Connor Furlong also recalled apparently from Aylesbury


It was due to expire on Wednesday anyway, so unless they have a game Tuesday then it’s not really an early recall.

What will be interesting this next couple of days is whether Dan Micciche loans out any of the fringe players? Robbie Neilson went on record as saying he was definitely planning to but DM hasn’t said anything on that matter. In a way, I’d sooner they were training under DM currently. For once, that may be of bigger benefit than actually getting games elsewhere.

I'm not sure if the end of the January Window counts at the low levels that Tilney and Furlong were at. I think the semi-professional leagues can carry on getting loans until March, like we could until recently. If so, DM can have a look at them and then choose to loan them out later. But there's probably only those two that would go down to that level, anyone else would have to go before February.


Fair point re>the “non-closure” of the window in respect of loans to that level. I’m not sure the likes of Jackson, Logan, Kasumu, Nombe etc. are ready to play any higher than Confernce North/South though.

He might well do, but I'm talking in the here and now. Any club that picks him up is buying potential, not a first team ready football league player.

Anyway, that's quite a bold claim. Care to share how you came by this knowledge?

If he does go I assume we get a small fee decided at a tribunal. Anyone know if that is correct?

I had high hopes for him here but he has never really had a chance

Was about to post about him - he seems a bit of an anomaly within the squad. Been around as a pro for 2 seasons now, but only sent out for a single short loan spell, yet doesn't seem to get anywhere near the first team squad.

Good move for both parties.

He’s a proper good player. If we had Karl Robinson here he’d have played a lot more. Robbie Neilson is a bottle job.
