Yeah lots of youth there and while most aren't blue chip the likes of Devine, Donley, Lankshear, Phillips id expect will have the best part of their careers at this level at least.

Theyve also a couple of other lads in Scottish prem whod be decent squad players at this level.

While its embarrassing as a spurs fan especially with rivals likely winning the title, the match going fans will love it. Theyll likely blast through the division. Sign some experienced players at this level for CDM and CB and they'd boss it.

The big names that havent delivered are the reason theyre in the battle they are now - so fire sale with Romero, VDV, Solanke etc and then building up from the likes of Gray, Bergval and the goalscoring CB thats Eastern European on loan and they could probably build better. One big step back to make a big move forward

Once the disappointment of being relegated has passed , their fans will have a blast in the Championshipā€¦

They will fill out the away ends at every ground they attendā€¦.

Going to Lincoln, Cardiff , Preston , Charlton, Bristol etc will be a new adventure for them and
their games will be on Sky virtually every weekā€¦

Disliked West Ham since 1979 (I think it was) when they failed to beat Cardiff at home (We won 2-1 away at Derby) & this ultimately sent Nobby Stiles PNE to relegation from the old Division 2. The play off final & the arrogance of their supporters served to deepen the dislike. I would still prefer to see Spurs relegated. Just for the away day

It was 1981 but I know what you mean. I think they missed a penalty as well. How about Wolves miraculously survive, and both Hammers and Spurs along with Bumley drop?

Took 19 years to return on that occasion
 
Another two assists this weekend. Only part of his game that was lacking
 
Looked like the only player today who wanted a win.
New contract Hughes really grips me when, in an attacking position, heā€™d rather protect the ball into touch rather than whipping another cross into the box.

We have had some good loans over the last few years, but this lad for me has been the best (for us)

Hmm id have said Archer, Iverson and VDB better for us. Alvaro not far off.

But hes been a really good loan signing. If the money is there he really should be signed up. Dobbin as well

Heā€™s been much better than Archer for sure. Camā€™s stint with us was good but a little overrated in terms of contributions.

Sepp is still the best loan weā€™ve had IMO. Iā€™d put him over McGeady just in terms of the level he was at and how weā€™ve never replaced even close to what he offered

Archer was the best forward (for us) we've had at this level for the months he was here imo. Could do most things - its such a shame his career has filtered out since while

Pickford as well deserves a mention.

Forgot about McGeady. As an older player kinda doesn't feel the same as the others

Pickford trumps Sepp imo.

Good debate to be had though.
 
McGeady is the best loan player we've had at this level. He took the absolute piss out of almost every team in the league for months on end. Absolute joke of a player. The only player we've maybe in my lifetime that was worth the season ticket cost alone to watch. Loved every second of his spell.

I think he came close to generating the same excitement as Fuller when he got the ball.

I really struggle to rate any keeper higher than an outfielder, especially with our general success in that area since promotion. In terms of pedigree, itā€™s absolutely Pickford (although Alvaro may surpass that soon)
