Harry can you please credit the relevant person for this bit of knowledge as I feel almost certain the info that you got from your own e mail inbox was posted on Spurs Odious 10 minutes previous!

I feel a little bit Peterborough United.

'Promising young player', does he mean Pekhart?

Makes Jasper look a bit of a bell end doesn't it.

I dont see what the problem is with him being on loan, if he does well this season Man Utd will reel him back in.

If we had bought him outright and he done well, we probably would have sold him to a big club next window anyhow!

he could turn out to be great, but do you think he'd want to go back to utd and try and get in the 1st team ahead of tevez, rooney and bernatov?

Who cares if he's going back to them, he'll have something to prove with us and in reality he's third choice in what will probably be a side playing one up front. Appreciate he'll be 2nd choice for UEFA cup but so what. We could have kept Peckhart but FC has been on loan in the championship and can prove he's good enough at that level. Peckhart ain't! Hopefully he'll get more minutes on the pitch at Saints than he would have done for us, prove he's a player and replace FC when he comes back. judging by what's been said it seems likely another striker will come in Jan so FC will then be fourth choice. I think we made the best of a bit of a balls up, for all we know JKH was all but done only to pull at the last minute, who can be blamed for that? i know, I know we should have sorted it earlier but I'm afraid the real world doesn't work like that all the time and if we were screwed at the last minute FC seems a decent backup striker in the meantime.

BIOYSOC! (my new sign off!)

What Posh!

hopefully we will actually buy someone who dosnt look good against crap opposition on you tube come Jan and send him packing.... now we are paying Manures wage bill FFS ! also no doubt a spy in our camp who knows what info red nose will be getting out of him for the next tapping up session... sorry bitter twisted and all that but this one really f#cks me off

Can we all just cheer up please?

Do I need to remind everyone we support the best team in the land, nay, the world?

BE PROUD OF YOUR CLUB PEOPLE

COME ON YOU SPURS!!

Even if he does stay on, it's a lose/lose situation.

If he stays and is crap, we ship him off.
If he stays and is good enough to lodge an offer, he'll be x times more expensive than he is now because his performances this season will have affected his value.

I said it before but here with a few less swear words. What can Campbell give us that young pekhart or barcham can't give us? Why sell a player to utd and then agree to blood their youngsters at the same time. MENTAL. We should feed him on a diet of booze, fags, and kebabs and send him back a year or six short of fitness.

Secondly, whilst I envy your getting that level of personal service from the Spurs board. Does the fact he's bothering not suggest a modicum of guilt for what has transpired?

can you reply to him:

So do Man Utd loan Pekhart off us for a year for experience and development? Or are we developing their player for them?
Are we officially their feeder club now?

Fresh from the delightful back and forth on the previous thread, i've been inspired to get meself a brand spanking new profile, makin me all official like.

Right, let's start going militant with some opinions.

Erm... Leave the kid on the bench unless an emergency arises. Maybe the deal was £25m after all, assuming that if he plays, we'll add £5m to the boys value by the time we give him back. I thought we'd had the last laugh. Not so it would appear.

It's all about the positives, much better 'squad' than this time last year.

yes that is a joke, how are we expected to get excited by a player who is not ours and no matter how well he does, never will be?

poor piece of last minute business

So who is tellin fibs Jasper or HH

keep seeing the same sign off - what does BIOYSOC stand for please?
also who is JKH striker we were in for?

finally, which club is likely to be the next man city? probably a sleeping giant, preferably in london, on a sound financial footing.........know anyone??

patience please people - we will have the last laugh!!

He's just come through their youth system so he'll be earning cock all (in football terms) and would cost less than most even as 3rd choice. I bet even Rasiak was on more money! 9 months or so wages isn't going to be a problem.
As I've mentioned I reckon he'll get fewer minutes than Peck will so who cares.

continuing in a negative vain about on loan strikers who remebers our last loanee striker from up North the roaring success that was .....

I am still stunned that the newspapers are not making more of the Berbatov kidnap. If Woodward and Bernstein could bring down Nixon, surely the tenacity of the Spurs Blogland can keep on this story until such time as ManUre are deducted points and Fergie and Gill are jailed for perjury. Apart from Dorothy Boyd and flipper the goldfish, who's with me?

I think we should break his leg in a training ground accident that no one will see and then cancel his loan, after he has scored a few goals for us and we have bought a new striker of course.

Unless of course the boy Campbell sees that there is something other than the Dark side and leaves us at the end of the season to join Leyton Orient.

Where there is money there are usuually masons.

Man City are well minted now innit.

Campbell dropped down to the championship and looked very good (Hull offered £7m for him!). Pecker hasn't done it even at this level and would be a bigger gamble, he'll get his chance at Saints this year. Barcham - I doubt he'll ever be good enough even at Championship level.
Blood their youngsters, we needed someone and he'll be a back up!

Secondly yes, I think they are as gutted as we are that another striker didn't come in and I think admitting it only proves as much.

so what! he's a stop gap who'll only play when needed. We don't want him after Jan (hopefully) or at worst Summer as we'll (hopefully be signing a top notch striker or Pecker turns out to be sh1t hot for saints and we have him back.

How are Spurs a feeder club, it's ridiculous the claims people come up with.

Now West Ham are a feeder club people look at the talent they have lost over the years.

Count me in. I ran with kidnapping line minutes before the hush money/beads & mirrors were accepted.

Trouble is Peter, the only course of action on a blog is an online petition and only thing that generates in force is apathy and would you believe it daft comments.

so how is it that Hull/Wigan were all set to sign him for £7M (which i'm assuming is not a loan fee) but we could only get him on loan...

I just think it's gonna be a stop gap for emergencies until Jan, when probably Arshavin and A N other will be signed...
