Adam Kay
Adam went straight into Accrington's squad for their home game against Exeter on Saturday 21st March, the day after making the move, but was an unused substitute as Accrington won 2-1.

It was the same in the following five games, named as a sub but not used, and the only football he's had in the four weeks have been three reserve games playing in the same league as he was playing at Burnley.

Yesterday against league leaders Brentford he was on the bench for the seventh time and finally got his call up. With an hour gone, and Accrington 3-0 down, manager John Coleman made a triple substitution.

On came former Claret John Mullin, Robert Grant along with Adam who replaced his former Burnley Centre of Excellence team mate Chris Turner. He'll be hoping now to get more first team action before the end of the season as he looks to win himself another deal at Turf Moor.

At the time of his move, Owen Coyle said: ""We are happy to allow Adam out on loan to Accrington. We have a very good relationship with the club and this will hopefully allow Adam to get some first team football as the season comes to a close.

"We did a similar thing with Jay Rodriguez last season at Stirling and he really benefited from the exposure."
