Another CB has come in on loan for an initial month. Played a lot of games for Harrogate since he moved there as a kid from Barnsley. Not played much football of late as coming off a double hernia operation back end of last year.
Harrogate fans rate him as a few stated he would be starting for them in league two if he had more football under his belt. That’s the 4 CB’s we always said we needed for competition.
24yr old, 6ft.
“I’m a centre-half. I just want to head the ball, clear it, win tackles and play a bit as well. It’s going to be healthy competition. It’s something that you need at a football club, which is good. It’s going to make everyone play better and want to be in that starting eleven.”
“I’m fine now. I’ve been training for six or seven weeks now, so I feel really good and ready to go.”
Harrogate fans seem to rate him. Played all the but one or two of their games in their promotion from National league and started twice at Wembley for them. Can play RB at a push but is primarily a CB.
According to their lot they expected him to play in their first team at league two level but because he got that injury he’s not featured. Makes a change to have 4 CB’s in the squad after having just Taft and Boyce for as long as we have.
I don’t expect Taft to feature anymore now and wouldn’t be surprised if Boyce is dropped if Everton and Smith play half decent.
I’m not a fan of one month loans. They almost certainly are made available by the parent club in order to get minutes into an unfit player. They would no doubt be guaranteed playing time. So gimme either properly signed, or at least six months if loaned.
