  • Re: Loan Report

    Kortrijk drew 2-2 with Cercle Brugge earlier and, as Eric says in his thread, they remain 6 points off safety. They'd won their last two games and went ahead after 14 minutes today but then got a red card twenty minutes later and were 2-1 down going into injury time before getting an equaliser. Tsunoda played the ninety minutes.

      Only one way to start this week's round-up, Michael Reindorf is back in the game. I'm not sure what's happened between him and manager Inigo Calderon but it looks like hatchets have been buried, hands shaken and a truce declared. With Bristol Rovers hovering above the relegation zone, Reindorf still has the chance to turn this loan spell around. A last minute winner on the final day of season to save Rovers, carried from the pitch on the shoulders of excited fans, a warm embrace with Calderon before walking into the arms of the beautiful woman that everyone fancies? A film to follow with Adam Sandler playing Reindorf? Stranger things have happened. I may be getting a bit ahead of myself here, Reindorf was an unused sub as Rovers lost 1-0 at Bolton yesterday, but let's stay positive for now.

      Reindorf wasn't the only unused sub yesterday. Kion Etete stayed on the bench for Bolton in the same game, Ryan Wintle didn't get on for Millwall and an illness hit Joel Colwill didn't for Exeter either having missed their midweek game altogether. Oldham didn't have a game yesterday but I expect Jake Dennis sat on a bench somewhere at 3.00 for a couple of hours out of habit. Eli King didn't start for Stevenage but did get on for the final 15 minutes and apparently 'got stuck in' as Stevenage scored two late goals to beat Crawley 3-1. Eli started in the week and played well in a loss to Stockport.

      A goal for Kieron Evans yesterday. A nice touch and finish as he got behind Carlisle's backline to put Newport 1-0 up and that soon became 2-0 but they ended up losing 3-2 to Mark Hughes' side. Kadeem Harris had a good game for Carlisle. Ryotaro Tsunoda starts for Kortrijk this afternoon as they play at STVV in a relegation play-off game, they're now seven points from safety with five games left so it's pretty much a must-win game for them.

        So there's light at the end of the loan tunnel by the looks of things. Funny you should mention Kadeem Harris, Would he still be considered a youngster if he was still with us? Great report, Thanks.👍

          I like Kadeem. Him and Rhys Healey couldn't have done much more to make it here but it never quite happened for them. In and out of the first team squad, out on loans, endless games for the u-21s but they always seemed committed to doing their best and I don't remember a bad word being said about either of them. Apart from on here, of course.

          Kortrijk won 3-0 after, good result. They play the bottom team twice in a row now so they've still got a chance. Tsunoda played the 90 minutes, in a back three by the look of it.

            Harris was the best crosser of the ball (in my opinion) out of the wide players we had back then, good weight on the ball and accurate. I actually don't think that Tsunoda actually exists....

              A quick update on our loaned out players before this weekend's action.

              Nothing much to report domestically, Eli King and Kion Etete both missed their teams' games on Saturday, Joel Colwill and Kieron Evans came on as subs in theirs and Ryan Wintle didn't get on for Millwall. Jake Dennis didn't even get on the bench for Oldham, they're back to two senior keepers again so his run of bench warming has come to an end.

              One thing to mention though is that Stevenage's local paper has done an update on player ratings for the season. Eli King has gone from C- before Xmas to B+ now, he's their most improved player apparently and someone the club should be looking to sign for next season. Except the journalist expects him to be playing for us, especially if we should (somehow) get relegated.

              Whatever the problem has been between Inigo Calderon and Michael Reindorf at Bristol Rovers it looks like that's a hill Calderon is prepared to die on as Reindorf was left out of the squad again on Saturday and Rovers lost again, for the sixth game in a row. They've now dropped into the bottom four, they travel to Wrexham tomorrow and Burton, who moved above them on Saturday, have a game in hand. Welcome to our world guys.

              Kortrijk are on a roll in the Belgian play-offs. A 3-2 victory over Dirk Kuyt's Beerschot means that a win in the return match tomorrow evening will leave them either level or a point behind the second placed team with two games left. First place would ensure their safety, second would put them in a play off to decide their fate. Ryotaro Tsunoda played the ninety minutes on Saturday and, presumably, will be a key player again tomorrow. Beerschot are based in Antwerp, which is the only place I've ever been to with an all-you-can-drink restaurant. Probably not relevant here but I thought I'd pass it on anyway.

                The season is petering out for our loaned players. It started full of promise but has become an anti-climax, brief hopes of an upturn just turned out to be a false dawn and it feels like it'll be a relief when it's all over. Sounds familiar but I'm not sure why.

                This doesn't apply to Ryotaro Tsunoda, by the way. He seems to be having a strong finish to the season at Kortrijk as they try to escape relegation. Their play-off campaign continues this Friday, not last Friday as I said last week. Apologies for the mistake, clueless.

                Same old, same old for the rest although Joel Colwill did get 90 minutes in for Exeter in a defeat at Crawley on Monday. Sub appearances for Ryan Wintle, Kieron Evans and Kion Etete (who had six touches in a 25 minute cameo against Wycombe but none within 25 yards of the Wycombe goal. Bolton have collapsed and fallen out of the play-off race, maybe they should've got an experienced manager like Steven Schumacher in).

                No sign of Eli King lately. I'm assuming he's got an injury but it's been a hard season to follow. Most of Stevenage's stuff is behind a paywall and Alex Revell seems to be a slightly random manager so it's guesswork making sense of Eli's progress at times. Saying that, it's a piece of cake compared to making sense of what's happened with Michael Reindorf at Bristol Rovers. Rovers lost another striker to injury on Monday, in another home defeat, but whether that means Reindorf finally comes in from the cold we'll have to wait and see.

                    With the possible exception of Joel Colwill at Cheltenham at the beginning of the season, none of our loanees have had much success. My Bolton mate said Etete has been truly awful for them! Are we stuck with him again next season?

                      Till June '27, yes.

                      What has your mate made of Schumacher, by the way? I know they've been badly hit by injuries but I'm surprised how they've fallen away.

                        Try and get some money for him presumably

                        Or getting him some experience for our winning League 2 campaign in 26/27?

                          Thanks for the latest report. Unless we're assuming Salech or Simic will leave then Etete's new contract is another baffling one. Although it's baffling anyway cos I don't think he's good enough even for L1.

                          Given our probable demotion will we have to go even further down the pyramid to secure loans next year? What's it like mining the Combined Counties League for info?

                            I know what you mean but I don't mind those one-year extensions really. If the player impresses pre-season then bring them into the squad, if not then send them out on loan where, presumably, most or all of their (relatively small) wages will be covered. We did it with Conte and Fagan-Walcott too. It's more of an issue when you can't secure a loan for them, as happened with Tom Davies, or they get sent back, as happened with Conte, but I don't see it as a big issue.

                              Can't be harder than Stevenage.

                                Thanks for your efforts this season.

                                Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but it's a shame we didn't leave Colwill at Cheltenham and tell Rovers no thanks when they hijacked Reindorf's loan to Notts County. If they were that keen on him maybe we should have slapped an appearance clause onto the agreement.
