Where's the stamp?

Does that mean we won't get stadium info today? Judging by Grey foxs advice earlier? Maybe today will be all about us not Wimbledon/ the budget

Welcome to Belgium Hotspur

Soon Spurs are going to be second in the FIFA International world rankings. Quite an achievement.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

With the latest bleat, hope the timing of the Toby announcement isn't a sweetener for the news the NFL deal means a re-design of the stadium, pitch position or a delay in getting it all finished!

I want the good times to keep rolling.

This is what the sting is probably

 

[CarrickSpurgus]

Sting?..groundshare with Watford

Or Brentford?

 

[GetSpurredOn]

Yeah, sting in the tail, I was wondering if that was some cryptic about an added bit of news regarding a signing, or some bad news tagged into the end of the announcement (Ade has signed on for another 2 years etc).
Watford is a good shout. Maybe it'll be as simple as Stambouli's transfer?
Or maybe we've signed Rene Higuita as 3rd choice keeper, known for the infamous scorpion kick????!

@SpursOfficial: SIGNED: We are delighted to announce the signing of @AlderweireldTob from Atletico Madrid. #WelcomeToby http://t.co/CTThyOs7V7

Awesome!

Wankfest Wednesday begins!!

 

[felmani26]

That journo was spot on - 10am announcement.

Great signing and him and Verts will hopefully make a solid and reliable CB pairing, ably deputised by Dier.

 

[Scott Spur]

Ouch.....Saintsweb even have a nice photo of Toby in a Spurs shirt before our own OS

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Or Brentford?

That's definitely too small, capacity of 12000. We couldnt take that hit on revenue and it would be damaging for longer term support.

That sting in the tail concerns me. On this occasion I'm hoping you're wrong, Goat!

I do agree with other posters though and think it's plausible it will be 2 years away from WHL and/or it could be at Vicarage road

 

[Stoof]

The answer to the question is therefore and forever more: TOBY.

The question of course being: Toby or not Toby. Nothing to do with cabbages.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Looks like The Goat was right in Update 97 then.

 

[TheChosenOne]

Cabbages : Please explain.

 

[Spurger King]

Cabbages : Please explain.

They're green, grow in the ground, and are edible

 

[Vwbottom]

I felt a great disturbance in the sauce, as if hundreds of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something hilarious has happened.

I don't think - on many levels - we could afford to be away from Tottenham for that long. Maybe it's something positive?! Please....

 

[thfc1989]

Right, that's stamped - on to the next saga. Bring on the Cabbage.

Brussels Sprouts ain't !

"Sting in the tail" - Stambouli to Watford announced after the stadium?
