Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Vitalfootball: QPRMancienne: Chelsea Access Denied Rangers loan star Michael Mancienne has been told he can't feature in January's FA Cup third round clash against his parent club, Chelsea.Under the terms of the loan agreement with Queens Park Rangers, Michael has permission to play in the FA Cup for QPR; however, the player is not permitted to play against Chelsea in the competition.Other Chelsea loan players Scott Sinclair and Ben Sahar deals expire before the big game, nevertheless, should they extend their stay, expect similar clauses in any new contract.Makes sense, would be shit if he put Lamps or JT out with a clumsy tackle for 6 months.......

Fulham Broadway 17,350 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Funny to think they used to be our neighbourhood rivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Well it was always going to happen, hardly ever these days are loan players allowed to play against their parent clubs, which is understandable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott 7 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I would let him play, great experience for the lad. If he actually stopped us from winning, then we'd just call him straight back from the loan and shove him in the first team . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 10,227 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 only fair but still it would be a good expericne for the young player to be playing in such a big game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 It would be good experience for him, but the bottom line is the most important thing is for us to win the game, and Mancienne not playing will weaken their team.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would mean going into every tackle fully committed, which could result in an injury to as I've said before, one of our main players, which would weaken our team.
