  • Re: Loan Report

    Etete was subbed at half time in his final game for Rotherham and at half time on his debut for St Mirren. Fair play.

      Does that make him the opposite of a super sub?

        Not according to the marks on the BBC website, he came bottom with 2.18
        Doesn’t look like he’s got the Buddies fan base onside either

          Weirdly, the guy who replaced him was also subbed off, so the line-up shows J. Devaney - K. Etete 63' - M. Dijksteel 90' - J. Calvin 102'. Must be quite rare.
          I hate to say it, but the sooner we can cut his wage bill, the better.

            The article I wanted was behind a paywall but it seems that the manager wanted to go into extra time with two wide men and Etete was sacrificed. A 2-1 win suggests he made the right call.

            A 1-0 away win for Yeovil today as Altrincham paid the price for missing a first half penalty. Dakarai Mafico continued his development as a central midfielder by getting another 90 minutes in as a left wing-back. A clean sheet but a few scary moments for him defensively, only to be expected I guess. He was taking corners today which I hadn't seen before.

            Troy Perrett started for Yeovil too and was doing some good number 10 things in the clips I saw. Driving from midfield, drifting into the box to receive a through ball, nearly putting his striker in with a quick pass and getting involved in build-up play. He was taken off after 69 minutes but both him and Mafico played their part today.

            Elsewhere, Tanatswa Nyakuhwa got 22 minutes in for Newport as they drew 0-0 with Grimsby in a game where each team had a penalty saved. No pitch time for Luey Giles as Eastleigh drew 2-2 but Ewan Griffiths played in goal for Cardiff Met as they drew 1-1 with Bala.

            89 minutes for Michael Reindorf as Tamworth scored their first league goal in a month in a 1-1 home draw with Hartlepool, not much info on his contribution as yet. Hartlepool will be disappointed with the draw but should be grateful they didn't have their team bus stolen from there as Alvechurch did on Tuesday night. It would've been a long walk home.

            If they're on the pitch at the same time tomorrow then Jesper Daland and Roko Simic will come up against each other in a game some people are already calling 'the 2. Bundesliga match between Karlsruher and Fortuna Dusseldorf'. And it's hard to argue with that.

              A brief, but very positive, Yeovil perspective on Mafico and Perrett here. It's the third of the five 'conclusions' in the article.

              Gloverscast Ben was on co-ommentary duty for BBC Somerset this weekend. He was at the J Davidson Stadium to witness the last minute winner for the Glovers. Here are his five conclusions. Jed Ward saves Penalties. When they document this season in a Hollywood movie or a Netflix documentary, thereContinue Reading

                    Early days but it is encouraging, yes.

                    Fair play to Mafico. As far as I know he hasn't played in any 5 at the back set-up in his time here and is a centre-mid (BBM quickly abandoned any idea of using him as a full back after the Rotherham game).

                    So to go to a new club, play left wing-back and pick up their player of the month award straight off is impressive. I wonder what BBM will see him as when he comes back if this continues?

                      Etete didn’t even get off the bench this evening as St Mirren lost 4-3 at Kilmarnock. Another great loan spell developing for him.

                        Another '90' minutes for Dakarai Mafico tonight. He probably wishes it was only 90 minutes because in the 91st, with Yeovil drawing 2-2 at Boreham Wood, he fouled Cameron Coxe outside the box and the resulting free kick was rifled into the top corner from 25 yards out. Troy Perrett came on after 65 minutes with Yeovil losing 2-1 and down to 10 men. He got the assist for the equaliser and tested the keeper after that but it wasn't Yeovil's night.

                        Half an hour for Tanatswa Nyakuhwa in a 2-0 defeat for Newport at Swindon tonight. Will Spiers was back starting for Merthyr in yesterday's 0-0 draw at Kidderminster but no pitch time for Michael Reindorf for Tamworth in a 2-2 draw at Morecambe.

                        Three former City lads featured for Eastleigh last night but no pitch time for the current one, Luey Giles. While their neighbours, Southampton, went to the Midlands and came back from 3-0 down to win 4-3, Eastleigh were 2-0 down at half time at Solihull but came back to win 3-2. James Waite with the winner.

                          We should only loan players out to Yeovil!

                            We were saying this about Cheltenham when Joel Colwill was doing well there but we've never seemed to build a regular link with another club, even Kortrijk.

                            We've probably loaned more to Newport than anyone else over the past ten years or so but I cant think of anyone who's had a great spell there off the top of my head. From David Tutonda, Tommy O'Sullivan (who's now playing for Samui United in the third division in Thailand, as you do) and Jazzy Barnum-Bobb through to Kieron Evans and Michael Reindorf it's never led to much. I'd even say Mark Harris made it here despite his time at Newport rather than because of it. Hopefully Nyakuhwa will prove an exception but he's off to a slow start there for now.

                              Goalkeeper Jake Dennis has joined Merthyr on a short-term loan until 30th March 2026.

                                Watched a bit of the yeovil match, Mafico played lwb. Didn't get much of the ball as from what I saw even before 10 men Boreham wood were the better team.

                                Seemed a bit wasted there. The one time he did actually get more central was some tidy touches in the build up to the equaliser at 2-2 and then they seemed to revert back to the back 5. Naive in the foul on the edge of the box that led to the winner.

                                It's a lot slower but there was next to no hoof ball.
