Pinch and a punch, 1st of the Month!

Today, like all good ITK addicts, you are all going to be within 6ft of a news source all day long awaiting developments. Go on, admit it. You'll be sat at whatever it is you use to access the interweb all day long, taking breaks only to curl one out or have a crafty barclays. It's comforting to know it isn't just me.

Slowly, as the day progresses, it'll start sinking in that the much anticipated announcements aren't going to come.

Then people will come up with reasons why. And you'll all start torturing yourselves over again and Monday will be like Groundhog day.

I've come up with the answer. I'm going to become ITK myself....................

Breaks into song, to the tune of 'Money Money Money' by Abba. All hail Abba!

I surf all night, I surf all day, just to see what the ITK's might say
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single piece of info for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I became an ITK man
I wouldn't have to surf at all and I'd be praised by one and all...

Info, info, info
Must be funny
In the ITK's world
Info, info, info
Always sunny
In the ITK's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little info
In the ITK's world

ITK like that is hard to find but I can't get it off my mind
Ain't it sad
The info happens to be free I love it when they post for me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To FTL or SO
And try to get an ITK name, my info will never be the same...

Info, info, info
Must be funny
In the ITK's world
Info, info, info
Always sunny
In the ITK's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little info
In the ITK's world

So now i'm giving info out and all the fans they say good shout
Ain't it sad
And if they don't like info from me then I just reply wait and see
That's too bad
So if you're waiting, you want to know
Which new players will come and go
Then read my info, play the game your life will never be the same

Info, info, info
Must be funny
In the ITK's world
Info, info, info
Always sunny
In the ITK's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little info
In the ITK's world

Music by the genie-eye known as Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson. Backing vocals by Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. A&C would like to thank Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad for providing certain 'favours' after the gig. In his dreams that is, not now. Now they are both wrinkly hags, but back in the day A&C would have gone through the card with the pair of them. Big time. Many of his youthful fantasies were shot into kleenex thanks to these two and they are the main reason A&C's parents forced him to wear boxing gloves to bed at night. Biggups.

Nothing will happen today.

If, and its a big IF, there is news of something big like a takeover, a new manager, signings etc I would think that the rumours and certain information will be released on Sunday night / Monday to the press, for an announcement or a press conference on Tuesday.

But, it will probably be nothing, other than Under Armour releasing our kits today and maybe AVB and Sigurdson being announced on Monday.

Excellent work A&C, great to start of the morning with a laugh!

Today IS the day, I can feel it in my pinky... Not so sure what kind of day it is though... :unsure:

Managed to get through family brekkie and grocery shopping as I was quite confident nothing would happen. Now about to head out to a big barbecue/garden party for my boss's kid turning 1. Otherwise known as the type of function where it is completely impossible to follow any kind of news and you must stay at for several hours, just as the UK wakes up and 'news' can be released. And the missus will stay next to me the whole time, kicking me in the sack if I so much as touch my phone.

I've decided I'll tell everyone when I arrive that I have dysentry. That way I can run to the toilet to check the site every five minutes and get away with leaving inside three hours.

At least we know one thing will happen today.

I've got Italy in the sweepstake at work. £32 could be mine. That's most of my new UA top paid for. Which must be the second thing to most likely happen today. The UA announcement, not Italy winning.
