    World governing body FIFA feel the loan window poses a danger to the sporting integrity of the competition and from next season, Football League clubs will have to move into line with those in the Premier League, who are only permitted to make signings during the bi-annual transfer windows.
    Clarke said:
    "It certainly will have an affect on our clubs at our level. We'll probably have to start a season with a bigger squad than we have done in the last few seasons. If you all of a sudden get four or five injuries in a couple of weeks the emergency loan safety net will not be there to compensate for that. What it boils down to is that we will have two months of the season to get our squads in good shape. If you are planning ahead and getting things put in place early enough, though, I don't see how it will be much different. You get your squad sorted in the summer and then you get a chance after Christmas to make adjustments and strengthen where necessary. I'm happy that I will be able to spend more of the weeks and months in between the two transfer windows working with and developing the players I have already got. When you are able to bring in emergency loans it is tempting to keep looking for that quick-fix and you also spend an awful lot of time on the phone. I've always felt that time could be spent better elsewhere."

    Some Premier League managers have aired concerns that the end of the emergency loan window will make it difficult for some of their young prospects to gain senior-team experience.
    Clarke said:
    "I can understand that argument, of course, but the development of a Premier League club's young players is not my concern. The rules are changing and they have to be adhered to so the Premier League clubs will just have to find ways to work around or send young players out for longer periods of time. I think the loan window benefits the young player and the club he is loaned from more than it does the one who takes him, but having to do longer-term deals may make it more beneficial all-round. The way the system is changing may persuade me to look into getting two or three players on season-long loans in order to adapt the way we recruit in line with the change. The biggest beneficiaries of the change will probably be the younger players who have come through your own ranks will get more opportunities when it isn't so easy to go out and get somebody else's players."

    We have a chance of increasing our squad size now that we have new owners but some of the clubs who have smaller crowds than we do will struggle, and if the premier clubs are worried about their young players getting game time maybe they can let their players come to English clubs instead of sending them abroad on loan or will they use this to get their u21s playing in the lower leagues

    For me the big problem is that young players will be less able to go out on loan and get some experience of playing proper first team football.

    That U21 stuff is like playing in a testimonial - they don't learn much playing in that.

    Then its down to the parent club to either...

    1) bed the youngsters in to the 1st team to give them 1st team football and experience like Arsenal has with Iwobi.
    2) loan youngsters out for the whole season or during transfer windows.

    <ok>

    If they loan them to league 1 and 2 clubs it will teach them how to look after themselves because they wont have so much time on the ball as they do in the higher divisions
