Loanwatch 2025-26

I reckon there's a very good chance that O'reilly gets recalled in Jan and we look for a club a level or 2 up from Crewe, Same with Munroe as well.

Where's he from, Carrickfergus?

The loan might re-invigorate Bailey like it has done for Buendia.

I was thinking/hoping for that too

Ditto.

Although I think the omnipresent concern about PSR/ FFP makes it difficult to bring him back just to potter about.

He got a fat new contract on the back of his upturn in form in Autumn/Winter 2023.

If he delivers anywhere close to that output it's a no brainer. But if he's doing his dying swan routine 2/3 times a match and delivering no goals or assists as per last season that's a substantial wage allocation chewed up which could be better utilised elsewhere.

I have a feeling that's why the club were open to Martinez going last summer n'all. One of the highest earners, but consistent signs he had lost some of his lustre.

We can't afford to carry high earners out of form for extended periods of time. Yanited and some of the other shitebag clubs prob can.
