He did okay when given a chance but as always Notts has an inability to work with young talent like this. I am unsure if he will have any sort of a future now at the club.

If he's not going to feature, he's best being loaned out or sold. I don't think this spells the end of his Notts career, if anything it's a better chance to get game time and to be noticed especially if he does well.

Good experience for him, if he can come back and prove himself that would be a credit. If not, no harm done.

[liampie]

hes the type of player notts should be pushing, goalscorer, attacking minded, creative and likes the ball at his feet.

disappointed that he was never given a chance under harry kewell and now neal ardley, its poor business but i hope he does well in the loan spell because clubs will take notice.

With notts i can see this as his way out of the club as they very rarely play players again after loan spells.

[Magic magpie]

Hopefully this is done with the future or next season in mind because he could be a good little player.

Least thats another player off the list.

Not surprised, I think the clubs having to work hard to see players either exit or go out on loan.

I'm suprised a better team didn't want Tom, or Alfreton Town for example. I think some of our lot should be sent to Ilkeston for loans, I don't really care about them being seen as a feeder tem - just give some players experience. Noor Husin should be loaned out in my opinion, he's a good player but his head is in the clouds right now.

Cracking move the lad. Good preparation in case the inevitable happens, we need some players like Tom if we do go down to that forbidden league. 

[cheeky~k8]

We need to loan some out to create abit financial stability but can we please loan out at least duffy.

@Chris AFC Fylde are four league places below us and could be playing in a higher division next season. They have a wealthy backer and may well be able to entice him away from us permanently.

This frustrates me. Crawford hasn't made any impact, but he was highly rated in the Conference last season and there were other League sides chasing him. Surely he must have something to offer us?

The managers generally stuck with the same players, why sign someone they don't intend to play... Its unfair on the player and a waste of wages.

If he signs, he will have wasted the best part of his learning years applying his trade at a very poor standard.

He looked like the kind of player the club needed, young and upcoming but he finds himself frozen out. He looks much better than Noor Husin and Will Patching but they manage to get game time which is odd as they've done nothing all season.

Wasted shirt for Notts, he would have given his all if the chance had come his way but he seemed destined to leave after Harry Kewell came in. I expect his loan spell to turn permanent if I am honest.

If he gets a chance if he returns I think he would do well at this level, the lad needs game time and a manager who will coach him as a professional.
