http://www.twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-news/23984/hewitt-joins-gills Young Elliot Hewitt joins league 1 Gillingham on a months loan... It seems Mick is allowing players to leave on short term deals ready to come back for the christmas busy period... possibly asking them to prove themselves worthy before the January window opens so a good opportunity for these lads (Marriott, Hewitt, Woody & maybe others) to prove they don't need replacing Would be happy to see him get some game time in L1 and help his development. It's a shame he isn't getting those opportunities here but a month of game time can only be good for him and the fact that Skuse was used at RB t'other day shows we do have alternative cover in that position if we need it
This is good for us imo. The lad is 19 so still very young and has got a lot of potential. Hopefully he'll shine in L1 and get his confidence up. Much like Marriot, I think it's good that he's gone to a league maybe a little below his level. Hopefully he'll be player of the month and come back beaming. It's nice to see our youngsters going out on loan and getting game time.

"Hewitt, ***an and Mousinho all sounded very good and made all the difference. Looks like our possession Stats might go up quite a bit with these in the team...."
