    Umut Nayir has been loaned to Pendikspor, a deal that was done at the beginning of the season, so it seems its happened again


    ✍️According to the agreement made at the beginning of the season between Eyüpspor and Fenerbahçe: Both clubs approval was required for Umut Nayir to transfer to another team.

    Let’s see though

    I think you may have misread that. Nayir was signed last summer by Fenerbahce from Eyupspor, the deal to Pendikspor wasn't agreed then

      Sam Bowen had that rare quality of a player who plays with his head up, doesn't need to look at the ball. It's rare, see Hoddle and Le Tissier. I'm not comparing him to either of those players, that would be ridiculous, but what it does say is that he had a natural gift but maybe wasn't given the tools and skills that can be taught.
      I was at Uni in Manchester, and we used to play 5 a side every week on the next pitch to Man City's u16s or u18s played on, so every week, we'd play our game and then watch the kids for free. It is literally all about keeping the ball, and doing the right thing over and over. The results couldn't matter less. Without getting all grumpy about it, I struggle to see how it helps the vast majority of players who won't ever play at that level.

      The last manager we had to really give the kids a go was Mick. He trusted Bowen and Colwill to levels that nobody has done since. Maybe that's why he got the chop

That experience will stand them in better stead to get loans in the EFL than playing u21s will.

        What's baffling is that we regularly perform well at age group level, often beating Swansea and Bristol City yet they're the ones chucking youngsters into the first team. 17 year old Parker at Swansea's played a few games recently, I find it hard to believe he's streets ahead of each of our academy players given our results against Swansea in recent years

        On the pre-academy players I also think we had managers more willing to put in a younger player
        If we are 15th by March, I'd play both Colwills and Ashford over any loanee. We are 15 clear of the drop, we aren't going down so we might as well see what we can do.

        Unless we pull some serious signings out of the bag, and Ramsey gets fit we can kiss the playoffs goodbye. Even if we get in, how on Earth are we going to get a result against Leeds or Southampton over 2 legs

          I'd play both Colwill's along with Ashford an Tanner against Plymouth. I think we are on a hiding to nothing next Saturday anyway with Plymouth's home form, especially if we sent out the starting XI we did yesterday.

            Plymouth have lost another loanee. This is a glorious opportunity for 3 points.

              We wouldn't beat either of them if all their players only had one leg.

                We should have put them to the sword at home.

                    Honestly don’t remember Bulut saying Nayir was nailed on. I do remember that every time Bulut was asked about players he was thinking about his answer was always predicated by maybe we can maybe we can’t…it’s all down to the finances. Which in my opinion means that he’s not going to name any names to the media until the deal is done

                      Had to fall into one. The crowd down the Bay have a lot of influence when it comes to funding and Howell school is not stupid

                        Given that we're 21st in the form table over the last 10 games, thoughts of making the playoffs are fanciful at best.

                          Not sure what "the crowd down the bay" had to do with it. Howell's is an independent school.

                            even if we somehow scrape into it there would be a couple of teams that are clearly better than us in there.
                            not worth gambling on it this season imo

                              And yet we're still 3 points off the top 6. The division is mental
