Really hope he pushes on in this loan. There's definitely a player in there.

[Burnley1989]

I like Dodgson but I think its unlikely his future will be at Burnley, hopefully he has a great loan and puts himself in the shop window for a good move in the summer.

[Vegas Claret]

I remember him playing really well against Benfica, hope he does well at Burton. He really needs to be playing games now.

[ecc]

Good he's got a League One club. They're in a mess but he should get to play.

[Woodleyclaret]

Another one we could have played v Reading then send him out

[FCBurnley]

Not sure what he will learn at a struggling club with a poor manager but at least he should get plenty of game Tom

[warksclaret]

I can see Dodgson being close to both Bobby Thomas(Coventry) and Jimmy Dunn (QPR).Both never here long enough to develop their potential but both very good defenders with their respective clubs

[dibraidio]

It's always going to be difficult to develop players as a yo-yo team. If they're not up to standard at exactly the right time in the championship they're going to struggle to get those opportunities. I think we are very lucky that CJ Egan Riley got his chance through injuries.

Good luck to the lad. I hope he gets plenty of game time and shows that he's more than good enough at that level.

Dodgson was a great success at Dundee last season and did best of the 3 we sent up there I believe (Mellon got injured tbf). I know we're often scathing about SPL football on here, but it's certainly a decent standard for a 21 year old lad. Parker must think he's pretty good to have had him on the bench a few times this season, so maybe he's still got a future with us. I'm not not sure he'll learn a lot at seriously struggling Burton, but at least he'll be playing and that's the main thing! I also think we have a problem regarding loaning players because I can't see us generally being happy to loan players to championship clubs if we think they might make a real difference, even though some of our players could really benefit from playing championship games. Loaning Obefemi to Plymouth is ok, but that's unusual.

[dibraidio]

I can't see us generally being happy to loan players to championship clubs

McNally, Twine, Zaroury, Obafemi? They were all a step above our U21s. I think it's more a case of Championship clubs not being interesting in taking our untried young players.

[Burnley1989]

I think he means whilst we are in the same division

[dibraidio]

McNally went to Coventry when we were in the Championship. He was considered excess to requirement but maybe the other players weren't because we didn't have a ridiculously bloated squad at that point. When was the last time we loaned a homegrown player to the Championship? Jay Rod?

[dibraidio]

Did pretty well last night. Both Boston goals came from his crosses. Only credited with one assist as a defender got a touch to the first but couldn't clear it. That win lifted them off the bottom.

[Rouwens_Weapon]

He got an assist today. Looking at the Burton message board they are really impressed with him and his crossing in particular.

[dibraidio]

Scored from his corner and the third came from his cross which the goalkeeper spilt at the feet of a Burton forward. He only has 2 assists but 3 goals from his crosses and one from his corner. Looked more like a wing back role this time round. He definitely looks to be making his mark for them.

[Commy]

Someone on their board said he is a cheat code in that division.

[dibraidio]

Another goal from one of his crosses, the shot was diverted by another player so he didn't get the assist but he got one from a free kick.

Amazing the creativity that he's providing through his crosses and set pieces. I wonder if that's why he wasn't loaned out earlier in the season.

3 assists in 4 games so far. He looks really comfortable in League One, hopefully he can keep this form up.

[Buxtonclaret]

He also began a couple of good moves from LB position, playing incisive passes through the middle.
Only watched the first hour, but apart from a couple of stray passes in the first 5 minutes or so, he'd a good game from what I saw.

He wasn’t able to be loaned out earlier in the season because of an injury, otherwise he would have been.

[northeastclaret]

If he had been given a chance in the first team IMO this season he good have established himself like Egan-Riley.

[Goliath]

A creative attacking left back. How we could do with one of those
