According to what I was told today he's coming to Rovers on loan for the rest of the season , source is usually pretty reliable
Left sided central defender .
REDS SIGN JACK SHEPHERD - News - Barnsley Football Club https://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/news/20232/july/reds-sign-jack-shepherd/

A left sided centre half. I will be surprised if this is true based on our signing of Jay McGrath yesterday.
-
Harrogate after him as well, probably go there now we have signed a left sided central defender. If he does come it will be a full house Senior, Bailey, Faulkner, Wood, Anderson, Olowu,
McGrath, Rowe, Flint, Nixon, and Shepherd for a full house, not bad that in one season if it comes off and still the majority of the transfer window to go if none come up to scratch and we haven't decided who is good enough.
-
This is the name I heard last week as well, again from someone very reliable. Whether it still happens or was our back up plan to McGrath will soon see.

Heard about this a few days ago but can’t see it happening now we’ve signed McGrath, also heard we were trying to get Jalo aswell but again, with Carty signing and it now being likely that Mo will stay I don’t think that will happen.

GM has said he would like another attacking player, which I think we will need if we are going back with 4-3-3. We can't be classing Taylor as an option sadly if we do get any contribution from him great that's a bonus but we can't rely on him as an option so need another attacker.

The thing with Jalo is from what I've seen with the lad he's not come to terms as yet with coming off the bench and impacting the game , we are chasing a play off place and our HC has to deliver that place as a minimum and we need every player to contribute .
When he's started games in the EFL Trophy and the FA Cup he's done very well , he's done well in the context of those kind of games mind and he's more or less got to the stage where development football is a bit too easy for the lad , smashed in four goals against Tottenham before christmas .
The lad's 18 years old with a huge amount of potential but that's all he's got in my opinion but he needs games .
If we were in the middle of the table and not going anywhere this season I'd say throw him in over here but that's not the case and Collins needs to get results and look after his job .
There's probably not a right lot in this if it comes off for Rovers in my opinion , Rovers are developing him for us without much chance of it becoming permanent .
Easy for me to say but I think playing up top with Ironside would massively benefit Jalo as we've nobody up top like that over here .
Physically Jalo could handle league two , he's a strong little bugger but how much there would be in this deal to benefit Rovers is debatable .
