oooh good one, although i think he would have been about three years old when he moved darn sarf so i'm pretty sure the scouseness wouldn't have time to take hold :D

Sounds about right - he was at playschool with my brother in Hoddesdon at 4 years old...

Name the last scouser to play for Spurs.
There was a player called Tom Bradshaw, who was born in Liverpool and joined us from the Reds in May 1898, ten and a bit years before we played our first Football League game. (I've just had a quick glance through Bob Goodwin's 'Spurs Alphabet' book.)

Can't think of any others who were born in Liverpool or nearby places.

Edit: I have to admit I'd forgotten about John Lacy and Stephen Clemence being born in Liverpool.

This is new information. Two national newspapers, independently of each other, have both written a story about Barkley expecting £150k. They didn't both make up a story and coincidentally come up with the same figure. What we do know is Barkley is asking for a similar amount to stay at Everton. When the story breaks that he's looking for similar from us, why do we suddenly assume it's BS? Mainly because it doesn't fit in with what we want.

Have you got blinkers on? Just because they are independant of each other dosen't mean they didn't get the story from the same person, just like they get 'Agency' photo's

Uncalled for, don't you think? No reason to doubt he was passing on in good faith, I'd say? There has in the past been some posters bullshitting, (for instance plans to use Bentaleb as nr. 10) but I don't think it is a big problem.
Go back and read what he wrote and the way in which it was posted. Perhaps the word lie is strong, I could amend it if you like, but considering the fake news update from JJ there really isn't alot to it, is there?

Not everything you read on the internet is true.

Certainly agree with that, but I can't help but feeling that you are targeting the wrong bloke on this mini-vendetta.

No vendetta, you post info like this in the manner in which it was posted ... You then read the way in which he defended the info.

At least the GF itk could be taken with a pinch of salt ...
