The Mirror has reported today that Danny Simpson & Lee Martin is headed out on loan to Royal Antwerp.
Source: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/topsto...name_page.html Does leave the reserves pretty bare. Sounds like a few of the youth team players will be stepping up. |

Remember Chris Backhouse my son played for the U16 last season before being released and ending up at Sunderland. He'll be in the Sunderland Youth cup squad and hopefully play and show why Manchester should not have released him.

i don't fancy this arragement, the standard of Tweede Klasse is not very good, though Andy Welsch will be helpful for the developing of Adam, Lee and Richie.
hopefully the trio can come back as improved players. |

Hope that Adam Eckersly can quickly progress to first team squad....I cringe whenever I see O Shea on the pitch at full back (and even more at centre midfield). this lad seems pretty quick, gets stuck in & doesnt lumber around like Sheasy. Would reckon that he can be a better understudy to Heinze rather than O SHea

I hope Lee Martin will prove his talent in Antwerp, and then get a chance in our first team next season..
But is it better to play in the second best Belgium league, than in the Championsship.?? I don't think so. |

He became the 3rd youngest player to play for the 1st team in the clubs history, also made it into the england youth side, and hes only 16. Hes a striker, a fan of the club, and also posts on a leicester message board on occasions! As to then type of player, have not a clue, but like any good young player with great talent, fearless.

There is also a possibility of a fourth United youngster joining Antwerp. This is best news about the Antwerp - United link for years. It shows United are serious. Van Aker (head coach) is good with young players and had a great relationship with Higginbotham, O'Shea and Chadwick when they were at Antwerp (he left for Austria and returned at start of season). Antwerp's recent results are good (unbeaten in five) after crap start. |

There has been a lot of speculation that Northampton Town are going to be signing a 'powerful young striker' on loan from us until the end of the season. This has been reported in the local paper of the area and they are normally accurate with their stories. They have been reporting this for a few weeks.
From this, the only people I can realy think of who fit the bill are Blake (although the 2nd Div seems below his level), Cooper or Heath (although I would not call him powerful). The only good things in my book is that the Cobblers are my second team (my family are from there) and also that the do try to play good football (and are one of the few in that division who do). |
