Seeing as we didnt get an announcement yesterday, dare we expect two today...?

Adebayor and Vertonghen?

We did get the Caulker contract yesterday...

 

[mattyspurs]

Vertonghen would be excellent news. The rumours that he will be here for pre season are really hotting up now, so hopefully we can put this one to bed.

I'm still not sure on this investment, more of a case of i'll believe it when I see it. But if anything helps fund the stadium, whilst keeping Levy in the hot seat, then i'm all for it.

friday is supposed to be the day spurs do all their business

Not good to see that people are still neg repping posts in the RO.

 

[Ribble]

Given Watford's new owners also own Udinese and Granada I don't think that conflict of interest idea holds much water. Indeed ENIC also used to own Slavia Prague as well as us, didn't we even play them once in the UEFA cup during that time?

That's spot on, I've accidentally done that when scrolling down in the iPad!!! Not that I've got fat fingers mind I'm just big boned!!!

Cocks! Too stupid to own an iPad!






I've done it too...

If the Qatar Investment Authority buys 25% of THFC what are they going to do with the naming rights?
Sorry, just can't see Qatar Investment Authority Arena, QIA Arena or Qatar Lane...
Do they have a brand to endorse?

I hope to see Vertonghen announced today.

Him and Messi announced today wouldn't be too bad.

Isn't their brand on the front of the barca shirts?

 

[Annabel]

And is Qatar pronounced cutter or ktar?

I'll be very pleased if Fryers is true. Seems like the defence could be sorted for a long time!

They have 6% stake in Credit Suisse so it could be the Credit Suisse Arena.

This all feels a little too exciting to be a Tottenham transfer window

think it's pronounced as Kar-tar...with emphasis on the K

Buying shares won't buy them the naming rights. Did I miss something ? Naming rights = sponsorship. Buying shares = owner.

 

[McFlash]

Verts today, maybe Ade too - would be nice, seeing as though I'm catching up with a gooner mate tonight.

I haven't been this excited and optimistic about Spurs since...well, probably last season to be honest. I get hopelessly enthusiastic at about this time every year. Always have, always will and blindly refuse to ever learn!

Someone suggested White Qatar-t Lane...

Yeah, don't really want the K'tar arena - although looking slightly Klingon, it also sounds like we've been suffering from a cold and hawking up grollies!
Pick the bones out of that.

 

[jedimonkey]

But with an altogether better class of player than Frank brought in, one hopes.

What did happen to Leigh Mills?

Ha, I'm from Andover where Leigh was living when he signed for us. I was in the States at the time but was very excited that a local lad had signed for Spurs.

He left us, got his girlfriend pregnant, retired and became a carpenter, got married and then came out of retirement to play for Winchester.
