LUFC Leeds United Loan Watch

Vital Leeds looks at how the loan players did in the games over the weekend.

It was a fairly uneventful weekend for the six players currently out on loan from Elland Road.

Injuries, suspensions and the weather put pay to nearly all of the Leeds loan players.


Patrick Kisnorbo - Ipswich Town (loan ends January 29th)
After making his debut in the FA Cup defeat at Aston Villa, Kisnorbo has been an unused substitute in the last two games.

He remained on the bench this weekend as Ipswich were pegged back at Portman Road by a last minute Barnsley equaliser.

Zac Thompson - Bury (End of season)
Bury saw their home game with Crawley Town called off on Friday due to snow.

The midfielder has made 17 appearances for Bury since originally arriving at Gigg Lane in October.


Paul Connolly - Preston North End (rest of season)
Connolly joined Preston in midweek for the remainder of the season and he is still waiting to make his debut after the game at Yeovil Town was called off due to the weather.

Ross Killock - Alfreton Town (loan ends Feb 2nd)
The defender is currently out of the side through injury. Killock has now missed the last two games for Alfreton with a calf injury.

His teammates battled to a 0-0 draw at AFC Telford.

The 19-year-old, who recently extended his loan, has made 18 appearances with17 starts since joining them in October.


Alex Cairns - Stalybridge Celtic
Cairns missed his first game since arriving at Celtic in the first week of the season through suspension, as table toppers Chester beat them 4-1.

The 20-year-old has played 28 times for Celtic this season, keeping 7 clean sheets.


Nathan Turner - Chester FC (loan ends Jan 26th)
The midfielder was the only on loan player to play this weekend as he played the 90 minutes as Chester beat Stalybridge Celtic 4-1. The win sees them stretch their lead at the top of the Blue Square North Division to sixteen points.

Nathan has now made eight appearances since joining them in November and he has scored one goal.
