If it was a turn of phrase why did he tweet:

making me angry now! Wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

Shortly after?

Since i want this particular deal to be true, i choose to believe he was reminded to say nothing hence the turn of phrase tweet.
Now, chances are it simply is a pub convo, but thats the beauty of ITK; The ones i like i find ways to be true, the ones i dont i call rubbish.

Simples:cool:

No idea. For me personally I just can't envision a world where Spurs land Hulk. Might actually be in the top 3 of winger tandems in the world.

I can just about conceive of the possibility of us signing Hulk. The transfer fee would be hefty but we might be able to afford his wages.

Hulk is never gonna happen.

If we buy from Porto it will Moutinho but their chairman would never sell Hulk to us as well. It's like Levy selling both Bale and Modric to Inter Milan in the same window. Never gonna happen.

Im sorry but is 'Whofarted?' as he was affectionately called as per his own pun on the teeny weeny Spurs forum I helped run back in 05/06 really still considered ITK by COYS. I know exactly who is his source is/was. It was Darren Bent's dad as they played golf together now and then. He quickly grew tired of having his balls washed by the 50 or so hardcore members on that tiny forum and wanted more exposure so toddled off to COYS.

Otherwise, you'll forgive me but reading that as just someone who doesn't want to give up his badge and is parroting a bunch of rumours already posted by others or from the media.

That's not to bash him but considering I even know who his source was, and if he still gets info it 39th hand via agenda-driven agents, Darrent Bent and then his father, dubya tee eff.

I'm amazed to see the name tbh.

I remember him saying Ashley Young was at Holly House a fee years ago having a medical for us... I don't think his info is that ground breaking either just a rehash of what we already know.

Due to work, I haven't been able to check out this thread in recent days...and when you revisit it, after over a week...you truly realise... through all the ITK...nothing actually ever happens!!! lol

If a thread page in this forum was a piece of paper...we'd all be guilty of cutting down a whole rainforest! :)

Not sure if this has popped up yet...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...ttenham-boss-Andre-Villas-Boas-FIVE-door.html

Daily Mail claiming that, as POTL posted this morning, AVB told the players today who didn't feature in his plans. Bentley, Jenas, Bassong, Gallas, and Naughton reportedly free to go. Also reporting we are interested in Dembele. It is the Mail though, and no quotes, so salt required...

Hmmm strange. We'll never know a players attitude in the changing rooms, or if AVB prefers potential targets in their positions but Bentley and Gallas (especially) I thought looked good in pre-season.

Perhaps our need for a Modric replacement is disappearing...

I'm guessing that neither was used in a 'turn of phrase' context but he has realised he's potentially dropped himself in it with his source(s) and is trying to backtrack. ('Lockdown' and all that.)

Tic toc. The beginning of the season is edging closer.

Even if we bought Ade now how many weeks would it take to get him match fit? Is he even in training with City?

Expecting a frantic last day of the transfer window and although exciting I could rather do without.

I know it's the fail but I'm surprised Naughton is in that bunch.... I'd have thought he's a definate to be held on to. So versatile and still young enough to improve. Shame for Bassong, I rate him but totally understand it being the best move for all concerned. Can we presume GDS gets one more chance? Surely we need to clear more than that to allow room for incoming players??

If the article is correct then (I'm reading between the lines here) including Ledley & Alnwick, that's 5 'home-growns' off the list? Must mean Carroll is in the 1st team squad?? Maybe Townsend?
