Spicer Going

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

To Leyton Orient for the rest of the season.  No surprise that he's going really.

Source?

[northern soul]

Only mentioned as a possible deal, not confirmed.Sky Sports Transfer Centre

Another one off the payroll?

Could be an interesting summer.

Right, thats Heffs, Guy, and Spicer out on loan, so who`s coming in then before 5pm?

Wouldn't surprise me if we didn't bring anyone in.

We're safe and after the last 2 games probably won't make the playoffs. Would a loan signing be a wise investment? Or would SOD put square pegs in round holes or even give a couple of youngsters a go for the sake of 7 games?

Wonder if this is the last we'll see of Spicer? Could be argued he hasn't really kicked on after last year but then he started the season in a deeper role before Oster established himself and never really got chance to play his more advanced role as Shiels started the season so well. Certainly played a big part in last seasons great run though.

It could mean that Fairhurst (if fit) gets his ass on the bench again. Let's hope so anyway.

I wouldn`t either, but this would be an ideal time to bring someone in that we may be making a move for in the summer, a sort of try before you buy thing

Very good point, hadn't realised it was loan deadline day.

I also don't think we'll see anyone in today, suspect Spicer's gone out to cover JET's wages until the end of the season??

[The Red Baron]

Was just going to say, if we extend JET and Mutch I can't see the need to bring anyone else in.

I did wonder whether any more might be going out on loan- maybe one of the 'keepers and either Dumbuya or Fairhurst (to assist with their development).

I think we already have Filo

[Dr Fundlekrotch]

Spicer's only on loan for a month.  It is almost the end of the season but doesn't quite stretch that far.

[Wellred]

Confirmed on radio Deedah that we have JET and Mutch till the end of the season

[VikingJames]

I'd sooner have Spicer as back-up than Mutch tbh.

Agreed, to me Mutch has only done one thing good, score against boro other then that not a lot has happened. Spicer was awesome last season, but I think he gets played out of position sometimes which leads to bad performances. He gets put on right wing a lot and he's an attacking central midfielder.

[BillyStubbsTears]

From the BBC site

Doncaster Rovers midfielder John Spicer has joined League One Leyton Orient on a one-month loan deal.

He is already named in the starting line-up for play-off hopefuls Rovers' trip to Brentford on Saturday.

I know I'm a simple soul, but the total quantity of cogent information in my brain is now significantly less than it was before I read that.
