“Lloyd’s development has been fairly rapid since I arrived at the Club; he’s worked hard with Paul Crichton and the other goalkeepers. He’s a developing, improving young ‘keeper.

 

“Now the time is right for him to go out and play senior football. He will train with Ilkeston on Thursdays and play in their games, but otherwise he will continue to train with us at Canalside though the week.
