However surprise surprise the only person seen at Parkhead was Sir Alex Ferguson! Now whether he was actually there to run the rule over someone (as expected) or maybe he was invited .....who knows.
The simple thing is this, AVB according to the reports was taking a look at Hooper himself, the Daily Mail have pictures of Ferguson there and nothing of anyone from Tottenham (no one from Tottenham was even mentioned in the article!).
So I think I may have been right to avoid putting that story out there in the first place and wrong to thinking that the dots were connecting.
In all honesty I know that some people regard Hooper quite highly, but to me the Scottish league has lost its competitive edge after Rangers were liquidated, so as to whether Hooper would fare well in the Premier League for Tottenham (under AVB's style) I am not so sure.
Whether he was let go as a school boy or not from Tottenham I am very unsure if he had the quality then or now. If they gave him to us on a loan I would take it, but to buy now and in excess of £10million.... I still have too many questions.
Finally ask yourself this, if he is that good a striker why didn't Newcastle try to buy him when they were desperate for a striker? I think it’s another typical paper story on our interest in Hooper and his agent doing well to get his contract demands accepted!
COYS!!!
