Can we borrow Tevez please? Maybe Bellamy as well if they're feeling kind.

Was very interesting reading that. Sounds like Fitton's trying to work his way up the league(s) through favours from top clubs. I'm for one am not complaining  |

The five loan players in a match day squad is likely to be a problem for us sooner or later, it nearly was recently. I'd like to see this limit removed or increased, or maybe for season long loans not to count. Loan players mean clubs like us can get good quality players without having to pay transfer fees or big salaries and gets players games that they wouldn't be getting otherwise - everybody wins. Plus increased use of loan players could go some of the way to getting Football League clubs profitable again.

But you don't want to be filling the squad with too many loan players so five is really adequate

Whilst it's nice to have these links - in a way I would like us to be 100% STFC not 60% + a jumble of other players. Suppose it's progress + I hardly never see a match so good for you guys and gals  |

Javan Vidal, Alex Nimely, Ben Mee and Greg Cunningham are highly rated there and a few of them have made some appearances in the first team. That Boyata is also higly rated, but has started for them, so probabaly out of our league.

Its a good link up, one of the better premier league clubs to do it with. Citys yoof system has been strong for a while, and its only going to get better with the money they have now.

Maybe if we go up we could get Michael Johnson. Although saying that, i think he's a bit good for the CCC.

Sometimes I have to pinch myself to make sure i'm not dreaming! So we now have Liverpool, Man City and Celtic as our 'feeder' clubs. Some great players come in recenty, a stark contrast to a couple of seasons back when Malpas was signing nobodies!
