Share Big future: Stockdale[LNB]Fulham goalkeeper David Stockdale, 25, will be offered the chance to go out on loan despite his recent international call-ups for England. [LNB]He is behind Mark Schwarzer in the club pecking order and is likely to be on the bench tonight as Fulham play the home leg of their Europa League qualifier against NSI Runavik from the Faroe Islands. [LNB]Manager Martin Jol said: 'We'll never sell him because I think his future is bright, but we need a club which will promise me he will play every week.' [LNB]Meanwhile, Jol has linked up with Hans Segers again after appointing him the club's goalkeeping coach.[LNB]The recently-appointed Dutchman has brought in fellow countryman Segers to fill the role vacated by Kevin Hitchcock.[LNB]Segers worked with Jol at Tottenham, while Ray Lewington has been promoted from a youth coaching role to one of Jol's assistant.[LNB]'[Hans] comes from PSV Eindhoven, I worked with him in my time at Spurs so I know him very well,' he said.[LNB] 'We started off with Ray Lewington because he's probably a main figure here, at this club, he knows everything.[LNB]'He was here when Roy [Hodgson] was here and working here for the academy when Mark [Hughes] was here, so I think he's a key figure here.'[LNB]Jol had already previously drafted in brother Cornelis Jol and Michael Lindeman to the management set-up at Craven Cottage.[LNB] Familiar faces: Martin Jol has employed Hans Segers[LNB]Meanwhile, defender Aaron Hughes admits he does not know too much about Thursday evening's Europa League opponents NSI Runavik but is not expecting to come out on the wrong end of an upset. [LNB] The Cottagers began pre-season last week in preparation for the first-round tie at Craven Cottage against the team from the Faroe Islands.[LNB] Hughes is one of a handful of players within the Fulham squad to have played a side from the Nordic country, having drawn 1-1 against their national team with Northern Ireland last October.[LNB] But despite almost coming a cropper on international duty, Hughes does not expect too much pressure this time. [LNB]He said: 'I don't know a great deal about them. We have not had a chance to look at them too much this week because it has more been about preparation on the football pitch and a little bit of top-up on fitness. [LNB]'I guess in the meeting before the game anything that the lads inside have found they will highlight and give us an idea before we go out. [LNB]'It is as much about focusing about what we do and making sure we do all the basic things right, which should be enough to take us through.'[LNB] Here we go!
