Good morning ITK freaks. Wow. Yesterday ITK went into overdrive didn't it? I don't know where to start. We had it all. Harry's going, Harry's staying, I had a hissyfit and the whole thing was dizzying. Crazy times.

I took a break from it all yesterday by having a game of Monopoly with the wife. After all, Its the only chance she'll ever have of winning a beauty contest.

Yesterday, my wife asked me to get a cake for our 20th wedding anniversary with no candles on it. Well, I assume that's what she meant when she said "One for every happy year we've spent together."

The ITK all started when Ryantegan posted this
ryantegan said:
Harry meeting Levy today!

Harry is resigned to the fact that his time at Spurs is over. He believes that the people he has to work with (above him) are a horrible bunch. His words not mine! Would take an awful lot to turn this situation around.
We had no idea what was to follow.........

Then BEN posted player ITK......
BEN said:
young forest centre half told deal done and we are loaning him back
Which is old news.........

Then Hertsyid on COYS lit the fuse
Hertsyid said:
I work with a company that has an executive box at Spurs, and go quite a lot as a guest of them. The guy I speak to there just sent me this on IB...
"Redknapp tinned"
They tend to have pretty good contacts at Spurs. This is not ITK. But it's as close as I will usually get.
Just passing on.
Ps the saying goes "no smoke without fire"... and there's a hell of a lot of smoke at the moment.
And so it began........

Akqayid told us 'Don't Panic, Don't panic!'
Akqayid said:
Mr Manwearing.....

But Harry's Gone. That's the round robin Chinese whisper. It's also what my contact has told me around 15 minutes ago. He's currently in the US at the US Open in SF. (lucky bugger)

Refused the rolling deal, never eye to eye, and all the other things we've heard and discussed on a million threads this week.

Other news Comfirmed today - Green going QPR as I said last week, he just needs to sign. Will be done after euros. Bullet Dodged.

Modders, Madrid or PSG if he wants £150k a week. Never ever ever going Utd. Ever.

Nothing else - oh the club being sold... That Kiwait thing. Biggest nonsense ever (from a different source)
Sweet baby Jesus..........
And it continued.......In what was probably the most baffling post of the day, BEN said......
BEN said:
'from the old nwest London Jewish boys now with good sources'
I have no idea what he was on about.........

Archie from SO gave us his opinion.......
Archibald said:
In a thread about Harry meeting with Levy, people began to doubt some of the current ITK
Originally posted by a user on SO
I won't doubt it when Peanut, Archi, Jjetset or POTL confirm. All the same, their silence is condemning.

Archie simply stated 'gawn'

He then added: it was gone.........The rumours and smoke I believe are true
Oh no!..........

BEN came back and swam against the tide
BEN said:
Harry not gone Had confirmed now from club
Is that as it stands right now but could change? Who knows?

Archie returned with more........
Archibald said:
i have no reason to believe i have been fed wrong info, im sure may be a day or so as compensation and contracts need sorting i suppose. We will see either way
Yep, we'll see. Hopefully soon.

Then the Journalist entgered the fray.........
The Journalist said:
So I signed on earlier today to post and seen all the Harry talk.
So been trying to find out seeing as there is lots of it;
I can tell you that the club are refuting it and are looking into where these stories are starting.
I’ve been told that Harry hasn’t spoken to Levy for a while. He sent a text and left a message last week; but hasn’t spoken to Levy personally, or anyone at Tottenham for a few weeks; he’s having a complete break from the club for a few weeks.
Personally; there’s not enough sound around the journalists to suggest it.
Personal opinion Harry will still be charge BUT I know they had plans to bring in coaching group with Deschamps when they thought he was heading to the top job.

The news I was going to publish earlier was that Madrid have made contact about Modric. But its still going to be a long way off before you see signs of any transfer happening.

Belgium defender still pending; but told now unlikely any deals announced/completed for at least a couple of weeks.
Some might say that of course the club are refuting it. As Archie said, we'll see.........

Hertsyid came back with an update......
Hertsyid said:
Ok so I just had a beer with the guy who gave me info earlier. He said the following. But I will repeat what I said earlier, this guy is not personally ITK, my info is second hand info, and it may all be rubbish. Anyway in spite of that....

Redknapp recently signed a new agent(?)
Redknapp was in Dubai recently and met some people who offered him a lot of money to move to Qatar. I don't know if national team or domestic.
Redknapp met Levy today with said agent. The meeting went badly. New agent pushed Qatari story onto Levy, wage demands, threats to walk away etc.
Levy took this badly, refused the 4 year contract extension that was demanded.
Meeting ended with Harry walking out.
As a result of all this the assumption is, and this is where the rumours come from, that Harry and Spurs are on the brink of parting company. Believe what you will..
And so we prepare ourselves for another onslaught. Who said being a Spurs fan was ever going to be easy?

Then some player ITK when JJetset posted this regarding Stevan Jovetic
JJetset said:
He is not our number 1 choice....
Never heard of him.

A bit of light hearted fun ensued when Happyspur posted this
HappySpur said:
Two things

1) Adiepf said yesterday and asked to be banned if it wasn't the case. It wasn't the case. Perhaps you missed that. So build a bridge. But this is not one of those things.

2) Speaking of things missed, Ryan information doesn't imply Harry will be fired. It implies that Harry is unhappy with the current circumstances and he may not stay. So the anti-Levy talk is a bit misguided. I'm sure you can find other reasons to bash him if you put your minds to it *cough* Vertonghen *cough*

3) I didn't go through all pages, but am I the only one that caught the connection between an ITK that lives in a "tree" making a statement about a player from a "forest"?
Proving there are three kinds of people in this world. Those who can count and those who can't ;)

I read out the label: "Side effects can include a lack of sexual desire, intense, unpredictable mood-swings and weight gain." Then I walked back into the bedroom and said to my wife, "How many of these fucking headache pills have you been taking every night?"

My wife came home from work early today and caught me shagging our neighbour doggy style.

"Take your willy out of her vagina!" she screamed.

I said, "Babe, this is not what it looks like."

"What is it then?" she shouted.

I said, "Anal."

Yesterday, the site got so busy due to all the ITK that we started crashing and for a while people were unable to access the site or it was running really slowly. Rob upgraded the site RAM/Memory, but that didn't come cheap, a few people were kind enough to donate and that was appreciated but we need more! So if you love your ITK and want to help SC out, please make a donation today, Look at the hours of fun you get. All the ITK in one happy location helping you idle away the working day and get away from 'er indoors when you get home. That's gotta be worth a few quid hasn't it?

Thank you for the update A&C. Lots and lots of rumours yesterday, will be interesting to see if it will continue today.

Luckily, SC is NOT blocked from my office! And, in other news, I will not get much work done today... :whistle:

I called my therapist to ask how to deal with this blow to me ego. I lack confidence and self-esteem. He said "Do you want pepperoni on that?". And I realized I wasn't mad at A&C as much as I was at my therapist who has taught me a lot about toppings, side orders, soda options and even how to curse in Greek, but little in the way of dealing with cyber-bullies like A&C. I really think he's a bad therapist, but he sure does make the best hawaiian pizza. I guess the point is that group sex with an Albanian biker gang in the back alley of a porn shop is a good way get Hep-C.

There is already ITK from Storts, who says the Fail story on Naughton to Villa may have legs. It's in the RO.

I hope this ins't true as having the two Kyles this season is going to be at least one position completed sorted. They have both proven ability to do a job there and we are going to need to rotate.

Hertsyid ITK is more or less confirmed (or possibly repeated) in the Guardian today.

I'm just waiting to see if Ryan has still got his....
Anything of note happen yesterday?

We saw a bandwagon... it formed quickly and then suddenly evaporated into thin air. Good times.

And some non-footballing ITK; there is a good chance that I might be quit my job today. I just thought I'd keep you all in the loop ....
