White heads back to Saints

By Wendy Gee -  

STRIKER Jamie White is on his way back to Saints after a three month loan with Blue Square South promotion hopefuls Eastleigh.

Ex-Saint Ian Baird, manager of the non-League side, had been keen to keep the 20-year-old for the rest of the campaign.

But after two injury-wrecked seasons, Harefield-based White wants to show Saints boss Alan Pardew what he is capable of before his contract runs out in July.

“It’s a weird one really,” said Baird.

“I said to Jamie that I would like to keep him at Eastleigh, but after three months we can’t loan him month-to-month any more and we would have to take him until the end of the season.

“Jamie’s taken advice off his agent and he wants to give himself every chance of impressing the new manager (Pardew) and I don’t blame him for that.

“He’s been out injured for a long time and he wants to give it a bit of a crack there.”
