So, I wonder what has changed with Coentrao. Last we heard was that he wasn't keen on joining us. Maybe he's been told, in the bluntest possible terms, that he is surplus at RM. It is a WC yr after all.

Maybe no other club else is forthcoming

Or potentially one of our targets came in through city airport. Now I am not going to trawl through the flight list from today/yesterday. But I am sure there are people on here who will.... fly nerds fly!!
just had a quick look (nerd) and there are plenty of flights from Holland.

Doesn't that seem rather unlikely though?

Not for the price he would command and the clubs he would be willing to move to. IMO the only reason he hasn't joined yet is because he is trying to get us to meet his wage demands, if Monaco don't offer him the World before Monday, I think he is likely to come here at the 80K a week we are offering.

This isn't funny. On this one, Harry was dead on. He needed leadership and determination to avoid the drop and was stuck with a bunch of overpaid players that were phoning it in. So if you have a chance at possibly the best player you've ever managed......you give him a call

And Ledley, even on his knees and at this age........is probably still a formidable defender in the league. I don't doubt for a second he could come out of retirement and do a job for many teams.

How is that we forget how good this guy was? He may not have been as gorgeous and magical as Ginola or as clinical as Berbatov or as fun and gun as Jurgen. And in my opinion, he was even better than Ginola. Even with all these great signing......in 10 years, I bet I will still be able to say with no sense of hyperbole that King was the greatest player I ever saw play for us (I'm a Yank, so remember that football didn't exist until 1994 ;) )

You have to go back to the 91 side to find players that would truly be his contemporaries. And despite the casual use of the word legend, he's part of a select pair we've had since then.
With due respect Happy Spur, the way I read it was that they were laughing at Harry's desperation and was never questioning Ledder's ability or what a legend he was. THAT would have been sacrilege.

Indeed. Great transfer for all involved too, IMO. But, I have a sneaky suspiscion that we have not seen the last of Deuce in a Spurs shirt. Not based off of anything. Just a gut feeling.
Why, He can't have a testimonial he was only here a year :)

I want gomes to stay but he takes up one of the 17 non EU players. Not very practical IMO

NOt ITK, but pay homage to Bill Nick - 29th Aug 1974 After a poor start to the season, manager Bill Nicholson resigned, so it's the anniversary of an end of an era.
