The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - THE MANIC MONDAY EDITION 2nd July 2012

[hoodlum]

I think if you know your not on topic, which people must, then change the colour of the type to blue and then people can skim over it.

I hear ya, but won't work for us mobile users

I think JJetset is in a pretty difficult situation, he clearly wants to give info to people but he is concerned about the rags lifting it as rumours and putting it on their front page. I don't think it is as bad as it sounds with that, rumours can start from anywhere to be honest.

Where I would agree with him is if he gives one piece of info, instead of people discussing that one bit of info, he gets 3000 questions on everyone and their mother....

JJetset: "We're close on a deal for Adebayor...."
Poster 1: "JJ are we looking at anyone from Outer Mongolia to come in and solve the goalkeeping crisis??"
Poster 2: "JJ can you give us a list of the last 10 people that we scouted please, or PM me please please?"
Poster 3: "JJ when are we signing Vertonghen and what is the hold up?"
Poster 4: "JJ I just did a poo and think I may have a dose of Farmer Giles...?"

You can see why he holds some things back.....

Ahhhhh ITK required....or just a manager...and about 5 (replace with 15 if we get shot of some of the deadwood) signings......and a multi multi million pound investment....surely it's not asking for too much!!!!

 

[SpurSince57]

The silence from the top itks is really strange, I think they all clearly feel a bit stupid for making date predictions that haven't came to fruition.


Apparently Jjetset has been logging on over the last few days. I just don't get why he hasn't posted anything at all? Just seems odd to me. Can't see why if he has been logging on he hasn't been able to do his usual confirm or deny to the latest itk rumours I.e Ledley let go etc Oscar fee agreed

The silence from the top itks and reliable itks is eerie.

What do you mean by 'top ITKs'?

One possible reason for JJ's failure to post over the last few days is that certain things are still at a delicate stage and that any comment could compromise them. There are question marks over others' posts, but JJ's are generally regarded as gospel; journos following these threads will certainly be aware of this.

Wouldn't mind singing another young Brazilian. Love having Sandro in our team be great if we could find another talent

 

[panoma]

so been away most the day and was so eager to get back home and jump all over this thread, but just skimmed through the pages fast.

Am i right saying fuck all have happened today except for all the armchair managers telling eachother what's a good naming rights deal and how much we should make etch?

Fuck me, was expecting some real business happening today!

I know. I find it sickening.

The guy gets bombarded every time he posts the most simplest of comments. I'm not surprised he is hesitant to engage on here anymore.

Small change for some big corporates. If a company wanted worldwide exposure they would pay it and see it as good value.

What sort of company that has £1bn to spend on advertising doesn't already have worldwide exposure?

 

[TheGreenLily]

Hmmm, it was good when AVB was announced "over the weekend" I have to admit.

I jest, of course, and he is one who has been more accurate than some, certainly more than that Jacob chap anyway.

Thought they was crackers?

 

[faze_coys]

20m will be a snip for oscar when he turns in to 35m player in a couple of years....

and if he fails to live up to his promise which i highly doubt we may loose 5/6m on him....

definitely worth the risk...

I was asked nicely by Rob and A&C to stop posting in this thread so I have .
I understand and respect their reasons.
Goat wasn't working either.
So much going on too but no outlet!!!
Enjoy the window!!

Crikey just got home from work and we have nothing? not even a decision made by Sigurdsson? sweet Jesus that makes me sad

Maybe the mods should let him take over the redundant Adiepf account, no-one would believe a word from that one, I 100000000% assure you

 

[Mikegold]

I demand you PM everyone! Nah I'm kidding but does that now mean, we have lost basically the best ITK (Why would the mods do that considering I assume it must have increased some form of traffic and popularity)...
I mean having the best ITK part of your own forum etc...Can't you just post RO like other ITKS and just ignore people in here asking you questions?

Now you've gone and done it.

 

[hoodlum]

Good job, morons.

That includes you too, you stupid Goat.

 

[TheGreenLily]

Been personally overseen. Was scouted by IB first, and AvB when over there in April/May.

25m Euros. Club Record.

This ITK from Akqayid, makes me think. Makes me think that we have been talking to AVB for sometime

 

[HappySpur]

I want to ask JJ about my poo, but Spurs Bear has made me really embarrassed now.



And the saddest thing in all of this is that people monitor JJ's status. A person should be able to be logged on without being hounded.

No Jjetset is one of the top itks mate. Like,you,say what he says is going to be as close to gospel as we could hope for.

There are others who aren't as well connected and yet they seem to have tons of info on a regular basis, throwing as many darts to there as they can I guess.

Avb really is turning into the worlds worst kept secret.
