Another loanee, Valentin Gjokaj, was an unused substitute for Carlisle United in their 3-1 home defeat by Sheffield United.

“Good luck to Kevin, a good pro who did ok for us and well for
many other teams. He is quite a good intelligent pundit on the game so hopefully he will have a career in the media.”

“I dont think this is helping Ball to develope not playing at Coventry, and why is Gjokaj out at carlisle if he ain't getting game time bring them home.”
