Short term loan to Blyth Spartans. Apparently because Dodds is up and running again.

I'm guessing we can recall him should Dodds break down again (which he hopefully won't).

Keeps him fit I suppose, rather than sitting on the bench, if indeed he’s on the bench.

Interesting that Joe Monks explained the reasoning behind Stevo’s short term loan, not ‘the Gaffer’. Maybe something, probably nothing....

He's done the same for the other academy players we sent out on loan, don't get your hopes up just yet

makes sense we have Dodds, Freeman and Sheron who would be ahead of him at RB

Hope it helps him but i thought he was prone to the odd mistake but he is young.

Freeman is out of contract now - thankfully Sheron can operate there but id of rather kept him in the side knowing how delicate Dodds has become

he is a good prospect though who needs time on the pitch. its not as if senior players never make a mistake and at least he manages to stay on the pitch without getting sent off.

Agree, he's shown more quality in his short time at Pools than some other new arrivals I won't mention...

If he is let go, it could be that his injury is a case of bad timing and rotten luck - like the one the trialist Mottley-Henry got in pre-season.

Sarll made a good point about its improtant at that age development wise to have a week of training followed by a game.
I think its the right call--of course its Pools so no doubt Dodds then Sheron will both get injured saturday but overall I think it makes sense

So Freeman has been released, And injury free according to the OS.

Trouble is Freeman looked like a footballer, Played like a Footballer, Had a footballing Brain.
So absolutely no good to "Uncle Darren"

Can only assume it was a lack of good ENERGY, that was his downfall. Very much a Societal issue nowadays, don't you think?

Maybe his "evolution" had stopped, his forehead hadn't got any longer and his limbs had stayed the same length?

Maybe Freeman just didn't want to be here? I can't imagine why on earth he's be sent back otherwise as he's a cracking player at this level.

Freeman 32 years old been about, could have too vocal for Sarl voicing his displeasure about tactics ?

That’s a good point, doubt ‘Saddle bags’ is a compromiser?

one possible dissenter gone and hopefully none of the others will get the chance of joining him by asking for a transfer.

Thats more like it.

Stephenson has the makings of a good footballer. So he'll not fit in a Snarll team.

Remember when "Dave" was suspended, "Uncle Darren" was asked about filling the LB spot, And replied play someone else there.

Masterfull Stroke by a Tactical Genius, Well thats his thoughts not mine.
