Good morning aficianados of all things ITK.......Welcome to the ITK discussion thread. So what's new? Weeeeeeeell, there was actually some ITK yesterday, so it does seem to be picking up a bit doesn't it?

Over the weeked I decided to treat my mrs to a pub meal. As the barman began to pull my pint he looked up and said 'Oh Dear, I think the barrel's gone'............'Nah mate' I said 'She's just nipped for a piss'

Yesterday......all my troubles seemed so far away. Oh I believe, in ITK.................
Hertyid on COYS was first up with some positive info.......
Hertyid said:
Everything AVB and DL are working on now regarding new formation and signings revolves around Bale. he is not leaving this summer, not even for 90m. Stay strong. September is only 10 weeks away.
Stay strong!!!!
Then that wiley Fox, here on SC, on tapping.......
Grey Fox said:
The club are seriousley considering taking action over tapping up by PSG, and Real Madrid and the action could include named individuals including agents and journalists.
Which caused a bit of a stir.....for a while.
Finally, late last night......Hertyid on COYS went for a win double
Hertyid said:
Bertolucci met with us this week, so I'm told
Giuliano Bertolucci =Paulinho's and Bernard's agent

And that was yesterday's ITK.

My wife and I were having a massive argument the other day. "I'm not the one who's fucking paranoid!" She yelled.

"You're fucking who?!" I replied.

In the papers today, The Mirror say that Tottenham want to sign Corinthians midfielder Paulinho, 24, Internacional striker Leandro Damiao, 23, and Barcelona striker David Villa, 31. No shit sherlock.

The Guardian insist that Tottenham are confident they can persuade manager Andre Villas-Boas, 35, to reject overtures from Paris St-Germain and remain at White Hart Lane. We'll see. Fingers crossed.

Last night Mrs A&C said to me, 'A little birdy told me what to expect off you for my birthday this year'

I had a vision of a sparrow landing on her shoulder and whispering, "Fuck all" in her ear.

And that's that. Until tomorrow Vaqueros!

morning. as we're currently on the up slope of itk, before we come crashing back down to earth, was just thinking about paulinho's quotes about the fact that his agent was over here (backed up by hertyid?) but it's not for him. Could we, in the wildest realms of fantasy, be playing the best game of smoke and mirrors ever? i.e. when it becomes obvious for bernard, a big wave of itk pushes us towards paulie and vice versa, just to keep everyone guessing?. sod it, i reckon we're in big time for both.

I'd rather we just signed him to be honest but DL will try anything to do a deal so who knows?

One way or another, at least we'd found out why he's really called 'little Paul'.

Wasn't there a comment yesterday, which seems to have been overlooked, where one of the other clubs looking at Paulinho said he had an agreement with Inter. I know it's not ITK, but it's worth repeating/considering/bearing in mind.

It's been denied by Corinthians and the agent.

Thought it was strange, as unless I am mistaken a pre-contract is when a player is aproaching the end of his contract and is free to sign a pre contract as his contract is ending.

Call me s pessimist but with the known problems with signing players from South America, why are we bothering?
It took a monumental effort to sign Sandro, we still haven't gotten Leandro so why go after two more?
I could share my paranoid delusional conspiracy theory. But it might upset the vociferous among you that don't understand jokes.

Levy won't be splunking £18m-ish each on 2 (TWO!) brazilians to fit in with AVB's strategies if AVB is even considering getting off to PSG.

The Chinese Spurs fans on here yesterday, or at least China based Spurs fans, said the things that made me feel safest about AVB / Bale et al: You see kids wearing Bale on their shirts, and AVB is on all the football magazine covers.

Levy is a clever dude, and it won't be too long surely before we're no longer ONE (1) Hotspur, but Tottenham Hotspur AND Hong Kong Hotspur too. Or summink.
