Good morning ITkers. A nice few snippets to bring you this morning. Plus we made a signing, although we still await a 'proper' one.

I woke up this morning wondering why is it ok for the wife to have a rampant rabbit dildo but when I stitch two chicken breasts together as an artificial fanny, I'm the sick one? :shrug:

Anyway, on with the ITK.........................

First up was mystery with a few things
Who: CorlukaModric
Where: SC
When: 18 July

We wont wait for Adebayor to dilly dally over a move to Real..If we can get the Vucinic deal sorted then Adebayor wont happen aswell as Vucinic...

Rossi is still Harry's first choice..
Vucinic or Adebayor are more likely tho as Rossi has never been keen on coming to us

I'm told we are in talks with City over a deal for Adebayor and are negotiating a fee with Roma for Vucinic.

I beleive Vucinic is the only striker we will sign but Adebayor is possible as he has made it clear he would be willing to take a pay cut to join Spurs
A lot to digest but the spam gang managed it.

Now for another SC Exclusive

As if it needed proving what exclusive access my imagination has to all things Spurs related, yesterday I was granted an 20 minute interview with Harry Redknapp

We had arranged to meet at Doms Cafe in Stoke Newington. I'd been there before, a quality establishment with branches in Paris, Munich and New York. Everything on the menu (and that was about 8 things) ended either in an exact pound or 50p, none of your poncy 99p shit.

I asked Harry if he wanted Coffee. 'No thanks A&C, I don't like Coffee, i'll have a tea please'

Bing! Off went the message alert on Harry's Blackberry.......Harry read it out aloud.......

I can't believe our manager has said that in public. What if one of our players likes coffee? What will that do for his confidence in coffee? IMO Harry should be sacked. Signed, an irate SC'er.

'Blimey' I said......Harry laughed 'I get these all the time'

Bing! Off went the message alert on Harry's Blackberry again.......again Harry read it out aloud.......

What's Harry doing admitting he gets messages on his Blackberry all the time? This gives the impression he spends more time on his mobile than he does on team affairs. He should STFU, signed an irate SC'er

Again, Harry laughed.

Bing! Off went the message alert on Harry's Blackberry again.......again Harry read it out aloud.......

Why is our manager laughing? We have to sign players. I love Harry but I wish he'd think before opening his gob, signed an irate SC'er

'OK fuck this, he said 'this is rediculous' and put his blackberry back into his pocket, pulling an iPhone from his jacket pocket.

Bing Bong! Off went the message alert on his iPhone.

Is it true that Harry switched off his Blackberry? If so then he should be sacked IMO, signed an irate SC'er.

Harry rolled his eyes, put his iPhone away and pulled a Nokia out of another pocket.........

I could see this was going nowhere. Time was running out and I wanted to ask some serious questions

So I took the plunge.........'Harry.........Will we sell Modric?'

"No comment"

So I asked.....'Will we be signing a new striker?'

"No comment"

'One last question Harry, what are our prospects for the coming season?'

"No comment"

Bing! Bing Bong! Zing! The message alert tones went off on all of Harry's mobile phones. He looked at the first one and showed it to me.........

I'm so angry, Harry doesn't give a shit about keeping the fans informed, its a disgrace, the man has no business running our great club....signed an irate SC'er.

This time it was me rolling my eyes......I gave up thanked Harry and walked away, it hadn't gone quite as I thought it would.......:)

Cheers A&C. Sexy round-up as usual.

I wonder if we will be getting a Pav style striker signing. No one expected him and it came out of the blue.

Mario Gomez?
Lisandro Lopez?

This really is the most depressing window.

I think I'll go and drown some puppies and make a baby cry just cheer myself up a bit......

Nice one A&C.

Can anyone remember which ITK was the first to say that we were intereseted in Coulibaly? I'm sure someone mentioned it weeks ago, but with the search function disabled I can't find who it was.

I think the approach of looking at Vucinic, Adebayor and Rossi at the same time makes a lot of sense.

Whichever one we pull off first of those i'd be happy with, hopefully if we can shift Crouch in the meantime it means we can get a second player from that list too.

It was BEN from up in his tree. Fair play to him.

Strange how quiet the vucinic things have gone. Seemed for a while like it was in the bag. Still think we will get vucinic or adebayor (hopefully both) and shift keane and crouch. That would give us a good balance of strikers.

Well at least we've got a match to 'look forward' to tonight. Hopefully they'll have started to find their feet now and won't look quite as much like drunk lemurs as they did in the first game.

Coulibaly sounds exciting and together with Ceballos I'm liking our youth policy. Now we just need to give them some decent forwards to learn off.

We need at least two strikers Harry/Daniel. Don't let me down or there will be consequences. Loud, bitter and ultimately inconsequential consequences.

Don't you dare touch any puppies :evil:

It will get better :shifty:

You're up early for post b-day


A&C. I'm up very very late and that is spectacular. Especially because I definitely had a "STFU" post towards Harry today (or yesterdauy as you English call it - note I kept the really really unnecessary U that you guys will hump a wild Alpine Tern for)

But yesterday was a good day and not just because of Hottie Spurs birthday but we signed someone. And let's hope it continues.
