More snippets from yesterday as ITK picks up the pace before our boys return from South Africa.

First up, two posts, two chapters of War & Peace......

site: SC
I have read all 13 pages of posts in the ITK forum and have asked my source about them. With regards to asking him about Berbatov, Rossi, Adebayor, Mata, and Eto’o - the response I got was in the negative.
I mentioned Vucinic in which he said that it would be a very bad window for spurs if that is what they end up with because it is totally the wrong "direction" they are looking in.

I stick with my original post about Huntelaar and Farfan, which ironically I posted 24 hours before Harry Redknapp details that Tottenham are “working hard to bring in a couple of big signings” in an interview with SKYSPORTSNEWS.

The only new information I have is not about Tottenham, but Gary Cahill, of Bolton, who I have been assured there has been NO bids. From what I have been told Bolton are trying to sell him and are leaking interest in him in order to find funds and increase a price; and Bolton won’t be the only ones making money on that deal.
Something tells me we're never going to see a 10 word snippet from this guy. :roll: Interesting to see how his track record pans out.

No Adebayor? Au contraire says opensaysme

Update to my initial post.

He is not a back up if we lose out on any other signings.

'Arry wants him, Levy wants him.

Expect things to happen very soon.
It's Friday. ITK has it that today is the day. Anyone holding their breath is advised that it might be a bad idea.

Then, breaking a lengthy silence, Jasper from SO

He will atke a substantial wage cut. Its more about the 'IF' agreement thats written into contract and guarantee of purchase after 12 months. Its the settlement of who pays him what he would be missing out on...
One would have thought that if he'd agreed to come last summer (and he's quoted as saying such) that they'll find a way to do this.

Then, mystery on Vucinic

I have just spoken to my contact and he advised me a 15M bid has gone on this evening. Other clubs have been showing an interest for a big part of the day, but we are still leading the race. We are keen to do a deal with them and wrap it up before the season starts, so that he can get some game time in pre-season with us.

I'm not sure if this will be the deal done tomorrow, but as many are people are saying, there will be some movement tomorrow.
Yet more predictions of something happening today. My god it could get Messy. No, not Lionel.

Simply have to tell you about this woman we know who went to the Doctor with a green rash on both her inner thighs.

The Doctor looks it it with interest, rubs his chin and asks 'Is your boyfriend a Pikey?'

"Yes" She says, as a matter of fact he is.......why?"

The Doctor looks up and says 'Tell him his earrings aren't real gold' :)

And finally...........

I've just seen Liverpool are 21/2 to win the Premier League next season with Betfair.

For those of you that don't understand betting, it means if you put £10 on, you will lose £10.

HAVE YOU DONATED YET?


SC needs your help! Do you sit on here spamming the life out of the thread? Is this the first thing you log onto when you get to work in the mornings? Then please help us keep it going by making a donation!

EVERY LITTLE HELPS!

Great round up, let's hope today we get someone real good.

Just want to say that War and Peace is a great book

Funtime Friday anyone?

Thanks for the roundup A&C! Or should that be Steve's understudy!

I will cry if there is no Funky Friday signing today.

And thus friday is upon us, not sure I can handle the excitement, if something big does down today I think mystery deserves a mass rep session from us.

Last nights thread was spammed to fcuk - what a waste of a morning I have had already.
Mystery's late night ITK is promising, but nothing ground breaking. If we see Bojan confirmed today to ROma it will be as much as we can hope for I think. No incomings until we are home from SA IMHO.

Although I'll still excited for Fabulous Funtime funky fucking Friday

Don't see why not. Naughton was loaned out while still over there, and there should be even less reason to wait where incomings are concerned.

If Juve are changing their attention to Vucinic because Rossi isn't moving are they going to screw this deal up for us also.

What? Are we now placing players who's previous wages we can't afford into day-jobs? Was he nice?:shrug::shrug:

Got told almost the same as mystery last night.....Vucinic deal was agreed in principle and we have now put in an official bid....soon as roma's deal for bojan is annouced we should see rapid movement. There is interest from other clubs so we are working on getting it done asap..

Brain: same thing we do everyday during the transfer window
Pinky: what's that brain?
Brain: read a&c's roundup then smash f5 till our fingers bleed in the hope of a glossy new striker.
