    What worries me is if we agree to him coming in on loan with conditions attached; i.e. he starts every game if fit. Imagine if he turns out to be like Miller and we have to play him as one of our attacking options in every game.

    I certainly won't be amused if this lad is brought in to replace a 20 goal a season man. Putting our promotion hopes on a 17yr old kid in his first loan? Its very, very dangerous.

    Sure, he could turn out to be a Burke or Cullen but equally he could be a Seedorf or Miller.

    Its the cheap option if it happens I think that is obvious.

    That is another situation we could find ourselves in, not for the first time, rumour had it those were the terms we took Simon Eastwood on from Huddersfield Town during Stuarts first time at the club, and you couldn't blame the loaning club asking for that sort of condition if we want to take one of their players especially if they are covering his salary.
    We've seen two games now that were meaningful the game Bolton in the cup and Colchester yesterday, to be honest I saw nothing from either of those two sides to worry us that they will be the teams we need to be measuring our performance against, we have all followed the closed season and the comings and goings at Valley Parade and accept we are lacking in certain areas, 2/3 decent signing could make a massive difference certainly more pace up top, Sutton will offer more competition once his suspension is complete, not all doom and gloom.

    There should be no doom and gloom at all we won at Bolton and drew with Colchester who we haven’t beaten at VP for 38 years according to the T&A.
    They had the best defence in the league last year and they looked tight again yesterday. A fraction difference and we would have won 1-0 we do need a couple of players and they will arrive soon

    Nixon stated it in the paper but didn't mention it on Twitter so must be a weak chance of Agard. Hiwula still doing the rounds but I think it's fans clutching at straws.

    Where is Hiwula doing the rounds? Last I saw he was Portsmouth bound.

    Problem is for many fans Park you have been saying 'soon' since early August - we are now in mid September!

    17 year old lad? Wouldn't it make more sense to bring a couple of young lads from Palace in that case, like with Holmes and Doyle?

    Seems a bit young to trek up north at that age

    Apparently according to twitter Hiwula has agreed a deal somewhere, however where that is, hasn't been revealed as of yet.

    It possibly is only us fans who think Jordy could return and add pace, but as I posted Stuart had him in the nearly season and tried to get him on loan the following season from Town but Fleetwood out bid us with regards his salary.
    So to me you have to think it has to be his wages because with regards his playing time since he left us most has been at a higher level so football wise he's not fallen away as Devante has done so why would Stuart not want him back at Valley Parade and looks like it might be loans from now on in, that's only my take on things.

    Is it Kieran Agard who's with MK Dons, who's the Gordon lad ?.

    Kymani-Gordon is the young lad from Palace. Stuart has tried time and time again to sign Agard and obviously rates him but I can't see it happening this window; Agard is currently out with a knee injury and we really need someone to hit the ground running with an incoming striker.

    Thanks for the info, your dead right the last thing we need is a player coming back from injury and were nursing him back to fitness, especially a striker you're correct we need a player fully fit and at the top of his game even if it does turn out to be kids.

    Our fans on Twitter looking embarrassing tbh. None of 'in the know' accounts have confirmed it, yet all City fans seems to think he's inbound to us.

    Rooney never went out on loan though so there's no real comparison.. if you can find an example of a 17 year old striker with limited u23s experience, zero first team experience who went out on loan to a lower league club and scored the goals to fire them into the play-offs or automatics then I'm all ears to hear that comparison.

    Was Agard mentioned as an alternative to this young lad or in addition to?
