encouraging!
League1:
Samuels vs. Weir (Port Vale) at Fleetwood this afternoon - Weir starts, Samuels on bench; Leonard starts for Northampton; Hinchy on the Shrewsbury bench.
League2:
Turns straight in for Crewe.
Good number of starters - let's hope some of these second half loans are better than some were in the first half of the season.
Recently gone - but not forgotten:
Teddy Jenks starts again for Ross County in the SPL; no sign of Jack Spong at Queens Park, nor of Connolly or Furlong for Hull. Tolaj leads the line for the Shots.

All happened after 67/68 minutes - Sarmiento and Weir hooked, and Ayari and Hinchy sent on. Samuels came on right at the end for his debut.

Was a belter as well..deserved to be more than a consolation.

What like a consolidation?

That is an extraordinary strike. Like an arrow.

Maybe it was travelling a tad faster!

Solid performance from James Beadle tonight for Massive in their 2-0 win

Solid performance from James Beadle tonight for Massive in their 2-0 win

Yes, some of the Massive supporters have started to realise he's not just a frightened teenager that we've imposed upon them for some sort of financial benefit! The more intelligent (assuming there are some) may start to wonder how and why an Oxford United defence started looking more composed, confident and efficient after two or three games playing in front of him too. Wednesday have just got a clean sheet - I wonder why !
A goalkeeper - even a teenage one - can have a huge influence on the players in front of him.

Sarmiento on the bench for Ipswich today - came on for the final ten minutes or so against his former club, WBA. Would have been nice if he could have pinched a winner to show them what they're missing! - but not to be.
Elsewhere in The Championship, Moran and Ayari both on the bench for Blackburn, while Rushworth keeps his place between the sticks for Swansea.
League1 - starts for Leonard and Weir (not much love for him from the Port Vale fans - they seem convinced he is just a youngster with no experience; mind you, they're pretty miserable about everything at the moment!) Jack Hinchy makes his first start for Shrewsbury, but Imari Samuels only makes the bench at Fleetwood.
In League2, Turns starts at CB for Crewe.

Does anyone know what's gone wrong for Moran, the Blackburn fans on Twitter seem happy he's benched?

Does anyone know what's gone wrong for Moran, the Blackburn fans on Twitter seem happy he's benched?

Good question! In September he was 'a class above and skilful', but by November he was weak, slow and unthreatening.

New manager probably bad news for him - new managers like to make a change or two to stamp their mark on the team, and if Moran's the one Eustace has picked to be his change it could be a tough gig for him the rest of the season

 

[Hiheidi]

Yes, and feels like sending Ayari there too might not end up being the best option.

Ed Turns going down well with Crewe fans.

Crewe must love us - first Beadle, now Turns!
