Complete madness and the first real thing I would honestly be critical of the club for since the takeover.

Pope could get injured in tonight’s match, for the season, then (if there is no recall clause) we’re stuck with a big gap in quality bringing Darlow or Gillespie in.

Henderson will be back at Man Utd next summer, there is no reported obligation to buy.

Even if we charged 10M for a loan fee (I haven’t seen any claim as to the fee reported though?) and we made up the 2.2 per league place finish if we end up with Darlow in for a spell of the season, where we finish at the end of the season will play a big part in attracting players next summer… they won’t care we should have finished higher but we let out No 2 keeper go out on loan, they’ll see the league position and work out how far from Europe that is, and that’ll be that.

Hope we tell Dub’s he’s got a contract, he needs to suck it up and fight for his place.
