LoanWatch

Four months into the season there is nearly a full team's worth of Canaries learning their trade away from Costa del Colney.

Obviously different players are at different levels, but here is a rough-and-ready summary.

Young Ben Watt made his debut for Braintree Town in their come-from-behind FAC victory, coming on as sub & replacing former City player Alfie Payne.

Sean Stewart is also doing his bit at Cliftonville, now their regular selection for left-mid and with over 900 minutes of senior experience under his belt.

City were in the majority at Morecambe, as McCracken, Hills (both starters) & Shipley (as sub, making his way back from injury) all turned out for Accrington.

Archie Mair continues to be first-choice GK for Gateshead, who are doing well in the National Lge (fourth place)

Abu Kamara is a regular starter at Portsmouth, with two assists and a goal so far this season. He is getting plenty of minutes, which is important.

Joe Rose was quietly shipped out to Cheshunt in July and is their first-choice GK.

Jon Tomkinson & Tom Dickson-Peters are not yet into their stride, at Bradford & Woking respectively.

This week Jaidon Owen, a defender in our Yoot team, signed his first Professional contract with City. Owen joins Gabriel Forsyth as a First-Year scholar who has been awarded a full Pro deal.

Another signing is Errol Mundle-Smith, an 18-year-old striker joining on a Scholarship from non-League ‘Acrostic FC’.

The U18 side are struggling again this season, with a W0 D0 L7 record. I note that they are even losing to the other weak sides in the South division; Southampton, Reading, West Brom & Leicester have all won only one game, but this was vs City.
