    Ill call this as 'deal done' Sky never normally break cover with rumours especially down at our level, BS about league 2 teams doesn't generate hundreds of clicks!

    I don't if KSN are riding on the crest of sky sports wave but they are saying it's on loan with a view to a permanent deal at the end of the season.

    I wonder if this explains Bayo...

    Does he want to reform the partnership?

    If so, i'd guess we may have one or two lined up to go out the other way ?....cough, cough <whistle>


    maybe danny jackman as part of the bayo deal if it's true ?

    Northampton fans are harking on about them getting Jacko.

    It would make sense with him being out of favour.

    Not sure we want/need Bayo as good as he is.
    It would be at the expense of keds or Burton. I'd sooner keep those.

    But as you say, maybe Danny and/or Keds swap? Hope not.

    I think this is great news as I really want him back and usually Sky have it right when it comes down to football and they will not go an speculate on a smaller story when they are not sure as this would not do much for them.

    So Hoadie, you are basically re-itterating what throwoff said but in much more non-sensical statement? <laugh>

    Does anyone know if it is the 10/11 Mac or the 12/13? I remember the embarrassment of returning Chris Dickson and Bob Taylor too well.
    If it is the original Mac and Coventry are giving him some form of golden handshake this could be good news. The big loser of course would be Birchall who would, ideally head for somewhere like Barnet or Wimbledon. Interesting and it could make financial sense which is what would be needed to make it happen.

    Well at least it being a loan it is not as much of a risk so if he does not set the world on fire then he just goes back and we are a bit upset but if he does recreate his form then I am sure we will sign him.

    If we are doing some business today do you think there will be any movement with the David Wright deal ?

    brb - I assume you're against this loan deal on the basis Cody is over 19 years of age??? Therefore clearly too old to play for Gillingham.

    I had been sitting quietly on the sidelines <laugh>

    The problem as I see it will be fitness. Let us remember MA's words about 100% fitness, I will not go through the list of players this has been applicable to this season at the club. So where does Cody fall into this category?

    I am more than happy to give Cody a go but fear we may be trying to relive the past. Also if Cody cannot make a Coventry League One starting line up, how does this fit in with MA's job of building a side of L1?

    I can only guess our set up is different and MA feels that Cody has a role to play within it. So many questions eh and I've not even aired a view on the Bayo rumours yet!
