Although we have Kevin, Scott Brown etc on extended contracts this is just to ensure a transfer fee and not on the basis the players will last this time.

Unfortuantely if Spurs came in with an offer, I doubt we'd refuse it, although the players have shown commitment in signing these new deals, so maybe they want to stay here for another couple of seasons to learn their trade a bit more.

[Decal Joe]

I said it when GOC went to Loko and I'll say it again now!

I think it's a great boost for our Club that Teams such as Spurs and those elsewhere in Europe are looking at our Players! Not just the OF and Championship rubbish!

I'd hate to see our good players go, but if they must surely it's better to see them depart for teams with the calibre of Tottenham Hotspur.

IMO it would be to tempting for him

Aye, you wouldnie grudge them a move to the premisership though, at least they wouldnie get wasted like they would if they moved to the smellies.

It would be a great move for either brown or thomson imho. Look at the way young players have been given their chance for spurs this season almost similiar to hibs and if they made the champions league it may tip the balance in them actually making a bid. I think spurs would be fair too with a bid in the region of maybe £1.5 million+ coming from them for either player a price you would think hibs would seriously consider.

[Dr.Gonzo]

Couldn't grudge him a move to Spurs - it's a club that's finally going somewhere again.

Just to be petty with the article, notice how the word Celtic was in Bold and underlined twice. Wheras Hibs are just normal text. God I'm petty

Agreed,

But until we can compete with bigger clubs this will continue to happen.

Some thoughts - firstly, amazing how this story was released just before we playn Celtic = traditional media unsettling of the team proir to playing OF teams.
Secondly, if true, then it would be a great experience for the player as Spurs have great training facilities comapred to us.
Thirdly, we would miss him hugely as this side is slowly being unpicked with Gary O'C, Caldwell, Riordan and now Thomson on the move. We would have to be patient as TM rebuilds, and see if another crop of talented teenagers can make it in the top of the Scottish game.
Fourthly, the new contracts the players signed were partially a statement of faith in Hibs, and Hibs insuring themselves for sales to make sure some money comes in to develop training facilities, ER, and pay the interest on our debts. This last point seems to hot at our business plan which is the groom good young players to sell on and then invest in developing even better players, but this model depends on investment in training facilities, coaching and good communication with communities to let kids spend time with Hibs.

does anyone think that thomo will get a game over carrick and jenas a hope so if he goes a doubt hel go though.

[Tony]

Good point. However, in terms of his development, he may well be sold the dream of playing and training in the Prem.League, and working with world class players. The extra wedge may well have some sway too. On the other hand, a year or more in the reserves will not do much for his Scotland chances so stay and play with Hibs Kevin

Why wouldn't he go?

its not his desicion while hes under contract is it.

Couldnt grudge Thommo the move but I reckon he'd be more sensible not to go there. He is a good player no doubt but the competition ahead of him is pretty good. They also have plenty midfielders making it even harder.

I agree with that. Although I would be dissapointed he left, I couldn't blame him for going. However I don't think he would get into the first 11 especially for the next few years. They've got players like Davids, Carrick, Jenas, Aaron Lennon and even Danny Murphy who are all probably better than him. I'm not saying he's not good by the way cause I think he is a great player.

Davids, Finished
Carrick, Good player but Thomsons better.
Jenas. Overated
Aaron. See above
Lennon.

Danny Murphy. Finished,was good in the Liverpool team. Found out at Charlton, and now canny get a game for Spurs.

Thomson would walk into the Spurs midfield. Although he'll need to start learning how to use his right leg,and how to win a header. But apart from that, he's better than what they have at the moment.

Thomson is a good player and could make it in the Premiership. If Barry Fegushun can do it then Thommo certainly can. But I'm not so sure that if we had Carrick and Jenas at Hibs, Thomson would be getting his game. They've also got Teemu Taino at Spurs aswell who is a good player to have in the middle. Carrick can pass a ball and has an element that Thomson doesnt have that he can shoot. Jenas has more pace than Thommo, is good at running with a ball and can also shoot. I just think they are allround better players than Thommo.

You wearing your green goggles Garry ? Thommo better than Carrick ? Jenas is a superb player on his day, as is Davids. Lennon is superb as well. They are all full internationals for their country apart from Lennon. Spurs are clear 4th in the premiership, the midfield must be doing something right.
