Saturday was a bit of a frosty one across the South West and so this might not be the longest edition of Loan Watch.
In the National League South, Jordan Thomas wasn’t involved for Torquay, serving a suspension after a recent red card.
Whilst Will Buse had to pick the ball out of the W*ymouth net on three occasions, including from a wonderful Rhys Murphy strike as Dorking got the better of a five-goal thriller.
Corey Koerner was named on the bench for Sherborne in their 1-0 defeat to AFC Portchester, the scorer on the day, one Brett Pitman!
Whilst the Reserves at Sherborne didn’t play today, we’ve noticed that Joe Crisp and Blake Watts have been involved in their set up recently too, both had scored for the Under 18s this season and both are regularly playing for the Zebras squad too.
Bridport – who had Sol Padmore in their line up – were 3-0 down as the clock ticked beyond the hour mark.
But a remarkable comeback saw them snatch a point, the equaliser coming from the head of our very own George Geraghty.
Superb comeback from @Bridportfc this afternoon
3-0 down with half hour to go
3-3 final score

So, whilst the Under 18s may not be involved in their own league, plenty of young Glovers are out and about getting game time in the local divisions.
