My concern is... yet again one of our players loaned out couldn't get League One / Two club interested. Hereford FC are in the Southern League Premier division - National League North/South is the division above, about that is the National League. About that is League Two.

So basically, he's going to a club in the seventh tier of the league structure,to a team who would need THREE promotions to get into the League proper.

He'll get competitive experience in real matches, sure, but at a poor quality level.
Isn't it now the case that loan transfers between football league clubs are no longer permitted outside the formal transfer windows? So any loan at this time of year could only be to a non-league club. Doesn't mean that clubs at a higher level wouldn't be interested in him. Maybe he'll go somewhere else in January.
