As they seem to have started already, this should be an ongoing thread until August
Seny Dieng - Reims who are mid table in Ligue 1 reportedly interested
Conor Masterson - Gillingham, where he spent the 2nd half of the season; are confident of signing him, but Exeter are also interested |  |

Blimey we're desperate if we want Tim back. The best loan of last season? Yep, but I don't think he'll be shouting to loud about it.
I'd prefer a big fat zero loans this season. Maybe, just maybe stop trying develop other clubs players and concentrate on players who actually want to play in the blue and white hoops. |  | | |

Just the right amount of strident. Nice. |  | | |

Just been on the Official Site and looked at "First Team Squad". Can't understand why anyone would be applauding anyone leaving, we actually don't have any footballers! There are only 21 players listed under "first team". This includes 4 Goalkeepers, only one of whom is any good and he is clearly going to leave. Of our 6 defenders one has never played for us, and we have Osman Kakay as first choice Right Back backed up by Aaron Drewe. Of our two first choice centre halves one managed, I think, 15 appearances last season and the other was signed as back-up. We have no left back back up, even the club doesn't acknowledge Travelman. Our 8 Midfielders include Faisal Betache, who has barely played, but this is our strongest area. It is possible we can field a credible midfield, although everyone knows Johannsen and Albert are finished, Dozzell wasn't ever good enough and Richards has hardly set pulses racing. We have three forwards. One who is clearly leaving, one who is 34 and one who has never scored for us. Sell two of Dykes, Dieng, Chair and there simply isn't a squad that could compete at National League level, let alone the Championship. Really this is the brutal truth and this is where Hoos and Ferdinand have brought us. We have no money, stuck at Loftus Road after systemic failure to move ground, and we need to keep everybody and sign between 6 and 8 players to have the faintest chance of survival. Good luck Gareth. | | | |

Be assured of one thing, we will sign plenty of players. As Dave Mc always points out, it’s what we do… | | | |

Sorry, brain fade between site and Forum. I meant Dixon-Bonner. Pity Bettache left, I thought he looked useful | | | |

It's a funny old saying 'boiled my piss'. Can't say I've ever tried doing it. Has anyone had a go? |
It comes from the brewing method used by skol. | | | |

Every team that competes successfully in this league has loanees. Burnley regularly fielded 3 for much of the season.
Nice sentiment, but to think we can develop our youngsters and still compete is frankly living in cuckoo land I’m afraid. | | | |

I know that its totally unachievable from a wages point of view blah blah blah and you'll all laugh at me but Kent and Morelos are both free. | | | |

You're right, that did make me laugh. If only we could afford/attract/develop such players. |  | | |

If he were prepared to return then that would demonstrate some character for a 19-year-old. Either that, or he's a glutton for punishment. | | | |

Does a seem a weird one to me . Loan won’t be cheap as I’m sure villa will want cash to loan hi. To us , we are skint so does that mean chairs going to villa on a perm and we get Tim on loan as part of the sweetener ? |  |

I think it’s just about safe to admit it now. I voted for Tim as our young player of the year. |  | | |

Tim won’t get a game at Villa though. They on the verge on signing Tielemans and they play a similar position I believe |  | | |

I doubt they'll go for Lyndon now. Grangers it is then. |  |

No way Tim is coming back here, would be a crazy move for him. He was referring to himself as ‘we’ coming back from injury, not coming back to the madhouse. | | | |

We need to get over this.
The benefit is having a good player.
Burnley had FIVE.
You can pick ther wrong loans, and that's one thing, but the vast majority of teams want and need loans. |
Shame we picked the wrong ones………again.
Burnley’s propelled them to the title, ours almost relegated us. | | | |

Arguably the minor contributions we got from Roberts and Richards "almost relegated us", but Tim, Laird and Lowe contributed in varying degrees to keeping us up. | | | |

I doubt we were ever in with a chance to borrow players that went to Burnley. |  |
