Don't remember that but I assume these were both about getting match fitness; I picked examples where players were sent out early in their careers to get a bit of experience and then recorded 100+ appearances for us.

As I said a short list, especially if you compare to those players who went on loan and didn't establish themselves in the 1st team. It's even shorter if you only consider loans made in the last decade.
I guess my point was "if you find yourself on loan, there is a high chance you will be out of the door soon after" as these will testify (non-exhaustive list of loans in the last 5 years).

Or thane wrote:So the Okoro thing about keeping him if both parties agree, seems to be for a possible season long loan, rather than an actual keep him permanently deal from what i've read. Which would make more sense, as his game time would be quite limited here. Where if he impresses there he might play week in week out. Although i would rather have him on a rolling month to month loan, rather than just seeing him off for the whole season.
Surely though ANY deal - be it loan, permanent or whatever - only ever happens if all parties agree to it, so I'm not sure why that needs to be written into an agreement. But hey ho, let's just hope it works out for the best.

Wasn't Briers threatened with a loan move to Barrow?

I don't think in Lineham's case it was for experience. He had 5 years / 70 games at Hull FC prior to joining us and was 25. His loan period was 3 games.
Not sure who to trust now a random forum or the no nonsense head coach. All jokes aside i hope Fitz is fully fit not just for us as a team but himself and family!
