Dale request Lillis extension
Dale have requested an extension to Josh Lillis's loan period with the club hoping to keep him at Spotland until the end of the season.
However, Scunthorpe are a little hesitant about agreeing to the deal. Manager Ian Barraclough wants to speak to Lillis before agreeing to anything, and has insisted that he will demand a 24 hour recall on the deal.
Scunthorpe were caught short after an injury to number one keeper Joe Murphy forced them to bring in Tony Warner on loan as they were unable to recall Lillis.
Lillis has been a big hit at Spotland this season, and has won a number of plaudits for his performances over the season so far in which he has been an ever present for Dale.
This is Lillis's second spell with Dale after a brief loan period during the 2009-10 Promotion campaign saw him make one appearance.
What to read next:
A point gained for the Swans : Allen isn’t dead Baggies ! Just over 14,600 attended this game at the Swansea.com. Take away the visitors support and around 13,000 Swans fans were allegedly at this game. Season ticket holders are always included whether there or not and the ground look very bare. If there was eleven thousand home fans at this game I would have been surprised. That’s a good few thousand who have stayed away this afternoon. And well down to what we could have expected on the last Saturday before the majority return to work on Monday.
Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion, plus Villa winger out of reach This morning we focus on a game which has lost itself to what we can call ‘football fatigue’ Especially after some of the extraordinary fall out after Luke Williams press conference yesterday afternoon. Unbelievable nonsense on one of the other websites, faceless, nameless and very obsessive.
Swansea City : The Luke saga drags on and on : What’s next today ? As the many thousands of views dictate on this website we continue to report matters of interest as we did yesterday morning on Luke Williams. A fairly concise and pertinent piece by our site owner. I suppose what every writer relies upon is for the reader to actually understand what is being said.
Swansea City : Does Luke know what he is doing to our club ?There has been much comment and it has to be said bar a few abusive idiots on social media a lot of frustration on those platforms regards Harry Darling and Luke Williams. Much of this brought about by the reluctance of Luke Williams to just clarify his position at Swansea City.
