Breaking News Stockdale signs on Emergency loan

Have I missed something, but what's happened with our captain then?

Still banned, think he has one more game after this.

Oxley and Kightly got three match bans after the Charlton game. The next competitive match was Cambridge in the Checkawotsit Cup but it didn't count towards their bans, although they were not allowed to play in that game (a bit weird). Since then we have played Peterborough and Shrewsbury, so this is the third qualifying game of their bans.

How odd, has this been done on a week by week arrangement then? you would have thought it would have been 3 weeks from the outset.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

They only got 3 game bans did they? That would make this the last one then and they will be available at Wycombe. For some reason I thought it was 4 games but I may have made that up

You only get a 3 match ban unles you lodge an appeal and lose, then it's 4 matches. CP was considering an appeal in Kightly's case but decided against it. Maybe that's what you had in mind @Spaceman Spiff ?

Ah yes it could be - thanks @Rootshallbloke

The Ban included the Check-a-trade but it did not count as one of the 3 matches.

One thing I don't like is his name...….Sounds like a drab northern town on the outskirts of Manchester.

Oxley reminds of Robin Hood (Sir Robin of (L)Oxley) - I wish he’d steal a few points from the rich for us!

You aren't allowed to do that, the rules say it has to be 7 days at a time.

Looks like he’s been hanging around the pie shop again!

Having the hashtag Soufle above the picture was a bit insensitive.

it is an emergency loan afterall.

So, after seeing Stockdale in 2 of his 3 outings for us I can’t say I was overly impressed. Not saying he was a bad keeper, but 2 things stood out; he likes to punch (the ball that is, rather than the Ox’s preference) rather than catch / he looks at least a stone overweight.

Looking forward to seeing the Ox back in the No1 shirt.

Bring on the Ox !

I would suggest punching yesterday with a wet ball / wet pitch was the right thing to do.
When under no pressure he caught easily - think he knows what he’s doing

 

[The General]

He made one bad punch yesterday but was pretty faultless bar that, mind you he didn't have much to do!

I thought the reason we have Stockdale in goal is because Oxley loves to punch.

Indeed

I hear Oxley is ahead of Tyson Fury in the queue to fight AJ next year...

 

[eastling]

I saw him over the three games and got better progressively. Good distribution and kicking but as others have hinted perhaps not in the best physical condition. I wish him well.

That's not right. Most unsuccessful appeals remain with a 3 match ban although they have the option to increase to 4 matches if the appeal is deemed frivolous. That rarely happens.
