adamsmith69 Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 think i mentioned not so long ago on a baxter thread that it would be good to loan him out. I agree a great move to get them both first team experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stegasaurus Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 I think Duffy could turn into a special player. Not sure on Baxter, but he has the ability, no question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 It will do wonders for Duffy, get some 1st team game time under his belt. Agree with above, he has the most promise to become a great player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Duffy has been linked with a move to Preston on loan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Do you think Preston would be a good club to go on loan to? I'm of the opinion that any move would be good, so long as he gets playing competitive football at a relatively high level. Especially when you consider the crucial stage that Shane is at in his career. He is too old for the U18s (I think), not yet ready for the first team and with reserve games occurring very rarely, it must be difficult to develop one's game. I heard whispers of Baxter moving to Scunthorpe. I suppose the same questions apply to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Preston would be a very good move. Darren Ferguson is a good manager and he'll be playing with the likes of Matty James and Josh King from United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Any move would be good for him as long as he's playing regularly, because he sure as shit won't be playing first-team football for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton_Worshiper Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Yes, Preston would be good for Shane. Playing alongside players like Sean St Ledger will do him no end of good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In August 2008 he became the youngest player to be handed a Premier League start for the Toffees in their match at West Brom at the age of 16 years and 198 days. i'll read it all next time i promise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 http://www.nsno.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=8277.0 Was in total fitness in Preston just before and some of their injured players train there. Was speaking to Jamie Douglas who's a striker there an he said Duffy's in talks and will probably be going on loan for the rest of the season.

chicagoblue Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) Would be good to see how they perform week in week out and it doesn't seem they'll be getting any real time with us this season.

Noddy Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 i'll read it all next time i promise Ha, I should do that too... I just scanned over the article as well. With regard to that post on NSNO, Romey, I had a look at the Preston squad and there are quite a few younger guys from the NI underage set-up that Shane would be friendly with, as well as 3 Ireland internationals. All in all, it seems that Preston might also be a good move in terms of being able to settle in easily as well. RE Everton_Worshiper: It's interesting you should joke about the talents of St. Ledger. He's held in high regard by Ireland fans who feel that the move would be fantastic for Shane, considering that he would have the opportunity to learn from a 'great defender' like St Ledger To be fair though, he's not that bad. Championship may be his level, but he has been linked with a few Prem clubs and Trapattoni seems to rate him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton_Worshiper Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Yeah, I wasn't joking as I actually like St Ledger as a player! Preston is the one team I always look out for their result each week, don't know why I just do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 St. Ledger is a quality defender! </blinkeredirelandfan> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 My apologies, I misunderstood. I think he's a solid player and Dunne compliments him. He's strong in the air, but he's prone to diving into challenges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I was probably the 1st person on this forum to shout for St Ledger as a possible target, he was about 18 and playing with Peterborough at the time. Got to say tho that he hasn't improved as much as i thought he might, he's not a bad player but not a top tier player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markduff Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 quicker duffy goes on loan the better!!! if moyes thinks hibbert was a good replacement for jags on tue nite,,,,,then i think he has lost the plot! settled for a 1-1 againt westham! get urself a set of balls moyes in the transfer window!!!!!

Hafnia Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Moyes has favourites, simple as that. He would use them without logic rather than drop them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldnt agree more... People are quick to jump on the Moyes brings in the youth but apart from Rodwell (who probably wouldnt be playing as much as he is if it werent for him doing well at the start of last season when everyone was injured) no-one else has reall be given a proper go in the real first team. It took Seamus over half a season to get a go and Gueye hasnt even had a whiff. Im gutted for Duffy, it cant be much longer til he is given a real go. Surely if neither Jags or Heits are fit for Stoke he wont contemplate starting Hibbert against Jones and Duffy should get the nod. Will be a tough physical game for him to be introduced into but from what I have seen of him, im sure he will love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy the blue Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Duffy played at Goodison last season in a Europa Cup game and he was magnificent. I recall saying at the time that his was the best debut I had ever seen from a kid at Goodison. I'm aware he had that freak accident from which he has now fully recovered so why send him out on loan, we have need of him now, we needed him against WH but he was left to warm the bench. It used to the case that young players were nurtured as they progressed through the ranks, good ones were never farmed out elsewhere, I do believe that such action is a load of bollocks. Colin Harvey, Brian Harris, Joe Royle and many others had baptisms of fire and succeeded because management at that time believed in them, what sort of message does this send to kids, 'push off we are thinking of flogging you as you are not good enough' We need players to have confidence at all levels, lets bring our kids on by showing faith in them rather than by giving them negative messages. In case anyone says it did Ossie and Seamus no harm, young Vaughan has been told he can go which is a joke when you look at the form of our strikers. When the likes of Harvey et al played subs hadn't been invented, they couldn't come on at anytime, if they got the nod it normally meant they were in from the off, Management is about sending the right messages to players, this again is a bad move in my book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
