    Millwall boss Ian Holloway has dashed Bristol Rovers’ chances of signing Jermaine Easter on loan. Rovers boss Darrell Clarke last week confirmed that an offer of terms had been quoted to Easter’s agent after the player had requested a lunch meeting in Bristol to investigate the possibility of a move closer to his hometown of Cardiff. Holloway, however, this morning told South London newspaper News Shopper, that:

    “Jermaine could have gone out on loan and I’ve not let him go out on loan. We’ve had scouts at the last two games and they all wanted him. Bristol Rovers were one of them, so was Notts County. I told him You’re one of the ones out of contract at the end of the season, get your agent busy because everybody needs to have a job in the summer. He’s responded by scoring two goals in the last two games. I like what he’s doing so he’s back in the fold. Whether he starts, whether he’s on the bench, or whether he’s just travelling with the squad he’s earned the right to be there.”

    Sounds like Ollie told Easter he is not in his plans and to get his agent to find a new club. His agent had done so and scouts have been watching him. Easter has been performing to try and impress a potential new club which has made Ollie think Easter could be useful. So Easter is no longer available for loan. I suspect if his performances drop, Easter may be available in January. Goldberg signing is a quick fix to replace White who left suddenly. His loan ends in a month so DC has a month to convince Ollie and Easter or to find someone else.
