The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10 August 2010

[SpurSince57]

Now, enough of this gay banter and back to discussing the ITK.

Oh…

 

[cabinfever]

It's not said often enough, however, I for one do appreciate the work that goes into running the site and keeping it going. :clap:

Now, having said that, I hate the way....................... only joking :grin:

 

[Gilly Me Silly]

I think we should make a forum for each member so that they can have what they want in a particular way, then everyone would be happy.

But someone would probably moan because there would be no-one to talk to in their own private sub-forum of ITK.

CONSTANTLY changing the format is massivley boring and a massive ball-ache. Every single bloody window. You don't see any of the people on any other sites moaning about how stuff is presented, and just because we dared to make a smidgen of effort to try and make your lives easier we get almost daily moans of people not having exactly how they would do it.

It gets tedious and one of the reason why so many of us get disillusioned with this particular side of the site. We're not after medals - the site staff know that you don't do something for free and expect massive praise; we in fact have learnt to expect the opposite - but that doesn't make it any less annoying given how much goes in to all of this behind the scenes.

End of moan. :lol:

Thats the opposite of what people want I think. A general shoot the shit, discuss ITK and rumours, chat about who they think is best etc.

Just a daily thread.

Give us this day our daily thread......as someone once said

Storts posted some info last night quite late on regarding KJH swap and which positions we were targeting etc......but it doesn't have it's own thread. Should it?

 

[Spurger King]

It's a cryptic one I reckon. We're interested in swapping Crouch for Nigel Squashie.

Nah, I think I've cracked it...

"Squashed" SQU - ASH(e) - D

Ash in squad

Ashley Young is due to be in our squad.

I think I deserve a scooby snack.

 

[DoublePivot]

What the fuck. Does he mean the deal is off. Or done.

 

[nicdic]

I would assume off.

 

[fazza]

Yes when I asked Storts about Huntelaar he said more or less that there was nothing in the Giovani swap deal for him but when I said we were no longer in for Huntelaar he said he didn't say that with a wink at the end of the comment.

 

[Raxscallion]

"Squashed" SQU - ASH(e) - D

Ashley Young is due to be in our squad.

I think I deserve a scooby snack.

I think that's an important piece of deduction, but I don't think you've quite cracked it.

Sq. is 'Square' - as in Trafalgar Sq.

Ash, I agree, has to be Young.

Which leaves 'ie'.

So we still have to 'square' the 'Ash'ley Young deal, 'ie'..... (player)

It has to be a player swop. My guess is that everything's been agreed but they're haggling over the 'ie' bit. I expect Levy's put Bentley, Jenas and Hutton on the table, but maybe they're pushing for Keane or Crouch or someone?

 

[Raxscallion]

I would assume off.

He's off, or the deal's off?

 

[hughy]

What the fuck. Does he mean the deal is off. Or done.

This is exactly what I meant about POTL.



[/itk bashing]

 

[impspur]

dont see the confusion......by saying squashed surely means its off...whats not to understand/

 

[Rogmeister]

Squashed could bloody mean anything. Why not just say not a chance!

 

[chrissivad]

dont see the confusion......by saying squashed surely means its off...whats not to understand/

some people might not know that saying though. Even in the UK you have diffrent sayings that someone else might not understand.

But yeah, he means the deal is off.

 

[nicdic]

Why would squashed mean it was happening? It's clear that POTL thinks it isn't happening.

 

[Zimmy]

To be fair Joe Jordan squashed it about 24 hours before POTL got in there.

 

[Rogmeister]

Well he could mean crouchs balls have been squashed by abbey so he's off

 

[Spurger King]

If this is the ITK thread then the whole thread today is based on 1 word from POTL "squashed" - not to sure this will be a great thread!! Maybe it should be renamed the rumours thread?

Looks like one word can generate quite a heated discussion :lol:

 

[DoublePivot]

Why would squashed mean it was happening? It's clear that POTL thinks it isn't happening.

I'm sorry, but they lurk in shadows and speak in puzzles. There is never anything clear with most of them and thus the reason the question needed to be asked. :up:
