Why are people taking this as gospel? No offence to the poster but it's his first post and has gone against quite alot of respected ITK's who have good records.

Jesus christ guys, get the salt out. If nothing does happen, then you can all slit your wrists like some are already doing.

First post on the board - goes against all other ITK - good way to introduce yourself


Ade stuck due to wages, Llorente very unlikely, Diarra almost done, Rossi, Kaka, Nilmar, Etoó no way, Samba enquiring about, Keane possibly on loan to Leicester.


Not really "going against all other ITK", this is more or less what everyone's saying now.

What if it's true though? Another season of two metre Peter, Defoe & Pav! I don't know why we don't be a bit more realistic instead of flirting with these foreign based strikers and then keep getting embarrassingly slapped down. Why not try for Odemwingie & Hugo Rodallega?

Quick bit of info. ( My source is reliable, He has told me stuff before but i don't think it's wise to post on Internet Forums but there is a first time for everything)

Llorente = DEAD IN THE WATER, He doesn't want to leave and his agent has told Levy, We are moving on. He also wants CL Football if Bilbao sell him but he is not demanding a move.

Adebayor = We were interested but deal is dead, Adebayors wages are silly and City are not even willing to pay 1p to help us. This deal won't happen because Daniel won't offer 180k per week. We don't want to buy him

Diarra = Verbal agreement betweek Levy and Diarra's people regarding wages, Levy is trying to get haggle Madrid's asking price slightly down but this deal wll happen.

Rossi = He has rejected us as he wants CL football

Nilmar = Harry wants somebody to lead the line and money can be spent elsewhere

Eto = We enquired but Eto's wages and Inter's asking price has killed interest

Kaka = Nothing, Don't know where this link has come from and we can't afford him.

Samba = Blackburn want cash, We ain't offering much cash until deadwood leave.

Keane = Erikkson enquired for Loan but Levy wants to sell.

OH :shrug:

I think secret spurs is probably more spot on, than any other ITK in my opinion.

I don't really care. I'm going to the Bilbao game tomorrow, I'm excited about going to WHL for the first time since May. I couldn't care if Big Brad F starts up front, I'm just looking forward to 9 months of bliss. I don't know about you guys, but June and July are my least favourite months of the year!

The thing is, SecretSpurs' info does seem pretty believable just based on the reasons why

I fully agree. Going cold turkey from football is always really tough. Even in World Cup years, I'm not really bothered for World Cups. Spurs is what I'm all about!

So, so glad to have football back!

That's because people are always willing to believe "no one wants to sign for us" and "Levy won't sanction the cash for the move"

Cos that's how we operate. We don't offer big money, we tend not to buy big name players. VDV aside.

Be nice to Secret Spur. When it's believable itk, everyone says 'I could've told you that'. When it's unrealistic itk, everyone calls bullshit.

I miss the pre internet days when I knew nothing about anything until the Evening Standard (back when it cost 35p) announced we were about to sign John Hartson, only for the West End Final issue on the same day to announced that he had failed his medical.
