No my PC is not on its side. My original photo was sideways, and I turned it round to use it on Twitter but I am trying to upload a new one for you all.

Unfortunately, I did try to delete my original post when I placed it on your views and that is why it is incomplete.. . No matter, the loan system is ruining the game. Not just for our club, but now it appears that the goalkeeper for Atletico Madrid is a Chelsea loanee and will not play if they are drawn together.
This probably applies if they are drawn together in the final as well. . I suppose that saying of "he who dies with the most toys, wins" applies to football players as well...

I agree the loan system as it stands is doing the game damage allowing the big clubs to buy up players then loan them to the poorly off. It used to be tightly policed and useful to cover injuries etc but now it's being entirely abused. It's also a sham for us. When Freedman talks today about getting the play right now the players understand it how useful will that be next season when most of them won't even be here? Why not at least ensure some continuity with those players who most probably will? For my money those that won't will be Juke, Mason, Chungy, Hutton, Mini Davvo, Knight, Ream, Mears, Eagles and Knight. What's left isn't worth a light anyway apart from Wheater and Boggy. The younger players haven't had a chance so they'll come in cold at best and we've precious little money to bring in quality. Sorry but for me Freedman has totally failed in every respect and next season is just as much if not more, a lottery than this year.

Well Knight came up twice but I think we'll put out the stops to sign Juke, Mini Davo isnt going anywhere, Ream at the moment is just agent talk, I wouldnt be surprised if Chungy is still here given his recent form, and one of Knight or Eagles will probably still be here too, I wouldnt be surprised if Hutton came too as his club is desperate to get rid of him off the wage bill and the lad seems keen to play given all his recent loans. So I reckon about five of those ... time will tell

Freshly copied and pasted:
The 20-year-old has made sporadic appearances for Bolton's first team since stepping out of their academy system.
An inability to hold down a regular role, due in part to injury struggles, convinced manager Dougie Freedman that a spell away from the Reebok Stadium would be beneficial to all concerned.
He has been proved correct, with Vela impressing at Meadow Lane for a side scrapping for their Sky Bet League One lives.
Another youngster, Sanmi Odelusi, is also catching the eye in the third tier at MK Dons, and Bolton's U18s coach David Lee is tipping both men to be knocking on Freedman's door when they return to their parent club.
He told the Bolton News: "It is nice to see Josh doing well at Notts County.
"Without his injury this season, I am sure he would have had more of an impact in the first team.
"He has struggled to get regular senior football because of that and this loan will do him the world of good.
"It's a chance for him to prove himself, and I have every confidence he will do that and benefit the club when he comes back.
"The loan system is fantastic for younger players like Josh and Sanmi, who are out at present.
"It is tough at that level down the leagues and if these youngsters can do it there, it will give them the hunger to succeed at the Reebok when they return."

I think that the loan system is a positive. It gives the youngsters a chance to toughen up and the first team a chance to make up for injuries, a loss of form and the manager a chance to look at how prospectives signings might fit in.
Juke is of course the stand out this season. Without the loan system we would never have found him. I don't think that Eaves or Odelusi will make it and Beckford is too in and out so he would be a big loss if he's not here next season. Vela is now on the verge and I wonder if DF has thoughts on the likes of Clough stepping up to take Mason's place. We can forget about him as he will be involved with Cardiff as they try and get back into the Prem. I'm less concerned about defenders as I think they are easier to find.
