Mentions Kanu potentially going out on loan depending on how Leaburn is getting on
Well Hylton still at the club so give him 6 month contract and send Kanu out
Only have to compare their records last season to see Kanu would offer a lot more on the pitch than Hylton.
But what’s the point of Kanu being 5th choice we might as well use Hylton as 5th choice and allow Kanu to get more playing time .. surely makes sense
We don’t need Hylton when Ahadme, Godden, Campbell, Aneke, Leaburn and Dixon would still be ahead of him if we loan out Kanu. He’d be 7 or 8th choice which is a waste of budget.
But at the moment we don’t know if Leaburn will have any set backs so we need Hylton as cover it’s precaution
Other than in a coaching role I cannot see any reason why we need Hylton. I'd rather use any money we have on bringing in someone else.
Wouldn't bother with Hylton , felt more like a mate helping NJ out for preseason than anything serious. We've got Casey and Mbick we can use in the Bristol Street Motors Trophy and no one is going to have 6/7 senior strikers on the books. Would rather the budget was used where we need it.
Casey and Mbick no where near ready first team yet .. we have no need to throw them in the deep end this season these two has could do with loans to Nat league or Nat League South … can never understand why we don’t set up agreement with Welling to send our younger players too ? for the next stage of their development
If you'd been following Welling over the past few years then you'd understand why.

Interesting final paragraph.
He was sought after by several clubs in several countries, his agent Kevin Cowan said last month.
Cowan, of International Dymension, had said Dixon had offers from “Major League Soccer, there was some interest from clubs in Europe, places like Cyprus, Portugal, Belgium, just to name a few destinations.”
Personally think it would be a big risk to loan DK to a L2 club, puts a lot of pressure on the remaining forwards to stay fit especially considering Miles is likely out until Oct and wont be straight back into playing 90 mins, Godden has had a hamstring niggle, Ahadme had an injury in pre-season, Chuks is Chuks and TC isn't even a striker.
Are people forgetting we can have a termination clause so he can come back if lads get injured? Seems a no brainer for me.
Don’t think the end of august counts as end of loan season? If it doesn’t we can always wait for few weeks to see how Godden comes through his injury and how Miles gets on? I agree that if DK not going to get serious minutes surely he would learn tricks of the trade quicker by going out on loan?

For NL you’re right but for L1/2 it’s the same deadline

Oh ok thanks didn’t realise that……. got some serious loan business to get done by next weekend then

EFL loans can only be recalled in a transfer window, you can’t add a clause to recall outside of that other than in the NL and below.

My understanding of this is his agent acted how an agent should act. He thought of the player and the player's welfare before the money. We were not necessarily offering the most money to him but we did push hardest and we did offer the clearest pathway. The security of a 4 year deal suits everyone too.
I've been excited about this one for a little while because I've been told he's a real breath of fresh air on the pitch and he has also done some amazing stuff on the training ground.
Let's give him a bit of time to settle in and then see how this pans out
Bromley feels like the place to send him to if you're going to loan him. A few familiar faces, a great coach, nice and local and gets to learn off goal machine Michael Cheek

Perfect fit, some posters can even keep supporting Bromley as their second team that way
From Gallagher’s transfer, we will get £180,000 as a solidarity contribution. We will also receive compensation for the cost of his training and education for a season, but I can’t be bothered to calculate that yet.
Can I ask how the solidarity contribution is arrived at, £180,000 seems an amazing figure for a player who graced our first team for about four and a half months.

This whole forum is basically opinions on the team etc.

(In my opinion) Kanu should be playing in front of TC :-)
