Anyone got any ideas who might be out of favour somewhere, like Stockdale was when came to us previously?

I hear that Adam Smith is currently out of favour at Forest Green and training away from the first team squad. He was one of Tom Hopper's mates at Leicester, sacked after the notorious sex tape, but has a decent reputation in lower leagues and was in the League 2 team of the year a couple of seasons back.

Liverpool were keen to get young goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher a loan move to a Championship club in January but that didn't happen.

Any other thoughts?

Yeah, we won't get anyone.
 
EFL Regulations relating to emergency loans (para 57.2.2) state: "Clubs should be aware that the Premier League does not permit Premier League Clubs to send goalkeepers on seven day emergency loans into the EFL."
 
He can't because he's a Premier League goalkeeper. PL players are exempt from the emergency loan rules.

And of course Man Utd would never loan him back to us because they know we don't fulfil our commitments to loan players. Other clubs have the same opinion of us.

My thoughts are we can not throw on a kid against a team that have the bit between their teeth, and are unbeaten in the League for 13 games. It would be no good for us, and no good for his development and confidence. We must get someone in, especially as Ox could be out for 6 weeks.
 
Just put anyone in goal, it’ll be down to the defence in front of the keeper that dictates how busy our goalkeeper will be.
 
Seaden looks physically far more ready for league football, so hopefully he'll get the nod, especially as he's just been exposed to some action, albeit little, at Dagenham. Taylor looks far younger than he actually is in stature and I don't think it'd do him any good to play tonight.
