Well well well..........

STILL no signings. STILL no sales. Despite ITK to the contrary, things don't seem to be moving along. We've had half of may, June and July and a third of August, roughly eighty five days to do some buying and selling and now we cling to the hope we're going to do it all in the last 20 or so days open to us.

Went shopping at Asda yesterday looking to buy a 42 inch HDTV.....asked if they price matched with their Tottenham store. Nice try said the manager. Then I saw that twat James Corden..........."Bloody hell, I wouldn't have expected to see you here" I said..........."Just because i'm famous doesn't mean I can't shop here" He replied..............."I wasn't talking about that, this is the Fruit & Veg aisle you fat ****"

Yesterday's ITK began at 9.57am

I am in a position to reveal a bit more.
Wages have been a big issue this window.
Star of Real Madrid should be announced soon.
Some other things in the pipeline which may split the opinion of the fans.

Then

Haha wow. Reality check. We are are not going to sign Kaka or Ronaldo.
You wont be disappointed though.

Wages again :cry:

Then, here on SC some news.........

Detailed talks took place with Llorente and Bibao over the weekend, but looking unlikely now, if it happens it will be last minute .com, same with Rossi and Adebayor.

My contact says he still expects something from left field and that people from the club are working their nuts off to get people out and upto three "top" players in.

The Diarra situation was very close on Friday, but PSG may have turned his head. Expect something announced tomorrow Tuesday. He thinks one in and two out, but Internationals could delay medicals etc.

I'd still love to know what this 'working their nuts off' business actually means. By all accounts we've been working very hard for a large part of last summer, January and again this summer. The sum total? Not very fucking much at all.

Next up was an update from Mystery.........

Howdy Folks!

Been a while since I've been here, this time of the year is always busy for me :bang:

There hasn't been much happening to be honest, a little bit to report but nothing major.

Llorente - We did speak to him before and after the match, but things have to be done by the book, so we couldn't make a formal approach.

Diarra - I've had no info on this deal, ever. I heard he was at the PSG game last night, surely if that's true, then I doubt he wil be signing for us.

Adebayor - As already stated by other people, wages are an issue, also his first choice is RM

The Chubby One - A bid will be made this week, both HR and DL agree he would be brilliant for us.

Outgoings - Again, not too much info on this side of things, It's going to be really hard to convince people to take a pay cut and leave London.

The Chubby One appears to be Ezequiel Lavezzi - Stoof

Suddenly doubt on the Diarra deal. Ooooh.

Then POTL :roll:

Hello pocket Dyanmo.

Why the need to keep mentioning Diarra? Didn't you sat 'deal' a day or two ago?

This guy on COYS doesn't claim to be ITK

Don't claim to be itk, however i know a scout who gets decent info from time to time, met him the other day after not seeing him for a long time
Just got a text saying We have now tabled an official bid for Rossi around the £27million pound mark.
He also did add that in his opinion he really couldn't see Rossi coming to us and giving up playing in the champions league
As i said i dont claim to be itk, just thought i would pass on what he told me, If i can ill try find out some more info.

Interesting stuff if accurate.

And now for a message from the Carlo Cudicini..........

Spurs goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini would like to see you make a donation to help keep Spurs Community running. He said.....

"What's-a matter you, hey, gotta go donate
What-a you t'ink you do, why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place
Ah, donate to the place"

CARLO SAYS HAVE YOU DONATED YET? WELL HAVE YOU?
EVERY LITTLE HELPS!

RJ1882 · Aug 9, 2011

Lawrence · Aug 9, 2011

I reckon diarra soon then it will be a deadline signing of adebayor or nothing..don't get your hopes up..

Twizzle · Aug 9, 2011

we're Spurs fans, we're always hopeful

Babylon22 · Aug 9, 2011

Is the diarra deal done?

Graysonti · Aug 9, 2011

I think we will sign that strikers (s)

talkshowhost86 · Aug 9, 2011

Well I think we've made our point on the streets of London about how much we want a striker. Maybe it'll happen now?

Have you seen it announced ANYWHERE?????

CAS_GG · Aug 9, 2011

Not sure if this was posted in last thread but posted by Dragon1 on Coys early this morning.

as widely reported diarra should be joining and we will let wilson move to stoke,dl has got two possibly 3 other deals lined up he wants to shift some more of our squad players before sealing the deals,daniel dont care that the season starts sat he wants to pay as little for those coming and get as much for those going so deals will happen late on ie last wk of aug ,i could not find out who we have lined up i tried

yozza · Aug 9, 2011

Cheers for the round up A&C :up:

Very good :rofl:

brasil_spur · Aug 9, 2011

Diarra in Palacios out is a great squad upgrade IMO, assuming we don't lose too much on the deal it's a great bit of business. But FFS where is the striker we neeed!

Would probably mean that the only striker we may buy is Adebayor since the other clubs won´t be able to find replacements in time.

vavaboom · Aug 9, 2011

Who's the chubby one?

Lavezzi

Scutch · Aug 9, 2011

Barnes Spurs again :

anyway little update i asked him if he had anymore information and he kept it short and precise

leandro will become a spurs player, not a matter of if but more when

also non related to spurs man city today have stepped up there pursuit of nasri today and are very confident of signing him

that's it for now

talkshowhost86 · Aug 9, 2011

Disappointing if Levy wasn't at least trying to get people in before the first game of the season. I hope that bit isn't true.

Archibald&Crooks · Aug 9, 2011

Don't like the sound of the latest ITK. Flies in the face of the ITK we had at the start of the window saying 'lessons have been learned'

Not very encouraging.
