The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 5th August 2013

[thinktank]

K, just got back in and sweating like a prozzie's clunge. What's been going on?? Where am I???

 

[Geronimo897]

I think that this Bale story is really going to show who is ITK.

Bale cannot be the following at the same time:

1. happy to stay / fuming;
2. not refusing to train / refusing to train;
3. not refusing to play / refusing to play;
4 not ready for move / desperate for move.

I think that the most likely position in the case of the latter is either:

1. people are not ITK and basing their "ITK" on the media stories; or
2. their contacts are journalists/agents/RM and they are being fed in incorrect information.

JJ is a puzzle, but then I was wondering what he has called out of the blue correctly since Nelson?

I don't care who is or who isn't.

I have no doubt all post in good faith, they get info from whoever and pass it on.

Things can change in 5 minutes of a transfer, I coached and Managed Professionally (Assistant I hasten to add) in Africa for several years. There are wheels with wheels within wheels, then the wheels fall off.....

 

[Geronimo897]

yeah mate, why how different is it? I assume Bale wasn't causing quite the stir in previous windows!

This one is quite mild actually....

Personally, LLM is, in my opinion, the most credible and geniune "ITK".

No ....just no on so many levels.

 

[-Afri-Coy-]

Just got home from a 5 day vacancy to find out we finally have a fucking no 9? And there's still people complaining

Good to see SC hasn't changed at all

Siggy should stay I feel he is a very versatile player that grew well into our squad over the season and could prove even better this season along with Holtby as long as they are positioned properly

 

[Parklane Block 34]

I like best the ITK's who give me good news only

JJ boooooooo!

Don't want to hear any negative stuff la la la la. not listening. Fingers in ears..

 

[#1 Spur]

I bloody hope not,Enfield Town are frankly shite.....surely our reserves are of a higher standard than them.I cannot see the point in playing them.

Fitness.

Welcome back, in your absence the "Daily ITK discussion Thread" became the "Rate the ITKer" thread.

 

[worcestersauce]

You can't let ITK control your happiness

Nor can you stop it!

 

[HappySpur]

Yeah this is a one off.

whispers: Don't tell him.

 

[Gb160]

Fitness.

They'd get fitness playing our reserves,without the risk of being scythed down by an out of shape plumber who can't keep up.
I just don't see what we gain out of playing against team of players who aren't good enough at football to do it for a living.

I think all it will tell is who's got the best source more than anything else.

I don't think anything should be pointed at itk's directly as they do give e in good faith as has been said...and let's face it, good info or not, we've had a wicked rollercoaster so far

 

[Breezer]

I understand completely mate. You all only pass on what you've been told thus far.

You watch games at the training ground, don't you? Heard we have one vs Enfield Town on Wednesday. Is that true?

Yes i'm the person who said we have a game on Weds against Enfield Town. Mentioned it yesterday on the itk thread.

FFS. Come in here to catch up on the latest ITK chat and all I find is page upon page of nonsense discussions about whose ITK cock is he biggest.
That'd be great if the actual ITK had their bits out, but it's a bunch of fucking ITK fanboys getting all girly about it.

Get this nonsense the fuck out of here. Mods! ... fucking do something ...

 

[makeveli]

So next window we will have 1 or 2 itk that's what I call lockdown

Said it before, and was decried.

But it is not unkown for clubs to "leak" false info to those they suspect may be posting on websites.

No disrespect to anyone, but I know it does happen.

 

[chinaski]

I don't understand
why people
bash
or love
the ITK

players will leave
players will come

regardless of when
or when not
we know about it

Best to let everyone just get it out of their systems once and for all tbh and then shut up about it.

 

[Mr Pink]

The ITK analysis has surely run its course now. Beyond boring.

Simple as that really. We don't pay ITK's for the inside skinny; they owe us nothing.
