He's still only 19, plenty of time to improve. Realistically he isn't going to start in front of Johnson, Hawkins, Oates or Bowery so a loan is ideal. He needs more experience at first team level playing week in week out.

Good luck to him but doesn’t that say a lot of the standard of football north of the border?

You have to ask what the point of our Youth system is.

Current yield: 0.
You've got to go there and come back, to know where you've been.

Yes it is, not surprised he has gone out on loan but very surprised at where he has ended up.

Clough is looking for a central defender. Hopefully he will get one. He won't be bringing in someone for Knowles.

Personally I think it says a lot about Jimmy. The fact at such a young age he’s prepared to move such a long way say a lot about his ambition.

If he plays and scores goals in numbers it will do wonders for his confidence on and off the pitch and indeed his career.

Good luck Jimmy

I agree. And at such a young age we shouldn't be writing Jimmy off as a future Stags player. Good luck young man.

When does his contact end? That will be 2 seasons spent on loan and I would guess he won't be coming back.

Good luck Jimmy.
