Player Watch Player Watch: Pedro Porro

[Vwbottom]

Calm down

Classic

This stuff is wildly interesting to me (as I work in banking). What kind of bank finances that type of deal? What collateral do they take?

Maybe its like an asset finance deal, something banks like Macquarrie and Aldermore do

Wouldn’t have thought Sporting can afford to turn down circa 40m and have an unhappy player on their hands. They’d be very brave to do that.

 

[freeeki]

This is absolutely absurd

This is absolutely absurd

No, Its Tottenham Football Club, its how we roll

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Aggregators. It'd be a bastard to implement if we totally banned them, I mean, we currently ask that people don't post them and they still do, either not giving a fuck or not understanding what an aggregator is.

It'd be a monumental task getting the message across because people still follow bullshit Twitter accounts run by idiots, trolls and the terminally thick and then run back to SC out of breath in a rush to post the latest lie. It's a platform open to far too many agenda riddled idiots, populated by spiteful ****s, bullshitting liars and gullible fools who race to get followers by posting falsehoods and nastiness and people buy it. They fucking buy it!

Far easier to just ban Twitter from the Transfer Threads completely than aggregators. Which I have been gagging to do since Twitter was invented

 

[Dazzazzad]

Can you kindly calculate the competition, top 10 surrounding teams in the league to make a sound comparison.

No.

A) this has been done by others and our net spend is one of the highest since the stadium was completed. I'm sure you can find it, I have faith in you.
B) I was responding to a comment that we are spending less than ever. ~900% is more than - 1%.

 

[Greybeard]

I'm hopeful this will still happen.

 

[Tezza1978]

Come on Spurs, I've got 3 client meetings in London tomorrow that my boss is attending with me , I don't want to be distracted by this saga/this bloody thread!!
Get it over the line!

 

[Ginola+Tonic]

This blow by blow of every detail on this is exhausting and incredibly nauseating.
Aggregators wanting to be the first to report something and get the credit of the scoop.

I actually can’t wait for it to be over.

If I dedicated as much time to work as I do diving into Twitter and SC during transfer windows I'd probably own the company I work for by now.

 

[RuskyM]

Oh another meeting!! I bet all involved desperately missed them.

To be fair, it’s a meeting to decide whether they need a meeting. Presumably after that they’ll meet to go over what they went over in the last meeting, and agree to meet again to decide if they should meet again.

Basically an expense account is getting rinsed.

 

[Timberwolf]

You know that film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind where Jim Carrey goes through a procedure to erase all memory of his ex-girlfriend - do you reckon they could do that for transfer windows?

Or maybe the entire concept of Spurs?

 

[Ginola+Tonic]

Anyone want to play what will be the next aggregator update bingo?

Im going for Sporting refusing to let Porro go without a replacement signed first.

 

[Fredo]

No chance this doesnt get done - club suicide if this fails with all the surrounding heat, its literally a must that this gets done.

They're trying to squeeze a bit more- they have to give a big bung to Man City as well don't they?

logic does not apply to our club's management

We'll truly see if lessons have been learnt, because we've been here before and it's only ever gone one way.

 

[L-man]

Sporting confirms that Pedro Porro did not train today. The club's official version is that the player was duly authorized

Porro has actually been a Spurs player for 2 weeks but these intermediaries are desperately trying to fill their meeting hour budget for the month!!
