    Loan is almost up. Where does he end up next? Yeovil? Port Vale?

    In the second half of the article, the Birmingham Mail UK reported Brek Shea's loan contract with Birmingham City spell expires on Saturday, December 13th (it's not December 11th as previously reported months ago). Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett mentioned about his status with the local newspaper and plans to speak with him sometime this week. Interestingly, BBC WM Sport 95.6 through @bbcsportwm (an official twitter feed for BBC WM Sport, where it spreads sport news across the West Midlands on radio; the sports radio station is based in Birmingham, UK) informed their followers (approximately 10,200) that his loan spell ends on December 13th - I'm fairly certain it mentioned his name on radio during the day. So suddenly, Brek Shea faces scrutiny in relating with his loan status with Birmingham City.


    Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett welcomes Wes Thomas back into first team fold [December 11, 2014 @ 6:45AM GMT (1:45AM EST)]
    http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/spo...s/birmingham-city-manager-gary-rowett-8264885

    The excerpt:

    "While Thomas returns Saturday’s game could prove to be Brek Shea’s last with his loan spell due to end on December 13.

    Rowett will speak with the American before deciding whether or not the he returns to parent club Stoke City.

    “He obviously hasn’t been that involved over the six games and it might be that he wants to go back and give himself and opportunity to get in their first team.

    “I would imagine I will have that conversation with him this week at some point and make a decision on it between us.”

    Shea was a surprise substitute in last Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at Blackpool, his sixth appearance since arriving two months ago."

    Saturday's game with #Reading is also the last game of Brek Shea's #bcfc loan spell from #scfc.

    I guess it's a positive that Rowett wants to speak with him. Instead of having an assistant tell him to make sure he has his locker emptied out by the 13th.

    Not in the 18 today vs Reading for his final game during this extremely successful loan spell. Probably boarding a flight to Barcelona.

    Probably . . . yes. He's definitely in need of a vacay.

    Orlando coach Adrian Heath played for Stoke. President Phil Rawlins used to be an owner and president of Stoke.

    Good for him. Orlando has a good shot of being a nice MLS team right out of the gate if they can figure out a few positions.

    He stinks it up for two seasons in England, makes a very nice paycheck and then gets to come back to sunny Florida and play alongside kaka?! Lucky boy.

    It's the eastern conference, also SKC and Houston just moved to the west.

    The were one of the favorites for playoffs out of the east before the expansion draft.

    Do Orlando still have Tony Pulis's son playing for them? He was awful, made a career out of following daddy around. Even TP realised he couldnt take up a Premier League squad place though and sent him out to Orlando

    He's listed as a Youth Coach on Wikipedia, which is kind of hilariously ironic.
