Cobi Brett Williams is on his way to Northampton on loan.


Considering he only got 3 starts and scraps totalling 422 league minutes for Rotherham, 2 league goals wasn't too bad

Didn't realise how bad Northampton were doing. 1 win in 18 and bottom of the league

Can't see how that's going to get Brett's confidence up!

That he is going to league 1 and not league 2 like most of the players we loan out at his age is a encouraging sign (I reckon)

I reckon it's encouraging that he's going to a League One club like the most of our younger players.

"most" don't, the ones that did are the ones that are still around though.

Church did L2 and L1 and couldn't hit a barn door at either level, and now look at him... not hitting a barn door at Championship level. Who ever said he wasn't consistent?

I like D'Ath. A goalscoring midfielder. Just what we need. I hope he really shines and gets a look in next season along with Obita.

Never seen the guy play but I hear people rate him. Four key things!

What's his composure like?

What's his touch like?

What's his pass like?

Is he like Gylfi?

Maguire
RG30 Angus MacDonald


Do we have any intention of sending out Jock McHaggis on loan too, or is he staying in Reading for now?


Nah he'll be staying - he's partnering new loanee from Glasgow Redskins Hawkeye The Noo..........

He scored something like 19 in 23 last season, and he did well the season before that as well. I'd say on that basis he's pretty composed. I guess we'll learn a lot more from his loan at Yeovil, but I think this lad has a big future ahead of him.

Good, good, good, not really. As far as I can tell he's like Sidwell with class (and no tackling ability), excellent at timing his runs into the area rather than excellent at distance shooting. He isn't a great set piece taker either.

Yes, poor bloke managed to loop it straight upward and onto the roof of the net when I think all he had to do was leave it alone.

Obita starts for Barnet, first league start for him?
D'ath starts his first game for Yeovil as well.

Was that Obita with the brilliant 30 yard free kick hit the crossbar?
