Loan clubs never do. The clubs will have come to some agreement percentage wise no doubt. It frees a space up though for a possible sighting .

Hopefully yes and it gives him game time and keeps him fit. Surprised he’s dropped to that level I thought he could do a job, if not for us but at a higher level than Northern Premier.

Watching his video on the Bamber Bridge twitter feed he says he is at Bamber Bridge for the forseeable.

When he signed my mate whos a PNE fan described him as a speed boat without a driver, think we ended up with an abandoned dinghy on a lazy river but thats the gamble with those dropping down the leagues I suppose

Your mate must have a selective memory.
Ask him about the winner v Rovers when they were 2 0 down and won 3 2,he got 2.Championship goal of the month.
Or his first goal at Dumpdale v Reading, again C G O T M and he got 2.
Was also Championship player of the month more than once when at Preston and listed as one of the quickest players in the world.
Sadly we got him when the tank was almost empty.

Can he take Jackson with him?

He literally couldn’t make a 5 yard pass tonight

Tonight.
Last season.
Ever.

Said it all along, Jackson is one of the very worst BAFC players in a generation.

I thought Harper had a decent game but he just doesn’t seem able to last a full match at the intensity needed. Earing has been a total waste why on earth we extended his contract…
Jackson came on and took a poor corner and didn’t do a lot else, him and Smith in particular we needed to move on but I’m guessing couldn’t.
Smith contributed his standard yellow card a few tackles and precious little else on the ball. Not good enough.

Against my better judgement I resorted to alcohol for comfort after last nights defeat.
This morning I wake up hungover and the realisation that little has changed.
We have too many players who fall short of the required standard even at this level and its going to be another long season.
But we live in hope.C'mon Barra!

Edit.
Very hungover.
Wrong thread.....
