"Sven said just loan nothing more. So Hobbs is still a fox."
Sven's just hedging his bets here, which is quite a clever move really. If we get promoted then I suspect Hobbsy will be off permanently because as much as I love the lad he isn't (and I'm not sure whether he ever will be) Premiership standard. By bigging him up and appearing reluctant to sell we'll be in a far better position to drive the price up if this happens.
If we don't get promoted we can simply recall Jack, who will think that we never wanted to sell him, and we've got a good champo player back on our books. Hopefully he'll have had a good spell with Hull and will be feeling confident and wanted by Sven who can put him back in the side. We don't need him at the moment so why let a young lad rot on the bench?
Good business all round and I hope he does well for you Tigers.
Spot on matey .... I hope NP has out FOXED (pardon the pun) and got an offer in the lad at a price we will pay though. He has a lot of potential oooops sorry no potential at all ...... ( dont want to push his price up)
