Most influential loan players

[cher1]

The likelihood of us bringing in someone on loan set me wondering. Who would you say had the most impact during their time at Notts?

Guess Jack Grealish was one of the best, how much difference did he make to our season?

I'd put forward Russell Hoult for starters.

This really although I went first in 1987 when I was 5 so can't really comment on Roeder.

This has had me wondering.....who was Notts first ever loanee? And who was the first Notts player ever to be loaned out? Not counting wartime guest appearances, that is.

It seems that the rule change to allow loans was made in 1966, with a restriction of two per season.

Possible contenders for being the first loanee are John Hulme, a defender who made a few appearances in the early 70s, possibly on loan from Bolton, and a winger called Andy Wilson, who I think might have been on loan from Rotherham. But I’m not sure about either of those, and there may have been others.

Glen (sign him up sign him up) Roeder was just a very good player. who we should have signed but ………,.,

Brett (one greedy b@stard) Angell was also a great loan signing and could have a great signing but ………

influential for the wrong reason(s), but a certain martin kuhl affected our fortunes in the mid-nineties.....

Gary Chapman,

Kick started our season that became the first of a double promotion to the top flight. Did sod all else after we signed him permanently, but god bless the fella.

I'd say Ryan Yates was possibly the most influential. I think that we would have had a good chance of promotion if he had stayed for the full season, because our form dipped after he left. None more so than Jorge Grant, who became a shadow of the player he was with Yates there.

This (IMO) was a massive moment for the club. Pavis sent Kuhl back to Derby after a sending off (away at Barnsley if I recall) without discussing it with the then manager Mick Walker. This directly led to Walker leaving the club, Russell Slade being appointed and us getting relegated from what is now the Championship. We have rarely threatened to get back to that level.

For all the good that Pavis did the club his meddling in team affairs at times let him down and this was no exception.
