And up until the lad from Spurs signed, all four would have walked back into our best starting XI based on this season so far.
and not played because yet again they are injured

Seems pretty vague.

How does a loan with an option to buy actually work? And how is any potential future fee calculated? Would it be done at the time, or further down the line - perhaps on a sliding scale based on performance during the loan?

Cool, so if Jephcott goes some way to offsetting the lack of goals from last season he’ll be back at Plymouth by January

They’ve fucked it

Surely it's just a simple case of

If they recall him, we just trigger the buy option and sign him permanently. 

Which we'd be keen to do anyway if he does well.

If he does shit, they won't recall him anyway.

The way the article is written suggests to me that the purchase clause is not de-facto invokable from our side

Could well just be the way it's written, could be only active after n games, could be we get first refusal *if* they sell.

impossible to know

Swindon stated when they signed Jephcott they had the option to turn the loan into a permanent transfer but Dewsnip said: "It's not a discussion at this moment in time."

edit: My interpretation at the time was this was just the deal we came up with to protect us against McKirdy deal not going through and having to stump up Jephcott's fee without the MMcKirdy cash. So it would make sense we could instead buy in Jan if we choose to.

Not sure it would be fair on Plymouth. Maybe they have their own clause to protect themselves.

So the general principle on such deals according to Ryan Whelan
   - club would get first refusal to meet Plymouth's valuation/another bidding club
   - player can still refuse (or presumably not agree terms)

But that's just 'in general'. Our actual deal is obviously confidential and could be very different.

Worry about it later. He's had 30 minutes during a limp team display. Its a problem that hasn't happened yet

No. Well yes, a bit.

let's say he bangs in loads of goals. January comes, he gets recalled.

We trigger the buy option, but his agent gets wind that another club wants him too.

Jephcott doesn't agree personal terms with us as he can get more money elsewhere.

And at this point, we'd have fucked it.

If the worst case scenario is he bangs in loads of goals for the next four months and then goes I'm cool with that.

Bangs in loads of goals would mean that we'd also have been singing "we are Lindsey's red & white army" at some stage. Shirley?

Equally the opposition could have been banging in loads of goals at the same time. Not convinced that that will be the case though, says he ahead of a 0-4 drubbing.
