Jack Harper - what's the latest?

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

I know he was carrying an injury when he joined us from Real Madrid but do we know how far off full fitness he is?

 

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

He's been busy at Nando's and buying a new Merc

 

[Eeyore]

He was only playing for their youth team. A good prospect, yes, but I do feel that the media hype is greater than his immediate value to this year's challenge.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Still a youth teamer that's not played a first team game in his life.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Kinda forgotten about him already. I hope he comes good obviously, but there isn't masses of pressure on him to do so, which can only be a good thing.

 

[Leyton Gull]

Probabaly groping one of the new clipper gals on the bus. Oh sorry! I don't mean that Jack Harper wha wha wha wha wha whaaarrrr

What's the latest with Hambo?

What's the latest with Hambo?

I suspect he may be taking some time to adjust to English football, since he has yet to make the U21 squad.
In other news: he lives near me so I have seen him walking about. Tall and broad but not particularly intimidating-looking.

He recovered from his initial minor ankle injury that he had when he signed, but then rolled his ankle again.

He's been injured too, so I suspect that is the reason he hasn't made an U21 squad.

Ahh I missed that. Thanks.

I assume no one knows the answer

 

[severnside gull]

Last time this thread did the circuit I think the expectation was early October for Hambo to be training fully and mid to late October for Harper.
My forecast for what it's worth is that there will be at least one more round of "where's Hambo/Harper?" before we see anything of them.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

If we are shit in October, Hambo will come to the rescue.

 

[footychick]

Thought he was going to be back to full training in October at some point.

 

[Rogero]

All these are good questions and no one seems to know the answers.

We even have a self-promoting resident journalist who loves teasing us with his scoops and yet I doubt he knows the answer either (not Not Andy Naylor, the other one). That's NSC for you.

Well if he grew a hipster beard, wore skinny jeans, and ate expensive cereal he would certainly intimidate those Class War chappies.

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Hambo and Harper....has a sort of ring about it....could be a comedy duo?.....or a variety act?.....or a legal team?....or a department store?....or a pair of tv detectives?
