Where would we be without George?

[jonnyt1]

I saw him at the early season home game v Accrington and posted about how impressed I was with him (and McGoldrick) then. Maybe the Bros, if they believe in buying cheap and selling for lots, could rattle their piggy bank harder and buy him now and sell for a fortune in 2 year's time? It would be a relative cheap, of course.

No chance. He'll be playing Prem Football within 2 years staying at Spurs and they know it as does he.

They are very good owners with a clear eye for talent but they aren?t miracle workers or magicians.

Can we get him on loan next season and if not someone similar? Probably

Mikey Moore has been in the Spurs team this season at 17
George will be 20 in August
I'd think they will use him in pre-season games before deciding the next steps

The Gillingham loss played a part in convincing me. Horrendous "welcome to big boys' football" non tackle by Gillingham player (Clark) in the first few mins which put George on the track. [imho a yellow and a half but got nothing from an awful ref]. Cue, five minutes or so later and dirty Gill loses out in a 50/50 where George went in with a hardness that belied his build, age, and experience (but said everything about his courage and attitude) which left the Gill crumpled and in no doubt who was top dog. The crowd near me was on its feet applauding.

Ha ha yep I can remember that. One of the few players in our team with a bit of edge.

Spurs would never sell George Abbott as they obviously believe he's a future first teamer.

We have Robertson to come back next season! Ok no Abbott but he might be capable of filling the void if he needs to...! Hinchy looked good when he came on...!! X

What George's loan has done is it has shown that we can be trusted with other clubs' talent and that we can bring them along with our style of football and methods.
It has been a win win loan.
It's similar with Zak Johnson.
We seem to have a good relationship with Sunderland as we had Patterson on loan a couple of years back and he has gone on to first team duties.

As I said in my ratings from last night I think Abbott is one of the best and most consistent players I have seen in a Notts jersey in many a year... just oozes class...I saw some people said he misplaced a few passes against Mk Dons but he won so many duels and bossed that midfield last night... has he ever been less than a 7/10 all season?...plus he's made of granite...never injured.. he will go on to have a very good career because he has his head screwed on...when he arrived he was a whippet of a chap who had a lot to learn...when he leaves he will be a man who has had an amazing first season in man's football..and hopefully with a promotion on his CV 😀

I thought Hinchy looked class in the short time he was on. Obviously wanting to show what he can do. He is only 22 so lots of time to keep on improving.

Hinchy managed to stand out in just a few minutes, didn't he? Bit hold and cold over the season, but he has good pedigree. Must be an exciting time to be a young upncoming player at Notts with George Abbott showing everyone what real match fitness is, real commitment to the game - lots of ability of course, but also lots of old fashioned application. Great role model for the likes of Jarvis, Whitaker, Hinchy...
