Of course loan moves count. It's an indicator of a players experience, ability or temperament. In this case temperament seems to be the case, if you take the time to read his Wiki page (yes I know, it's trial by Wiki) you will see that several times his attitude is questioned, he even mentions it himself "In a 2018 interview, Crowley admitted that his inability to handle being left out of the team caused a problem: "I started to fall out with people because I wasn't playing. I was getting on the gaffer's nerves and he just said 'You have got to go'." He has moved around so much for a reason.
Don't get me wrong, I wish he had stayed and become a friggin Notts legend, he's that good, but he decided it was time for him to put NCFC behind him.
