Now he’s gone (probably permanently eventually) I’m happier than I was originally to reveal that a week into joining us, Maddison contacted my daughter on a dating app and wanted to meet her etc, wisely & luckily (for him) she knocked him back, her words were, she thought he was “fit” 😳 but, he came across as a bit of a knob.
I’m in no way suggesting that had any bearing on Bowyers decision to let him go, but I’m claiming it 😄

He done the same to a girl my mate was seeing and ended up shagging her. Needless to say they aren't seeing each other anymore 

So Maddison has in fact scored more recently, than he's been credited for?

I look forward to seeing 15 different variations of how to spell his name, all of them wrong, on every match thread.

Can’t we just call him DJ???

And sing Hey Boy, Hey Girl - if ever we have spectators again.

Was your mate a charlton fan? That would cut deep if he was 

Yeah, he is a big fan, season ticket. Proper fan. Safe to say he doesn't particularly like him much

Bloody hell. That’s awful. 

He actually wasn't too fussed, not sure he liked her too much. In fact at the MK Dons game he literally shouted at him 'f*ck off Maddison, you shagged my bird'. He took it on the chin, much like her

If she took it on the chin she has got her technique all wrong 😑

I'm a bit miffed about this myself. How on earth are dating apps allowed to operate in a lockdown?

It was last September when we were still allowed out 

According to Twitter it has carried on since. Obviously not entirely buying everything that comes up on twitter, but it matches reports on here.

I have another issue now. In the actually likely scenario all the loanees are fit, who misses out? Ridiculously hard on Shinnie but it's him isn't it? 

not a chance - probably our most complete player when fully fit, could play anywhere in that midfield

Shinnie on a permanent would be my first priority of the summer transfer window

Even in the championship? 

The most heartening thing was who we were linked with and tried to get, the Bournemouth lad, Randall, Kirk, Thomas and DJ.  All promising young talents.  Maybe the finances did not work on many but we are L1 and up against Championship sides for many of them.

I don't know much about the players linked but they strike me as exactly the sort we should target going forwards and whom, with a promotion to the Championship would all become very realistic targets in a Brentford type model.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do these last minute deals work? When and how was a medical done? Swindon's at least 2 hours away. Are there standard contract terms? Any deal involving a 3 year contract usually takes a while to agree all the details. 

they said they were working on it all day so I'm assuming at some point he arrived at Sparrows Lane and was waiting for it all to be done. also, re the medical, Liverpool signed a player from a Club in Germany yesterday, he had his medical in Germany.

Yes, especially I think with loan signings clubs are far less cautious, trusting the other side to do things right...For example Fulham signed Josh Maja on loan yesterday

Parker says Josh Maja has not actually been in the building yet. Due in today. So hard to say where he is in terms of fitness.

I don't know much about any of these players, seen Jaiyesimi a couple of times, Kirk (Crewe) once and know nothing about Randall ( Exeter), in peoples opinion did we sign the best of the three we were reported to have been after ?

Randall is the one I have no idea about. Kirk seems decent, but is left sided, Jaiyesimi gives us a bit more balance being able to play either wing comfortably. 

Shinnie and Millar? - Or would it be Stockley?

Shinnie and Stockley surely, both out of contract in the summer. No chance with the other 3

Doing even 1 would be great, I'd choose Stockley

Has to be Shinnie I would hope.

Certainly wouldn't be Smith.. Maatsen.. Famewo

They're too expensive with wages and we've just re-negotiated over the latter - Millar too would probably be too much of a stretch unless he is out of contract himself this summer

Would Liverpool be prepared to just let him go though

He was the captain at youth level wasn't he? Suspect they have fairly high hopes of hm coming through, at least for cup games etc.
