Hopefully they have a decent barber up there and he wont come back still looking like Andrew Ridgely circa 1984

[Tielemans63]

Good luck to him - hope he does well. I know I've said it loads of times but having seen him play a number of times I don't think he's ready for our first team yet.

[Guest MattP]

Best thing for him.

 

20 now which is old for a player not to be on the verge of a the first team in this division and the signings of Bagayoko and Miquel probably shows that Nigel certainly thinks he nowhere near ready yet.

 

Great shame though as we all had very high hopes a couple of years back.

[LCFC FOX]

Good luck Tafty! Hopefully another one of our own to break through

[Freeman's Wharfer]

Good luck Tafty! Hopefully another one of our own to break through

 

Isn't he from Derby?!

[Bert]

Isn't he from Derby?!

He's a Leicester fan. Started out playing for Derby but he's certainly Leicester through and through.

[Bob Weasel Fox]

He's a Leicester fan. Started out playing for Derby but he's certainly Leicester through and through.

Good luck to the lad, hope he does well on loan and comes back a better player for the experience

[Ashley]

Used to wear his Derby training kit around School. I've said before he has a Delap throw on him

[Wilson_6]

Pretty sure there was a picture of him on twitter as a kid wearing the old walkers crisps kit!

[LCFC FOX]

Isn't he from Derby?!

Nope, Leicester boy, Leicester raised, Leicester fan. 

Pretty sure there was a picture of him on twitter as a kid wearing the old walkers crisps kit!

yep he also had a season ticket at the KP growing up 

[Bryn]

Surely it's about time this kid pushed on and into the first team? He's been there or thereabouts for so long now. I'd like to see him get a run but there must be some glaring deficiencies to his game for him to not be getting close by the age of 20.

[nwl fox]

Needs to spend less time taking pictures of himself to post on twitter, thats all i'm saying, some of them are absolute cringe!!!

[scousefox4]

Good luck to the lad big future in the game but elsewhere I'm afraid , been outstanding at times but just never gets his chance .

[Xen]

Isn't he from Derby?!

 

As others have said, he's a Leicester lad. Went to Longslade CC in Birstall - year above me From Glenfield if I remember right?

 

Loan move should do him good. And to an English club this time, which'll be better for him. Good luck to him.

[kingfox]

If their fans don't appreciate how sexy his hair is.

 

Then their all cvnts.

 

Good luck George 

[notnow john]

Thin end of the wedge,starts with George then they take Richard !

[Haydos]

Needs to spend less time taking pictures of himself to post on twitter, thats all i'm saying, some of them are absolute cringe!!!

 

People who use the word cringe as an adjective are cringe

[Bettsj2]

Why are we loaning out our own youngsters and loaning others in etc etc blah blah.....you all know the drill.

I like Taft. Lock up your daughters, fathers of lincoln. 'Handsome' George Taft is gonna fvck em all!

GWON GEORGEH!!!

[sphericalfox]

Pretty much been hinting very unsubtly that he was heading out on loan on twitter for the last 3 weeks. This is no surprise. Hopefully he'll get some games and experience under his belt, as long as he doesn't get distracted. They don't have mirrors in York do they? 

[Fox92]

Isn't he from Derby?!

 

A friend of mine played with him at Derby.

[Dan]

Good luck to him in his quest of blocking as many York fans who've never spoke to him as possible.

[Guest MattP]

True that.

His twitter account is strictly bummers only.

[Dan]

In all seriousness, good luck to him, although it's getting a little late now and it's not like Pearson refuses to play youngsters - we've got the leagues youngest squad don't forget.

[Guest Col city fan]

He'll be joining Ash Chambers there then..
