I've actually much preferred adiepf as a poster since he stopped posting his fantasy ITK, but this harps back to the bad old days.

Would you say that the reason that Fabregas, Nasri and the recently departed Clichy want to leave the scum are solely to do with Wenger? Because he is tactically shite and wont spend more that £10 on someone over the age of 6. Would you fuck.

Modric wanting to treble his wage and leave the club to join one that won the double less than 2 years ago has fuck all to do with twitchy bollocks in the dugout.

Levy fan boy.

He's no more a Levy fan boy than you are a Redknapp one.

I don't think Modric is leaving because of anything Redknapp has said, but Redknapp certainly played a big part in us not getting CL football. I'm sure the 300% pay rise Chelsea are possibly offering is right up there with his reasons for leaving, but let's not completely absolve Redknapp for any blame either - any more than Cliche and Nasri possibly wouldn't be leaving if Arsenal had actually won the league when they had a chance instead of pissing it away and finishing fourth.

And it's one thing for us to know what the various attractions of Chelsea over us are and to chew them over on an internet forum, it's not quite the same when your most senior manager (paid an annual salary of millions) - at a time when your best employee has just made some very disparaging remarks - endorses them. Especially when we all know it's bollocks. Chelsea aren't more ambitious, they just have more money to chuck at their ambitions.

It's hardly surprising Modric feels it's OK to air his thoughts to the media with our Manager's example is it ?

I'm not so sure about the Modric situation but i do think Harry's comments make us unattractive to any possible incoming player who has serious ambition.

The other thing to say is that if we got the fabled few players and didn't contend, it will be more "top, top" players we need to compete with "the top 5" (Harry's words), not better coaching.

Harry is Teflon man. No matter where he's been and the subsequent consequences he's be party to, he never accepts any form of blame. He's got off to an art form. If we fuck up this season, then he'll deflect the blame to Levy, which he is already doing.

Levy should bite the bullet and bin him with immediate effect. Get someone in who's committed, keen and hungry.

I feel Harry does open his mouth too often. Never seem to get as many quotes from the likes of Whinger or OWF or Mancini. But that's his nature, so we'll have to put up with it until he's gone.
However, I think he was well out of order on the morning after Modric met Levy last week. After that meeting, Levy says things like: "He (Modric) understands the situation... he's not leaving... will be fine when he joins up with his team mates." Just 12 hours later, yes just 12 hours, Redknapp is asked by SSN and whoever about M. at training that morning. Instead of taking the same line as Levy, he comes out with: "I can't pretend he's happy.... he's very down.. but then when people offer crazy money, what can you do..."
THAT, my friends, I regard as seriously undermining Levy and I bet it pissed him off no end.
All the other "never had it so good... Top 5... triffic..." etc is just verbal diarrhoea from an East End geezer.

So, Adie posts a thread asking for a decent debate, but then doesn't bother to come back into his own thread.

What gives?

Hmm finishing 4th and 5th in consecutive seasons, final of a league cup, semi final in the fa cup, quarter-final of the champions league. Hmm Harry clearly doesn't know what he's doing!
