The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 2nd June

[LexingtonSpurs]

Well, it was in "self-defense" and rumoured to be about Marley "lighting up" (" Every time I plant a seed, He said kill it before it grow")


So, I can get de Ligt from this!

 

[Dashy]

Self defence = sell defence. We're selling a defender?

After this cryptic I think it is Martial.

One in ten = 1+10=11... Martial squad number
I shot the sheriff = Sheriff Marshall = Martial

Oooh lala i think youve cracked it too...
Im so confused

 

[King of the Lane]

We know about Martial so it would make no sense to make a cryptic about him. Cryptics usually are about players we havent been linked with yet.

Im praying it is Bailey

 

[Indisguise]

Oooh lala i think youve cracked it...

Probably coincidence but it ties in nicely with the "one in, one out" solution. Goodbye Toby, hello Martial.

 

[WiganSpur]

Reckon Leon Bailey is the answer to the first cryptic - one in ten !

This is it.

The two songs are clearly two reggae references. Bailey is Jamaican.

Leon Bailey's name is 10 letters and one is contained in it as you've said.

Also fits in with Herc's Germany ITK.

The 2 cryptics...are these target reveals or imminent signings?
The latter and my weekend is over already

Oh.. well oooh lala i think you've cracked it too...
Im cracking...

1 in 10 leaves 9, which is/was Bailey’s squad number at Leverkusen.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

Seems unlikely that there would be two cryptics about the same player....

 

[WiganSpur]

The two cryptics aren't related

Happen to be two reggae songs. Leads me to believe that's the clue rather than the lyrics.

Aren't they demanding 55-60m for him?

 

[jonnboy]

Martial

Bob bailey...
Leon marley...
Jamaican...Germany

Well if it's not, then Bailey is the best guess for the first one.

 

[DONOS10]

Dole queue?
Shooting the sheriff?

Jordan Henderson is clearly unhappy that Kane was named England captain

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

"one day the bottom will drop out"

 

[RJR1949]

Pochettino is off to Real Madrid but his deputy Jesus Perez is staying to become the new manager.

 

[ackie]

Germany.?!
There's many germs in germ many

 

[coleraineyid]

Sheriff is like a Marshall in Westerns. Martial?
