A Championship loan sounds nice. If he is is able to fight it out with rough defenders in the Championship for a season he'll do well as a backup in the PL later.
Even Norwich might be a good move
I think this is underrated in the lower divisions. He's already up against defenders for whom relegation is an absolutely disaster.

What's the situation with Kion Etete now and have Spurs given him the all-clear yet?
Still waiting. We don't know if he'll be available and it's out of our hands at the minute. He is Tottenham's player and they'll decide when he can return or not return. At the minute, I don't know, which is frustrating. Kion has been excellent since he came in and he and Alfie have struck up a relationship.
So you have had Kion Etete scanned, Spurs have had him scanned and you are now waiting for the green light for his return to action?
Yes, their radiologist's report is slightly different to what ours is so they want to go and have a look at him, so he's been back there. They've decided he needs an injection, but it's when that injection happens and that will dictate when he can play because there are protocols to jump through. I genuinely am in the dark over it, but we'll probably find out more on Thursday afternoon. He's a good player and he's been excellent for us. We've been good for him as well. He's definitely a really good foil for Alfie because he holds the ball up, he can run in behind and he can threaten a goal. I'd imagine he's been involved in three or four of Alfie's goals at least, with Kion putting them on a plate for him.

Broken legs at Cheltenham usually means getting shot?
Only if the player is a Norse..

Another relevant quote from the Cheltenhams manager's prematch press conference today:
He is 20, their manager got it wrong! He's a few months older than Parrott

Stacked, if one can stake a claim next season, might not need to spend much up too for 5-8years (even if only one makes squad for 2-3years, they all look Prem quality if lifestyle variables go their way, should generate good £ if not room for them here).
