General Sykes being loaned out!!!!

[Northstand grandad]

What the heck for????!!!!

 

[Archieyellow]

Mmm game time ?

 

[Northstand grandad]

Give it to him here??

 

[Archieyellow]

Down the pecking order, who would you loan out?

 

[Jackinthebox]

Not sure that is a good decision.
We need to see the fitness of Hall, Baptiste and Thorne proved first.

 

[Northstand grandad]

Hall has had it, Sykes is better

OM report ...

We’ve got loads of midfielders. If the management think he should go out on loan to get games then I don’t see the problem with it.

 

[Sarge]

with Woodburn out (wales call up) for 2 matches in Sept , Hall clearly not fit, Baptiste & Thorne not fit, farming Sykes out seems a ridiculous decision, even more so considering the way both Brannagan and Gorrin are amassing yellow cards ... unless theres something happened behind the scenes that isnt (yet) in the public domain?

 

[lerekdilley]

I can see the reasoning behind it although I was looking forward to seeing him feature more this season. This will be a fantastic signing for a League 2 side.

 

[uptheus]

Very poor decision.

What the heck for????!!!!

Game time

 

[Foley]

I am.not hugely surprised and hopefully he will play a lot of games in L2 and get in the team second half of the season.
I saw him in sine pre season friendlies and thought that he was a little off the pace.
Our squad is now far bigger and on paper has a lot of quality.
Good luck to him.

 

[Sarge]

the reasoning as to why could be asked in todays 5 mins fans forum on Rad Ox ... I cant be arsed to pose the question (to Niall McW), after radox yet again filtered questions( for KR) last week!!!!

but maybe someone could ask/ send the question in ?


IMO an open and public Fans Forum is whats needed, where Q's are unfiltered and can be asked directly to those best placed to answer

I'm not sure I want to be annoyed by listening to that sound bite again. 5 minutes of the same evasive and circumnavigating of the question is a waste of 5 minutes.
And, asking about the playing staff would play right into his hands. Perfect opportunity to waffle about what a marvellous job has been done but at the end of the day, we have to be sustainable.

 

[Big Ronaldo]

Disappointed for the lad. I was hoping that he would get the chance to play here, not on loan somewhere else. However, if he plays well in his time away then there is every chance that he could force his way back in.

 

[Mellowyellow]

Very poor decision, as it’s with us he should be getting the game time, due to the reasons already listed.

Agree, he seemed to be off his game at the Eastleigh PSF. But then so did all the youngsters.

 

[Ricey]

Maybe freeing up some money to bring in the winger KR had wanted?

I would have personally kept him but he does need game time, maybe he comes back an even better player...

Game time

He should be getting it here.

He is far more useful to us than Hall, and even has more product than Woodburn from what I've seen so far.

Personally, at present I'd have him in the team or squad, definitely ahead of Hall and Forde, and on a par with Woodburn and Henry.
