| Four 23s loaned out today 17:44 - Mar 24 with 2774 views | dmm | Joe Gubbins to National League side Southend. Hamzad Kargbo to Oxford City, Kai Woollard-Innocent to Eastbourne and Franklin Domi to Ebbsfleet - all in the National League South. They've all had loans out before and I can't help but wonder if this has been done to help them get signed by the clubs they've gone to because they're not going to be kept on at QPR. |  | | |  |
| Four 23s loaned out today on 21:57 - Mar 24 with 2439 views | derbyhoop | Your assessment may be correct OR it could be an important step intheir develpment. I expect that we'd be unlikely to turn more than ! of them into Championship level players, |  |

| Four 23s loaned out today on 20:15 - Apr 26 with 1793 views | derbyhoop | I'm not convinced that any 20+ year old who ends up on loan in National League South is going to be good enough. Unless they come on in leaps and bounds. Another level up and they have a chance. Maybe not Championship level but somewhere in EFL. The U23s have used 60 players this season. Some have been 1st team squad coming back from injury. Personally, I think its dar too many, although I believe 2 or 3 have been bombed out already. |  |

I watched Seny Dieng play for Hampton & Richmond in a play off v Braintree a few years ago. Never thought he would make our first team and play for Senegal in the AFCON. I saw Richard Pacquette score against Plymouth twice. He is now a Teaching Assistant at a school in Harlesden. Suppose my message is, you just never know. Not even if you’re Chris Ramsey. |  | |  |

Ollie Watkins was on loan from Exeter at Weston-super-Mare at age 20. 6 years later he made his England debut. |  | |  |
