I have hope.

Hope that one day i'll look through this thread without someone 'solving' the B&Y cryptic and posting it triumphantly as if they'd discovered the secret of making pure gold out of camel shit.

Surely solving the B&Y cryptic means you've discovered purest green?

It's Falcao. I promise you, it's Falcao.

Or Rossi. Actually, could be Damiao? No, it's Adebayor because he has a B AND a Y in his name. Or...

No, it's Falcao. Definitely Falcao.

No doubt there'll be a tenuous link to any possible big signing

The 9:45 mega update...

We're putting in an official complaint about Chelsea, btw

Surely you only like footballers with teen wolf amounts of body hair?

Anyway....

Rebrab have you heard anything about us bidding for Diarra?

No, but given that we've bidded for him before and that he's been left out of RM's preseason tour squad, all the signs point to it!

Vucinic to decide future today apparently.

Speculation:
Spanish sources suggesting that Juventus have won the race for Villarreal's Italian striker Giuseppe Rossi - who is wanted by Tottenham.


Skysports.

thought i'd chip in here. i said on my latest update that rossi was a non-starter. i kinda didn't believe it myself when i was told, or didn't want to, but that is what i was flat out told. and DL won't sign parker. and citeh won't sell us adebayor.

if we get none of these, i will go back to 100% trust in my source, rather than the 95% it had slipped down to after being told the above...

if we lose he who must not be named, samba + diarra + n'zogbia + unidentified amazing number 9 would make for a great window. i'm liking this 4-2-3-1 formation that people have come up with. tasty.

the three i mentioned above, rossi, adebayor, parker.

and as for the comment on conflicting ITK, it's because at least 50% of sources are the WUMs or the BS, not the ITK themselves. i say that because at least 50% of the ITK is so wide of the mark, it can't be a case of misunderstanding or deals going wayward.

i think we will. just probably not one that the majority of this forum want. i think realistic targets are llorente, vucinic, rodallega, odemwingie... just not rossi, adebayor, falcao, drogba etc

i also think this m**** saga may put off certain strikers who would join us thinking they can move to cheatski/manure in a couple of years. which is never what we want, but i'd take, say, falcao for 2 seasons rather than odemwingie for 4.

sorry mate, didn't write it very well. basically saying that i was told no chance on rossi & adebayor, and that we haven't wanted parker since last window. because of all the chat on here about those three, i started to doubt my own source. but if none of those deals happen/all three go elsewhere, ill realise i should trust 100% in my source.

think that's a bit clearer!? haha.

Keep and eye on Kenwyne Jones, Carlton Cole is off to Stoke, could be a replacement for Jones.......

I've just submitted a not particularly interesting bit of ITK - Kyle Naughton should be joining QPR today according to someone I know. They have a load of signings they are trying to push through which I have also mentioned in the post, only Naughton is relevant to us though.

No idea on loan or permanent. What you've said about Warnock on Sky would tie in with what I was told as the players they are supposedly signing are mostly free transfers - Bothroyd, DJ Campbell, Kieron Dyer and Jimmy Bullard (the first three supposedly done very soon, Bullard towards the end of the week as he's away with Hull at the moment).

Holy Shit!

Was just looking at this SO report of a friendly match played between our youth team and Rwanda which featured Christian Ceballos whilst on trial:

http://www.spursodyssey.com/1011/u17rwanda.html

Guess what colours Rwanda played in...

File Blue and Yellow under solved.

POTL RE Disconosebleeds Naughton Info
Nothing agreed there yet. Likely to go though- will be a one year loan. They have also signed Bothroyd-all completed.

Good Post.

Luka situation is getting boring. Not for Sale. Done.

B&Y

POTL

Roger Morgan on SO just posted.


edit - Knee injury about Sandro obviously

Football_Agent9 on twitter: "On the Leandro front, I still 'know' he will be a Spurs player this season"

Roger Morgan linked us with Granero an hour ago.

Just seen CorlukaModrics update. Can back up to the point that we have been heavily interested in bringing in Diarra for a few months now as one of my own update has pointed out previously.

Good news I reckon we put in a bid. My source has not told me if we have or haven't but I wouldn't be surprised.

We will need a player of his calibre when Wilson is sold and now that Sandro is injured.

i was told Harry's not going, due to court case. Levy's working on the transfers anyway, not Harry

This. A relation to Harry told me this over two weeks ago,
Although the date may have been pushed back since then

It's Falcao. £27-30 million bid should do it? 90k a week wages once we've moved deadwood and Modric has apologised. Another South American to follow

NOT itk

took me 5 bottles of peroni to get thru this thread. I wish there was more than 1 left. I need another 5 now. There is blue and yellow colours on the bottle of peroni, I think we are signing Nastro Azzurro.

Lets face it, this blue and yellow stuff is bullshit, its not even a cryptic clue, its nothing. I dont see why if this guy has some info he cant share it. I presume its relating to a big name (or two) and as such its not like the player wont be known. If it is someone like Falcao then by letting a few people on a forum know is not going to suddenly alert clubs like Madrid and Barcelona to his availability and subsequently ruin our bid.

Like most reasonable people I take all ITK with a pinch of salt and if information is being passed on then Im not going to bash anyone and believe it is genuinely being passed on in good faith but for this shit to be dragging on so long is ridiculous.

:bang:
This, if it was rossi it would of been done by now!!

Looks like Roma are about to officially anounce the signing or Erik Lamela (19yr old Argie who they chucked £17million at relegated River Plate for). Wonder where Vucinic will end up , i'll eat my hat if he goes to Blackburn Eek
