That ITKatfight yesterday was embarrassing, wasn't it?

It was a tad hilarious wasn't it? Maybe today Roger Morgan and BEN will indulge in a spot of light ITK pillow fighting or Archie and Dragon1 will arm wrestle.

Whats funny about is is neither will get the boot, especially kettle. My mate got punted for posting Ryantegans ITK that had a go at kettle.

As for ITK, it was good to see a bit of action yesterday but no doubt we will be another couple of weeks before we sign anyone yet.

Everton game will be fun.

Thing is, only one of them was trying to be confrontational/engaging in one-upmanship. POTL may be a great ITK (and I believe he works for the club, so his info is undoubtedly excellent), but as a person he appears a bit of a plank. Realise that's ITK-bashing in the clearest way possible; playing the man not the ball, but it's also just the way it is!

As far as I can see it, Peanut didn't engage in any ITK-bashing, the antagonism came exclusively from POTL...

The COYS lot will take that in the most awkward, difficult and offensive way possible and use to it moan. Well they would if it was any normal poster but i don't know how friendly they are towards peanut.

IMO if he was happy to come that would include his wages being dropped.

I don't see how a player would genuinly feel "happy to come" yet his wages, as if controller by some seperate group outwith himself, are what prevents him from coming.

Unless the terminology used should be more along the lines of "he will come if we pay him big money". Which shows him up to be a bit of a prick, not that we never already knew that.

There was ITK last week saying that he'd be happy to take a wage cut - interesting to find out how much of a cut!

Calm down petal.

Yes it is ITK and Dragon1 has had alot of info previously. The other ITK was suggesting a deal could be done for Adebayor so this info saying that a deal can't be done was worth posting up.

Has the theory about POTL being Mabbutt been thrown out now?

Nice to see that we are still trying for Llorente. Hopefully his visit to the lane will help convnce him to come.

Potl :

updates:

Blue- wages still the issue.
Yellow- trying to negotiate fee. Lack of willingness from other clubs to meet fee or show any concrete interest are working in our favour.

Diarra- looking more likely as the days go by.
Jj- correct has been offered an extended deal- mainly as happy to fight for a place/be a squad player.
Hutton- will go to villa.
Bentley- like trying to shift ice to an eskimo.
Gio- agreed sale to udinese.

There will be more.
