This is modern football.... the way it ended, and who ended it.

But it was on us - if we could have kept up, if we hadn't messed things up so badly, he might well have stayed.

Tbf Charlie's played a blinder - there are so many people happy to see him go

He was one of the best, one of the very best, in 139 years there's only one player who's scored more goals than him, He came for nothing, he leaves funding a chunk of the next team.

I hate that it's sullied like this - we loved him, we should still love him - but that's the way it is. And it's worked - I'm not sure that asking DL nicely would have had the desired effect.

In time we'll feel better, and it probably had to happen. Once we didn't renew the Poch team properly, it was going to end - some many of the key parts are gone now. It's time for the next team - will it be glory? Or will be Andy Sinton all over again?

Harry, I'll love you again, you bastard - but for now you can **** off.

short summary for those of us that have gaming obligations?
Trix says he’s going, fee likely to be below £150m but with add-ons that could take it above that mark. Nuno wants him out and Paratici wants the money soon lest we miss out on targets. Herc confirms that Levy is in communication with City. May be some other details I’m not remembering off the top of my head.

That image of Kane surrounded by the sea of supporters from the finale at the Lane hits different after the last few months for sure. At the time I thought it was joy from bringing his boyhood club to new heights, but it seems as if we became a vehicle for his personal ambitions somewhere along the way.

There were hints though. I personally sort of willfully ignored them. Was it really for the best that he rushed back to play in two finals while clearly unfit? Or that our press suddenly died off in early ‘19, breaking the system of the best manager we’ve had in decades (arguably leading to him getting canned)?

He‘s personally responsible for several of the best moments in my life in recent years, esp in 2016 when everything here in the States started going to shit, and I thank him for that. But he can fuck right off. It didn’t have to be this ugly, but the way it went down only means that what we thought he was all along was largely projection on our part.

Lets reinvest, reload, and rebuild around a squad that wants to wear the shirt. Hard to imagine a sharper contrast than that of him and Sonny, who despite not having childhood loyalties to the club has become everything we wished Kane actually was.

well as much as people are excited i certainly am not. Were in huge trouble losing all of our goals and assists from last year :/
I literally couldn't give you potential replacements that id be excited about for him in world football let alone ones thatll come play in the Conference league?
Never thought I could full on dislike Harry Kane but hes literally done us dirtier than even Berba...
We were always going to lose him anyway sooner or later. Do we lament and slit our wrists worrying about how we replace him? No, that's not going to do us any favours. So yeah let's look forward and get excited about the future. We never hit the heights with him and HK isn't going to be the last decent striker we ever have. Coys.

Kane's a ****, some of us are emotional, some drunk and Blue moon are stalking this thread.

Oh, and Trix and Herc suggest that Harry may well be off.
They both were wrong before and will be wrong in future

5 months ago, I wouldn’t have begrudged him a move as he was a youth product of our club who had become one of the best strikers in Europe. Someone of his stature, a model pro needed a team success to cement his status. Fast forward to now, he’s showing himself to be a petulant self obsessed individual who will lie to keep his brand intact. The way he’s gone about this is worse than Berbatov. Carrying on like he was “one of our own” but yet being a snake worse than the Squirrel Whisperer. At least Berba made it no secret we were a stop off club for him.
Even Bale, he kept quiet until Madrid came back in for him, as far as we know his “strike” was to squeeze more money out of Madrid.
Harry is the England Captain and our vice Captain who has tried to make Spurs look silly, in his quest for plastic accolades with a financially doped City team.
He could have just waited it out an let City bid for him until Spurs accepted the bid. That way his legacy would be intact and still have respect with much of the fanbase.
That’s all gone now. All pissed away in a couple of weeks.
As good as he is as a striker, most of us now just will see him as just that, not “one of our own”, just another player who graced the Premier League.
If he was that good a player he would have been able to bring success in semi finals and finals, games which he went missing in.
Don Paratici will make us stronger in the longer term , than Kane I’m sure of it.
Spot on. I hope the juice was worth the squeeze.

I couldn't give a toss either way.

The only thing that gets my back up is thinking that Charlie Kane will think he's played a worldie.
He'll think he's the bloody Wolf of Wall Street and that he's orchestrated everything.

He'll have no self awareness to realise he's just a silly little plonker-bitch.
