A tidy amount of ITK to get through this weekend, but no prizes for guessing the stand out story.

Saturday began well in Chez A&C when the mrs returned from her annual check up triumphantly announcing that the Doctor had said she had 'the body of a 22 yr old'

"What about the 47 year old ****?" I asked, laughing..........

"Nah......He never mentioned you" she replied :cry:

Akqayid started us off with 'a few ins and outs'

Modric has been told this morning. He stays.
Lets hope so.

Then POTL had a bit of a rant on COYS

Again, it is up to you Coysers which ITK you choose to believe, and from some of the absolute rubbish I have read recently i felt it time to comment on the statement made by Daniel. Mods feel free to delete this post if the tone does not fit in with the CCC, but I have said on many occassions that Luka is not for sale at any price- this remains the same. Apologies for the slight outburst, this is an emotive subject and with some of the stuff I have been read that is total lies, it is important to take certain 'info' with a pinch of salt- again mine included if you choose.
Strange that he's complaining of having read some absolute rubbish. He's authored enough of it with his cryptics, in this instance perhaps a nice little Alanis Morrisette cryptic would have been apt?

Here on SC Mystery wet our whistles

Just a few updates to wet our whistle with!

HR is once again keen to bring Benzema to the Lane, this all depends on how much Jose will squeeze out of RM for transfers. We're not bothered if we buy him or or loan him with a view to buy.

Spurs officials will be flying out next week to meet with some south american 18 year old, we have watched him 3 or 4 times and we have been very impressed, I have no clue on his name, all I know is, he's an attacking midfielder, has loads of flair and has very mature for his age.

I won't bother going into the Modric rumours, everyone knows it's rubbish.

Peace
Nice one.

Over on SO, well after Levy's statement on Modric
Ari Gold said:

Levy won't sell Modric.

Someone I know who knows him(and I've told Archibald about
this source) has told me that we won't sell him and that he's
determined to be true to his word.
Over to Archie!
:)

Then only the one piece of ITK on Sunday when in response to Sandro leaving rumours, POTL said it straight.

more garbage.
See now that's how to do it. Meerkat ITK.....seemples. Keep saying it straight please. Thank you.

In other news: I just finished reading the fifth book in the "learning to count" trilogy.

The Metro says that:
Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp will buy "one or two" big players to try and keep Luka Modric at White Hart Lane.

Had a bit of a crisis at home when the mrs thought i'd been cheating on her. That's the last time I ever eat a packet of scampi fries.

Now we sit back and wait, what will the day bring? ITK? A signing? 30 pages of speculation? Enjoy..........

Have you donated to SC yet?

We desperately need some positive news about us signing some players this week. We need to get a done deal in by Friday to show Modric, Bale, Sandro, VDV, et al that we mean business.

Deals both in and out this week please. Even if It's just O'hara and Bassong to Wolves. The more we can shift early, we more chance we have to get players in.

I'm surprised people think Bassong is going to Wolves. Their chairman came out and said he is in negotiation for two players but none if them are centre halfs

With any luck players are now starting to get back from holidays etc and most clubs are now fully managered up.

If we can shift 5-6 of the obvious cast-offs (Hutton, Keane, O'Hara, Bentley, Dos Santos, Bassong) then that should free up some squad space/wages for us to go out spending ourselves. Let's hope the Fulhams, Villas and Sunderlands of this world can do us a favour in that regard.

He's being linked with a move to Bolton in some made-up swap deal with Gary Cahill. Can't see it to be honest but if Cahill leaves somewhere then Bolton might be a good fit for him as they will be wanting to replace Cahill with a Premiership experienced defender.
