    I seem to remember a guy that we were interested in signing, and took on trial but decided against it. I might be wrong like, but don`t recall anything about a guy being loaned to Belgium.

    There was a recent story about us linking up with a Belgian team to farm out younger players to give them first team experience. That was only a couple of months ago though I`m sure.

    We have linked up with them, Diarmond O'Carrol is there.

    It's KF Oofstende, but no we haven't got an American there and we didn't take one on trial.

    He was supposed to go and be joined by 2 other youth team players who would have been guaranteed first team football but it doesn't appear to have happened.

    Yeah you're right. He says he's enjoying it so maybe they'll go soon.
