Bring him back and get him out to the national league even if its to a Darlington for half a season, he looked really promising in the 23s

The issue was Killie signed a LB right after they signed Bainbridge which has limited his minutes. From what I got told they didn't expect to be able to sign the other lad so went for Bainbridge instead then got both
He'd be something like 5th or 6th choice, though. We'd see Alese, O'Nien, Hjelde and Hume all get used before him. He'd basically be used like Johnson is - an emergency player who is developing by training with the first team, but is highly unlikely to ever see the pitch in normal circumstances.
Risk you take sending them out I guess, he’ll have still learnt a lot off the pitch/being away from home so not a total waste, if we can get him back and get him regular minutes for the rest of the season that would be ideal
Signed a guy called corrie ndaba who was on loan last season. He's now playing Central midfield and they've got another defender playing as a narrow full back. Kilmarnock are quite route one and Derek mcinnes likes robust players who can head and run. Not sure why we loaned him to them as they play a totally way and he isn't getting any minutes anyway..
Pretty much guaranteed he will be recalled in Jan, on the face of it it wasn't a bad loan move at the time but McInnes isn't exactly known for developing youngsters
I wonder how much was a response to agent/player demands? Think there are often young players who are very keen to get out into men's football (which is to their credit tbf). It may well have been that we sent him out in response to a request. It was noticeable that chatter from the likes of Nixon around Bainbridge perked up last season. My immediate assumption is that this is agent led (as Nixon gets nowt from us directly and nothing else since Mowbray went). Maybe this was about getting a player out that was making noises about their development. Perhaps he'll return with a lot of lessons even if he didn't get much game time?
Is Mepham on loan here because Bournemouth want him to get lots of games with us and develop into a better player. The way we are loaning out some of our players to give them playing time and come back better.
Or, on the other hand, have we got Mepham because he has no future at Bournemouth and he’s something like Ba or Adil here but with less time on his contract.
Do we think we will get him signed up on a permanent and if so, how much, and will it be in January or the summer.

Bournemouth have better CBs already at the club. Mepham is done there
He’s having another decent season but I’d be surprised personally. He’s 31 early next year and we have Isidor, Connolly and Mayenda.
Not this again
In all seriousness though, I wouldn't be surprised at all. We chased him all summer so he's obviously someone we really like and I do think we are lacking a forward who is strong with their back to goal.
All depends on price but we would be nuts not to keep in the loop about Mendy’s availability and price. Isn’t he out of of contract in the summer anyway?
think he would offer something a bit different from our current forward line. mind you, the players we can attract this January are higher than last summer given our good start. Will be interesting to see if we can poach any big fish. Nascimento from Botafogo will be away to Europe at some point and has been linked with big clubs. Could we convince him that regular football in the championship is a good stepping stone to the champions league? How much of the dressing room togetherness would we sacrifice signing such a player? One change I would like to see if a bit of pre-emptive spending. Regardless of whether we go up or not, there will be a lot of money flowing into the club this summer. Might as well spend a significant sum in January if the right deal is available. Probably safer to spend on a British player than a foreigner given our track record of developing young players recently.

After another striker apparently, Mendy rumours starting up again, would like it to be gift orban given Lyon’s financial problems, how we’d fit isidor Connolly mayenda abdullahi plus another in is beyond me like seems overkill unless mayendas future is on the wing?

Who told you that??? Is it true, can you prove it, or is it more of your scout bullshit.
