i think itks, in their rush to make people feel better, try to give times as to when things are announced. for their own good, they should stay away from these.

I know why they do it, they are told by their sources that everything is done, and so they get a rush of blood to the head to calm down us hysterical mortals. But we just get more agitated when it's not announced.

A ballpark figure is something like 5% so it can be pretty decnt if say you're buying a TV or xbox from Amazon. It all adds up though so even on cheaper things like books and mp3s it makes a big difference to us :grin:

Nice, get the wife stuff from Ann Summers, she let's me get my xbox from Amazon, I get my FIFA12 from game.

Win win situation.

For the purposes of clarity - how many times has Mystery stated that a player will be signed by such and such?

Predicting times is pretty difficult I would imagine, so things could change very easily - so lets not get our hopes up.

Actually, on one occasion I wanted to post a bit of downbeat ITK about Chelski and Modric but I was told the mood in the ITK thread was too negative by the MODs.

But I was later allowed to post a bit of negative info, so I guess you are right to an extent.

anyone else find it strange that there was no official team news posted on the site yesterday or even today?

Us and City conspiring by not announcing that the deal was completed on Friday and Adebayor's going to turn up in the line-up an hour before KO :hump:

Just out of interest, this isn't going into the RO, but TheDon over on COYS :

Quick bit for you:

My friend spoke to Ade on Saturday (I have no idea how they met!) and he told him that he was definitely going to Spurs.

Straight from the horses mouth.

Bam.

Well if he's definitely signing we should just offer him £50 a week, and a lollypop.

Suggesting it will include a new signing? or more likely that were waiting until today to see which of the walking wounded are fit enough to play?

Would of had to registered a new signing last Friday so no.. Haven't been told anything or hinting at anything. Was just browsing the site for team news and found it really strange..We always release team news at least a day before the game...Think it all fits in with the Modric on strike stuff..

On Adebayor
" Well its a difficult one, the chairman has been talking to them about it (Man City)[sic]its a loan and its a great deal for a loan[sic]hopefully on loan he would be a great sigining for us"

On imminent signings
"I think we are close to brining a couple of players in[sic] Daniel Levy is working hard on it and I think we are close but we need to ship some out"

Harry on SSN ? I cant watch it right now, but I bet he's just regurgitated more bile and given the rags more excuses than they need to write stories about us.

We don't have to offer him anything. It's City who we have to deal with regards his wages. I'm not too sure they'd accept the £50, but I'm sure the lollypop would seal the deal, regardless.

Bam.
