Forster keen to sample first-team football

Stockport County have snapped up Newcastle United goalkeeper Fraser Forster on a one-month loan deal. Forster has yet to make a first-team appearance for Newcastle, but is highly rated at St James' Park. He is likely to be in Stockport's squad for Friday's League One game with Oldham Athletic and is looking forward to his opportunity. "The main thing is to try to play games and to try to get a bit of experience," Forster told the club's official website. "I've come here because I know I'll be playing and I'm looking forward to it." The 20-year-old has been signed by Hatters boss Jim Gannon as first choice Owain Fon Williams is due to miss the upcoming games against Bury in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy and Southend United in the league due to international commitments.
