looks like assou ekotto will not be heading back to spurs anytime soon, taking the piss out the club that pay his wages, not very professional at all, and don't get me started on ade, very classless, if they did it to my club. I would chin them
I wouldn't be too sure about that: http://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/clause-means-spurs-can-recall-assou-ekotto
"I wouldn't be too sure about that" Recall from lower league clubs seems to be a standard loan clause. You know this of course from the time of Kyle Walker. Carroll is another one to consider (though which PL club would be interested given his current physical frailty is another story) .
RDBD, are you the guy that launched into a tirade against us having two of your players on loan when I started a thread about Harry returning to Spurs a few weeks back? Because your two replies to me on this thread have been verging on contemptuous.
Nobody's touchy. It was me that was pointing it out to the Fulham poster that there's every chance he could be returning, for God's sake! It was you on that other thread that time, wasn't it?
I don't know if it holds any water but are "season long" loans different to simple "loans"? Off the Tottenham Hotspur F.C. wiki:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tottenham_Hotspur_F.C. Out on loan: No. Position Player 28 MF Tom Carroll (at Queens Park Rangers until the end of the 2013–14 season) 29 MF Jake Livermore (at Hull City until the end of the 2013–14 season) 32 DF Benoît Assou-Ekotto (at Queens Park Rangers until the end of the 2013–14 season)
Oh dear, the perils of using wikipedia as a definitive subject matter source. Livermore is a PL to PL club loan. Like Townsend was to you last season. They are season long. For lower league clubs, recall clauses are logical simply in case a player progresses rapidly. In which case you can recall, and then re-loan upwards (as was done for Walker) . For BAE, no doubt AVB was thinking of QPR as a "gulag" . A loan with a recall clause we can safely say he had no intention of using, other than to sell BAE.
wikipedia is not the most accurate source of info. There are universities that forbid its students from using it as a citation source in their coursework for this very reason. BBC Spurs606 once repeatedly edited the wikipedia page on THFC a couple of years back to prove this point (the old hands might remember the "Paddy Longlegs" "Hotspur FC" incident) .
I'd be pretty worried about any academic institution that permitted citations from wikipedia, even in kindergarten it would be borderline.
I know, that's why I qualified my statement so you wouldn't come back as you did. It was in vein This isn't a University pal. Its an online footy forum FFS!
I would like to know the context of that tweet. Was the photo taken before the game? Also BAE has been in the crowd watching Spurs games and tweeting messages of support often enough for us all to know that he's not "laughing at the club". Though TBH I do not care either way. This sort of thing is just soap opera, gossip, nonsense. We sacked our best manager for decades for non-footballing reasons and that has now (surprise surprise) turned out to be a disastrously ******ed move. So getting rid of a fantastic LB who's only ever shown commitment and ability where it matters (the pitch) when we're in a self-made defensive crisis would be hugely dumb. Any new manager needs to walk through that door and say to himself "Why the bloody hell are this clubs best striker and LB not playing?!"
They have both done those "gang signs" (for lack of a better term) in other photos. They aren't taking the piss out of us conceding 5. It took me 2mins of research yesterday to find this out, everyone needs to stop overreacting (not aimed at you Lenny)
you are joking of course,look at his tweet!,we don't need him,Rose is better and Fryers will be an adequate replacement
