I remember last year, maybe 2017, Jodi Jones putting up a snapchat showing Addai had taken out a £10k payday loan...and was using it to rent a car and spend on FIFA points or something like that. So I can fully buy the immature line.

Definitely needs game time. Surprised its only a month, maybe they're just going to keep extending it a month at a time.

Good. His physique suggests he will be good if he can be arsed

Maybe the hope is he excels after a month then moves up a division?

I'm guessing that is probably the case.

Will the U23s not need him back in goal at some point?

The loan is only a month, but even if it's extended or he goes out elsewhere it looks like last years U18 keeper Bilson was given a contract so he'll be doing it I'd have though, with maybe Wilson stepping in occasionally to keep his eye in (he may play cup games like LOB used to do). There's also Tyler in this years academy who they may want to test out in U23 to see if he might step up with Fallowes then taking his place in the academy team.
In terms of numbers he won't be missed. He needs to be playing men's football not U23 by now if he's ever going to make it.

I read it as they chose not to?

That would make more sense. Bit annoying if they've sent him back with no warning right before the deadline. Does that mean we can't send him out anywhere until January now? Being sat around not even getting game time in the U23s isn't going to do him any favours.

Non league so different rules apply, think he can go anywhere.

By sounds of it they had one of their own GK out on loan, he did well so they want to use the guy that belongs to them.

That's understandable, especially if they were paying some or all of Addai's wages.
better days

I suspect he'll be sent to another non League club on loan
Doubt very much he'll get any game time here

Bilson has gone out on loan now so presume Addai will come back into the U23 side

Not sure, U18 goalkeeper Cian Tyler should get the game time instead as he’s in second year of his scholarship where they decide whether he’ll get a pro contract or not.

Addai out on loan to redditch in the division below from Telford... Surely he should be stepping up divisions at this point... Unless he's not good enough

He’ll be on his way out at the end of the season you would think. Bilson has been impressive for the 23s apparently and managed to get a loan move to a club in the same division as Addai despite being three years younger
He needs regular games, in competitive matches unlike outfield goalkeeping is goalkeeping, same size goals, same size footballs, shots, corners and crosses to deal with, will do him good imo. I actually hope Redditch aren’t that good and he’s under plenty of pressure.

You can’t seriously think that? You may as well say he could play in the Premier League because the goals are the same size and so are the footballs. I think you are doing a big disservice to the goalkeeping position by saying it’s the same no matter the level

Agree. The fact he's had about 6 loans in 2 years and the quality of team is dropping says alot
