Good Afternoon redmen,

Hope you are well,

Sorry the loan update is late there just isn't enough hours in the day!

A weekend to forget for Wilson and Hull as they lost 1-0 to Sheffield Wednesday.
Wilson did however score in their previous mid week game, the 5-0 win over Burton and the young Welshman was voted the Hull player of the month.

Chirivella continues to impress for Willem II as they beat NAC Breda 2-1. It was Chirivella's 27th full outing this season for the dutch team.
Willem II are almost safe for the season.

Markovic started a second game in succession for Anderlecht as they beat Club Brugge 1-0.
Hopefully he starts to settle and kick starts his once promising career.

Arroyo and Mallorca B's won again! This time a 4-0 demolition of Esporles.
This takes his unbeaten run since joining the club to 10 games.

Origi started on the bench for Wolfsburg as they hosted Ausburg. With the score at 0-0 he came on as a second half substitute and missed a glorious chance to win them the game!
It finished 0-0.

Sturridge came on for the final few minutes to help west Brom beat Man U. :)

Grujic was an unused sub as Cardiff got back to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Norwich.

Flannaghan played so poorly in the midweek defeat to Millwall that he was dropped from the squad for the weekend match against Burnley!

Ejaria was an unused sub as Sunderland drew 1-1 with Reading.

Matty Virtue and Notts County continued their promotion chase with a 3-1 win over Colchester.

Chester's relegation was confirmed this week with a 3-2 defeat to Boreham Wood. Andy Firth continues to deputise in goal which will be great experience for the youngster.

Keita was rested after a busy period and only made a late sub appearance as RBL drew 1-1 Werder Bremen.

Kent and Ojo did not make the match day squads, Whelan and Awoniyi both missed out through illness and Connor Randall and Hearts had the week off.

And there's your lot redmen.

Cheers Carra.
What happened to Flannagan, I remember him playing under Kenny, he looked like he would be a solid defender for a years to come.

He came into a side winnng games for his first decent run in the side which is always easier to do. I think the fact he was a scouser and gave 110% effort made the fans warm to him.
I actually read an article at the end of that season that he had been beaten by the attacker on average per game more than any other player in the prem which ring alarm bells to me (although stats can be misleading)
I actually think fans may have been a little blinkered? i for one thought he looked a god full back but the fact he can’t make the Bolton squad points to him maybe not being as good as we thought he was.

{Ed001's Note - injuries and a poor attitude are his problem. He would rather go out on the lash and have a good time than put in a few extra hours training and then going home to rest and recuperate. He could have been good but the desire just wasn't there when problems hit.}

Ed01 - interesting that! I thought his attitude is what got him the opportunity in the 1st team with us. Has he just given up? Why would he do that when he was building a good reputation for himself?

{Ed001's Note - he had a good attitude to get there, but the injury changed it. He was a kid who was unable to train or go to work etc each day, but had lots of money and free time. The injury put him at a low ebb mentally and he was bored. It is a very common problem in football and why so many end up addicted to stuff, as they are not properly cared for or educated to deal with boredom or any other aspect of their own mental health and wellbeing.}

Injuries have taken their toll on Flanagan and think we should release him in the summer.

Sooner he's out the better, he's a fool to himself. I was actually very excited about him at one point but he blew it, if he'd of got his head down and worked harder he'd of been something today. But then we had the issues the other month with him beating on his girlfriend, no respect from me, I'll be glad to see the back of him.
