Can't see why people wouldn't want him. It seems so petty to not want him just because he's a City player. It's not even like our players hate their players and vice versa, they're all regularly out for drinks together; Bobby Reid & Ellis Harrison were best mates, Taylor is still mates with a lot of our players, Lines got congratulatory posts from a lot of City players when he got released. He could set in well, he's desperately the player we need, and the "I don't want to be developing players for City." argument is stupid to me, so? We're willing to develop players for Chelsea, Swansea, Barnsley, QPR, Stoke, Sheffield United, Arsenal etc but not for City even if it's a good player? Also, if god forbids City do get promoted this season (unlikely imo but possible), why would they want a League 1 player? Surely it would mean if he was good for us we could buy him on a permanent? I know that's not like us at the moment but that doesn't seem too unrealistic a scenario. He's a very good player and someone we'd all have in a heartbeat, so I'm not too sure why people wouldn't take him just because he's a City player (not even like he's a City fan or a City youth, only been there a season, and we're all fine with having Little). Very...very different signing an Ex City player like Little to loaning a current player off them.It fact a non first team squad player/youth side player. We have done it before and I hated it then, and I will hate it even more after the Taylor deal went down if it ever happens again. This may sound small minded,or cutting my nose off despite my face blah..blah - which is bollox.Its called having simple pride for our football club. We will be loaning a player off them that they deem "inferior" to them,right now and will let little Bristol Rovers borrow him for the moment. f**k THAT! I would rather see us resign the snake on a 3 year contact then "borrow" any standard of player off them. There are another 90 odd clubs in England that we could seek to loan off other than them,there is no excuse. In fact it worrys me deeply in regards to our owners intent, or GC management ablity that we are looking at this as an option.This smacks of desperation and echos the era for 5 years before May 2014, and we all know what happened there.

I very much doubt we can afford to loan the lad, after all he has played more league one games than most of our squad and will be on 3 times the wage of our highest earners.

I know nothing about the kid.But if your correct about the wage thing then as a Football club we better get our sh** together ASAP (ground/new owners) as if they are that far ahead of us in terms of wage paying ability, that they can pay three times as much for there 3rd string players - against our best and highest earners, then we have bigger problems then I first thought.

You need to research the championship and the player frankly.

I dont hate City like some on here do,my best mates a shithead.But us loaning players from them is a disgrace to our club as you said, and I refuse to say anything otherwise.This weak ass and water poor mentality is the reason our club is the way it is today. Does anyone think that City fans wouldnt kick off if roles were reversed? Would they not like f**k!! - In fact thats something I respect about there fanbase,they dont take sh**. But us, we bend over and take all 12 inchs dry. No reason we should ever loan a player from Bristol City FC. Buy, or sign on a free after being let go from them maybe.But a loan... Nah!

Part of me hopes it comes off just to see Icegas's reaction!

From a business point of view (ie the people that matter) it makes sense to tap into local talent from a club who have sold the likes of Bryan and Reid who came through their youth system and sold on for many millions. They have young players worth a lot of money and we have young players that are prepped for playing for Yate Town or Mangos
From a gasheads point of view, loaning a player from them will be as popular as a pork pie in a synagogue. End of.
Personally I cant see how they would do anything to help us and would rather loan players to other local teams before Rovers, but hey there are much bigger clubs than them to loan players from.
