Morning ITK freaks! 24 Days to go...........

Yesterday saw the return of POTL. Oh joy of joys........
POTL said:
I believe last time I posted was saying goodbye to pienaar and hello to Ade, 1 has happened, 1 was done but we have had some hold ups- have posted before on the complexities of a transfer. Ade still massively ongoing and confident of completion.

In other news today is a big day at the lodge. Players are being told today who is staying and who will be told that they are free to find new clubs or loans. Andre gave everybody the opportunity to prove themselves in his first month in charge as has been reflected in the number of participents in friendlies. Now we are back in the UK, expect movement from here on in. Haven't seen the forum board so can't comment on any speculation.
Again on COYS, Jacob on ade...........
Jacob said:
deal is not dead.
and Adebeyor is not the one to blame for the hold up as most of the press seem to be making out. might wanna look a little closer to home.
And finally, COYS completed the hat-trick when our old friend Whofarted told us things we already knew................
Hoofhearted said:
Nothing we don't already know, but I thought I would post anyway. We have always been in for Leandro, just his club naffing us about. Ade, what can I say, we have matched his wages, now he is being greedy and playing silly buggers with Citeh. Not sure who it is but AVB wants a player he coached at Porto, could be any one of three?
AVB wants all business done by end of this week. (he hasn't worked with Levy before) !!!

And that's all folks!

Morning A&C!

Yesterday I posted a Daily Fail article that claimed our outgoing players would be Bassong, Gallas, Jenas, Bentley, and Naughton. Then JJ weighed in.

The original JJetset@jetsetyid
Great story in the Daily fail today. I think they have got basically everything WRONG!!! #numpties



The original JJetset@jetsetyid
@FlyScientist They are guessing and putting 2&2 together and coming up with 5! Blind freddy could have made that one up!


Oops. Guess we still don't know anything about outs.

JJ has just followed it up with

Its inevitable that players will leave but they dont know who and are just making high level assumptions and calling it journalism

Morning.

So the ITK is confirmation of previous ITK. That's ok. Looks like we may eventually get our strikers. (y)

Bassong, Gallas, Jenas, Bentley, and Naughton.

All wrong?

We're not looking to shift a single one of these players? really?

I'd say that it is journalism at a guess. If they wanted to get "The Story" with facts, then they would have included the surprising names. Then it would have been believable as a piece with substance. Instead, you or I could have written it

Well whether it's that 5 (none of who I'd be disappointed to lose) or other fringe players, things are starting to move, just out of interest what goalie gave we stuck with throughout the friendlies?

I hope the surprising names are not too surprising, we have a good team that needs a few additions. The obvious departures do write themselves, the players that may be a surprise are going to be very good players that (on the face of it) we would miss. It depends on replacements, of course...

We used both Carlo and Friedel, and only Gomes in the US I believe. Dont think David Button was ever used.

as things go I would say its a pretty reasonable journalistic guess tbh ....... dont see a future for any of them at the club bar possibly Naughton who is young enough to progress and in a position we arent over flowing with options in

v Stevenage - Cudicini / Friedel (half each)
v LA Galaxy - Cudicini
v Liverpool - Friedel
v NY Red Bulls - Gomes
v Watford - Friedel / Cudicini
