How many games they got left ...5 or something? Seems pointless to me , he should have been loaned out in jan! |  |

Wasn’t he injured in January hence why he wasn’t involved the the FA Cup. He’s also been injured recently hence he delay in this loan. Five games at a decent standard is better than a potential bit part role for us surely. |  | | |

I seem to remember he was an unused sub for the 3rd round and picked up an injury shortly after. There were seven allowed on the bench. |  | | |

Deal was done a few weeks back on National League deadline day but never announced because Sinclair got injured. Announced it now as they think they can get him fit and playing, plus they really need striking options apparently |  |

Dont agree. Would rather see him getting a run out at KPF in an upcoming meaningless game. What else are we looking forwards to in remaining fixtures - a cameo from Jeff Hendrick maybe?
Imagine he put in a bullocking riproaring 45 mins for us... would give us all a much needed shot of enthusiasm for the future. If he were a damp squib well so what? He's just a kid. | | | |

As Warburton has indicated on more than on occasion, Armstrong is not yet ready for Championship football. That's why he's on loan out to a National League side. Teams in higher leagues are not interested so why would we play him? |  | | |

Tbh if it was me - not that I really know like rest of us - but can't see why not give the boy experience of Championship level games.
Mahoney - I know was a necessity - but he did well and what an experience for him.
Only reason could see not, Warburton for some strange reason, not given up completely on play offs.
But with our strikers all underperforming and end season games why not give the boy a chance.
Duke mckenna and Bettache did ok as did Masterson, they have given him lower league try outs and seen as now it's only 5 games give the lad a shot at it.
If he had couple decent games, be a massive confidence for him going forwards and even if he not in the games, still a great learning experience when tbh we have nothing to play for.
Am assuming since he was injured, maybe the deal was already decided so perhaps hands were tied. |  |

Think it's a good move, if he gets a few goals or plays well when scouts are watching he might get some interest for a loan at a higher level next season. Wouldn't get that if he was on the bench here or getting little change out of a much better opposition. |  | | |

If he was a damp squid he wouldn’t be alone in the next few games I dare say.
But would love it if he decent!! |  | | |

Okay, so it's a damp SQUIB not a damp SQUID. The term means a let down or disappointment. A squib is a small firework and if it was damp it probably wouldn't light properly and just fizzle out = disappointment.
A squid, on the other hand, is a sea mammal and is therefore meant to be quite thoroughly wet. The only scenario when a damp squid could be a source of disappointment would be to the squid itself, as, if if is only damp, it is probably drying out and heading for the frying pan. | | | |

Without wishing to be pedantic, a squid is not a mammal - sea or otherwise. It is a cephalopod. | | | |

As a fan of crispy crunchy calamari, I would find that being damp rather than crispy a real source of disappointment too. I will see it from that perspective, a real damp squid | |

If the club think the level he needs is 3 divisions below us, playing him in the championship seems a pretty foolish idea, but go off everyone i guess |  | | |

I'm just not sure about eating squid anymore. While not as intelligent as octopuses, they are supposed to be mentally on a par with dogs, which I've increasingly found an uneasy thought while, as Ray Winstone would put it, having the calamari. |  | | |
