The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 21 July 2011

This is very interesting. Usually we hear a name and then all of a sudden, every ITK is claiming that it is close. The reason for that may well be that the deal is close and every ITK is getting similar information. However, it could also be that one or two people know something, and the rest quickly jump on the bandwagon. I think The Journo's contradictory ITK might give us all an insight into which of the two previously mentioned scenarios is true. More obviously, it'll also tell us how good The Journo's info is!

Strange one from the journo, I think id rather Vucinic than Huntelaar to be honest!

not sure if its blind faith but i tend to beleive POTL more and he said Vucinic was close

Especially as they are all so aligned now on the idea of 2 of Vucinic, Adebayor and Rossi (in that order of likelihood).

Exactly...it would throw the whole 'ITK circle' into disrepute :grin:

Completely confused now, what direction would we like to be going in if a talented, versatile striker would be a bad window. Not shooting the messenger as any information is interesting, this window is just giving me the shits though.

Oh massively, hunelaar is turd. Hence why he has been shipped around Europe since leaving Holland.

Either this Jouro character is right and the other ITK's are wrong or vice versas. I hope the latter.

Courtneyjd · Jul 21, 2011

I'm not having 'The Journo'!

If the people in charge of transfers think Huntelaar is better than Vucinic they need their heads examined.

And if the journo listened to Harry Redknapp's interview the day before, he said that the chairman is trying to do a deal for Adebayor, so how he can get 'negative' feedback from his source re: Adebayor but then quote Harry the day after about a couple of signings?

Sounds suspect to me

I just wonder if the Journo's source has a vested interest in Schalke and is trying to drum up interest, as it contradicts almost everything I have heard this window. As Mr Pink says, if we sign one of them then a lot of people will have some serious questions to ask their sources. However, I don't doubt his legitimacy as he has been strongly backed by Stoof and the mods... hmmn interesting one :think: we shall see anyway! Hope he's wrong tbh as I would much rather Vucinic than Farfan or Huntelaar.

The opposite direction to Vucinic would be either Can't Control, or some newfound hope in the 'not quite so bad-ness' of Defrouchenko.

smudger · Jul 21, 2011

can a mod tell us how good 'the journos' source is?

coz he's come from nowhere making bold claims.

i hate change, i like the trusty old ITK's lol

tobi · Jul 21, 2011

KJH must be bored of being linked with a move every summer.

KJH and Farfan wouldn't qualify as big signings.

well, very strange for me that latest info...as it sounded yesterday if truth be told. Infact if its accurate then it raises questions regarding other ITKs and what they actually know.

I'll think i'll go with the historic ITK's rather than Jonny come lately, whose information doesn't seem in any way to fit wither with anything else which has been said or even what we would realistically be looking to do this window.

His attempt to support his own info by saying that Harry mentioned a "couple" of big signings and he brought us ITK of Huntelaar and Farfan is poor . Harry has been saying since last season that we are looking to bring in three top,top players in order to challenge. In addition, the only thing big about Huntelaar is his name.

Farfan being regarded as a big signing is laughable.

I believe someone said his info does not come from THFC. It is hard to see who other than the club and agents would have this type of info so i am putting it down to ill informed agent talk.

Wouldn't be surprising if a wanna be journlaist (as i think he called himself) hooked up with an agent who he thinks can provide him hot gossip.

POTL on COYS in response to earlier Joe Cole rumours...

Followed by the resigning of Gary Doherty

Good

hugrr · Jul 21, 2011

Oh god, we're signing Doherty again.....

The Journo is Josef Schnusenberg trying to flog his deadwood via SC :shrug:

The Journalist should've had a different name - The Messenger

could've finished every post with "don't shoot the Messenger"

it would've pissed Bromavici off no end. In fact, can I change my name to The Messenger? :grin:

The Journalist said:
I stick with my original post about Huntelaar and Farfan, which ironically I posted 24 hours before Harry Redknapp details that Tottenham are “working hard to bring in a couple of big signings” in an interview with SKYSPORTSNEWS.

Sorry but that did make me laugh :lol:

Totally agree, but I think we should be respectful when people are posting information in good faifth.

BEN reposted this from a Cardiff forum, and I saw it via COYS...

can guarantee Bellamy is signing for Tottenham not on loan but a full transfer on a 3 year deal. Yes I understand how this sounds, why would Man City sell to Tottenham who are a top 5 premier league team, yes Bellamy has stated numerous times he only wants to play for Cardiff and he wants to be close to home. Bellamy is 100% signing for Tottenham. No doubt there will be people on here denying this totally but I just hope this thread stays fresh for the next few days.

If your wondering how I know well my brother in law is good friends of the family. Regulary up his house. Hes asked for this news not to come out yet but i fancied poping it on the board.

Im not claiming to be ITK or best friends with all the Cardiff City players like some people on here but this will be happening.
