Hi, Buzz Killington here, this "used" to be a thriving metropolis of itk gold & rumours aplenty. Last year it was a desolate place, a broken shell of a place. As Keith Burkinshaw would say "there used to be a brilliant thread over there"

We got 5 pieces of ITK for the whole of the January transfer window.

5. That's fewer than the number of shits A&C has done just this morning.

I don't think I'll be expecting a huge flurry in this window (of ITK I mean...we'll leave A&C to his own flurries). Seems like the club keep things a lot closer to their chests these days.

Not Contracts for Fulham youngsters though apparently, they get more viewings than the Bayeux Tapestry

Think I got a ban from the ITK thread in January... Can't even remember why... This will be my only post this summer!! Will view rather than comment.

Disagree as we weren't in the market in Jan but we are now ;)

True. I also believe it's because many people are now beyond wanting to talk about transfers on an internet forum, it's almost old hat. I remember the glory days of 2006-2010 when we'd would rarely go a day without at least three pieces of ITK.

It's the smartphone age, people can't be arsed anymore. :-(

It's more to do with how fucking tedious the transfer window is now. At least before deals could be wrapped up with a level of secrecy. And even if negotiations are slow at first, once a fee is agreed the medical and scarf shot is imminent.

But now it's a side-show. The Pogba deal epitomizes how much of a circus it is now. The worst kept secret in football - purposefully dragged on and on for two months as a marketing ploy.
