    And a really good Car Auction place.

    He's not ready for the 1st team, he's a good prospect and so are a lot of the other young lads....

    Rodak is number 1 choice at the moment why not try to give some support and encouragement to the actual players that are picked on match day.

    It is indeed a season long loan.

    I hope we sign rodak at the end of the season as he's already a better keeper that what we have. And in a ideal world bilboe develops into as good a keeper to compete for number 1 shirt.

    I agree that it's probably a good move to send Bilboe and Wiles out on loan as part of their development but, and it's a big but, how many of our players who follow this route come back ready for the first team?
    I can only think of Yates and I'm not sure he's good enough anyway.

    To be honest I don't know why we bother to run a Youth Team.

    A cost that brings no rewards and such is the loan system there's no real need to have one.

    Yes, Huddersfield have come to that conclusion and are going to abandon their academy system because it's simply not cost effective.

    Just checked - I don't think that there were many (any?) Youth/Reserves games scheduled for the Millers over Xmas/New Year anyway, so sending Bilboe out on a short loan does actually make sense

    Brighouse won 1-0 at Skelmersdale today, achieving their first "clean sheet" for a long time. Anybody know if Bilboe played?
