Not much ITK yesterday, but at least there was some. We'll dive straight into it with Akqayid who gave us some snippets......

As close to ITK as your going to get. Nothing MAJOR, but stuff to pass on. Dinner with an old friend after the golf today at Wentworth, he works on TV rights, his missus works for a sports agency and the other 'guest' is a footballer.
- Don't be surprised to see Avram back at Chelsea in some role
- Harry and him are of course best mates, it's been discussed between them
- Harry ISN'T (most close to Jamie R think) going to Chelsea, the more interesting link is His England odds actually going up
- He WAS supposedly approached two years ago, and has been in the last six weeks, since Madrid.
- DL and HR DID supposedly fall out. HR wants more older established players, DL wants the sandro or English young route.
- Nearly all spurs players are quite close, no divides, no prima Donnas, and all like it there.
- All gutted to not be in UCL again, but want to get THFC there, no one else again for the short while
- no idea on transfer targets, BUT Gomes, it's totally up to him, supposedly have 1 lined up, and a young kid. No names
The one NON spurs thing is that Wenger has 18-24 months. Carling cup, fa cup, anything, the board are past pretty pictures. They want cups. Oh and Cesc Fab could be gone within 2 weeks!
That's all. Apart from my mate (golfer) signe a new deal with Under Armour and their stuff lined up for us is meant to be emense!
Then Pablo on COYS

like i said i haven't heard anything to excite me yet this year.
an ok source said to me two keeper names, maybe even names that have been mentioned already.
Muslera - Lazio
Ceballos* - Barcelona
*Ceballos isn't a keeper but the young Barcelona player
And that was that. Not much eh? Still......early days.
Enough of that, i've put my investigative hat on in order to bring you an insight into ITK and its workings. There's way too much to tell so it'll have to be split up and posted as and when, but I hope you enjoy it..........
Part 1: 300
Last weekend I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a day at the ITK training school at a top secret location in Hertfordshire.
I had arranged to meet my contact outside the Chick King on the Tottenham High Road and I was wondering what was in store for me as a big black 4x4 slowly pulled up and two masked men jumped out, threw a blindfold over my head and bundled me into the car.
I did wonder if someone had seen and called the po-po before realising this was Tottenham, similar incidents probably happened twenty times a day.
Nobody spoke to me during the journey, although one of the dirty bastards dropped his guts several times during the journey, producing an aroma so bad that it made me wonder if a rat hadn't crawled up his arse and died there. I could have done without the sniggering by the two heavies every time he did so, what with them having the luxury of being able to wind down a window and all........ anyway, I guess it was about an hour later I when I was taken out of the car and had the blindfold taken off. As I blinked, dazzled by the sunlight a short figure, bald, wearing spectacles and with a club foot, a sort of cross between Joseph Goebbels and Heinrich Himmler greeted me in a high pitched, squeaky voice "You must be A&C", I nodded and he told me I could call him 'The Leader'
"Follow me, he said and i'll show you around" and off he went, taking three clumpy paces to my every one.......one of his aides growled into my ear "slow down for fucks sake, he's got a thing about his boot", just as I slowed down he turned and screamed, "what? you think because you're tall and can walk faster than me that you're somehow better than me?"....."Well, your fucking not, so watch yourself" His aide raised his eyebrows at me in a sort of 'told ya' gesture.
Pretty soon we entered a building, turned left into the first room, which was a classroom. Every desk was occupied by a figure wearing a Spurs shirt and a blue balaclava, the instructor was shouting phrases and the class were repeating them in unison.
As 'The Leader' entered the room, silence fell as he stood on a chair to address the class. He turned to me and said "An example of what they've learned"
He turned back to the class and in his high pitched voice which was already irritating the fuck out of me shouted.....
"What do we never say?"
"Done deal" chanted back the class
"And what do we never do"
"Answer questions"
He nodded his approval, hopped off the chair, flung a curt 'follow me' over his shoulder and marched off, following a blue line which was painted on the floor. As we walked briskly down the corridor, the sound of the opening bars of Abba's 'Money Money Money' chimed out and The Leader dipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out his mobile phone.
"What?....You're fucking kidding me.....where? Fucking scouse ****s.....we'll get even don't you worry about that, the fucking nonces aren't going to get away with this.....stand by for instructions"
"problem?" I asked as he hung up the call........"Nothing we can't handle.....seems an ITK in Liverpool gave out a snippet and got shot.........you ever see 300?"
"eh?" I replied, confused by the question
"300.......three fucking hundred......you know, 300! The film about them Spartan geezers"
"Oh...er, yeah"
"Well I fucking told them, I fucking wrote to them and I fucking pleaded with them. When Gerard Butler kicks that messenger down that great big hole, I fucking told them it was setting a dangerous precedent, cut the scene I said, it'll be anarchy I said, but did they listen? Did they fuck. Just laughed at me. ****s. Once people see one messenger being killed, people think they are fair game......all they had to do is change the scene and have him thank him for his information, is that so fucking hard?"
'well, no, it isn't now you come to mention it'
"Yet time after bastard time, we get aggro, nothing but aggro for providing a service"
'Well, sometimes, some of you do ask for it'
He went purple........
"we never fucking ask for it! What are you, some sort of ****?.........I invited you here to give our side of the story, are you going to do that or are you some sort of pussy claaat wankstain?"
'no no, of course i'm on your side' I said, well aware that I was in danger of ruining the whole thing. "Where we going next?"
The Oracle giggled. Well, it was more of a cross between the cackle of a witch and the squarking of an eagle. I think he giggled anyway.......
"Wanna learn about Cryptics?"
