The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The BEN HUR Edition 7th July 2012

[Rogmeister]

I think we have been a bit spoilt with itk recently. Today seems like a really slow day!

 

[mattyspurs]

Storts has been a well respected ITK as long as i've followed these forums on here. He doesn't post often and doesn;t tend to give a lot away when he does. But when he does he is usually bang on the money.

I agree with you re storts. Always a reliable ITK

Just come back from seeing the Olympic Torch . Sad to say it was about as exciting as the action on here today.

Please let something happen

This thread isn't dead. If anything it's being used properly at last and might encourage people to spread their wings and explore the rest of the site.

There is still ITK to discuss. It just seems that some people don't want to talk about it until its been confirmed by certain people - which is fine, it just means its discussed elsewhere on SC. Can you imagine if u were on a site that didn't give u such options and you couldn't discuss it at all?

This is an extra-ordinary time for Spurs and ITK. Ordinary service will resume soon.

Exciting times.

I would love to see Stefan "shooooot" Freund back at the club.

Shame that the 'best' ITK now seems to be coming from the site that shall not be named because two of our own have left

He clearly loves the club. Met him and his son at United v Spurs quite a few years ago - directly in front of us in the Spurs end. Dressed in his Spurs shirt, baseball cap full of Spurs badges and his son dressed up in Spurs gear also. Genuinely a nice guy.

I remember it clearly - it was the day that (the real) JJ scored that free kick.

So which one are you?

 

[jimtheyid]

I remember that. I was in the adjacent stand and saw him too. Legend.

This guy is called Alan - one of my mates. I'm directly behind with my 2 sons. I remember the group of people in the stand below singing SF is a football genius song! Thanks for that! I've saved this pic and will send him it!

Edit - clearly time dulls the memory - was sure his son had his Spurs gear on too!

 

[McFlash]

I might have to dig out my pony shirt if Freund joins.

Not wanting to spam but I have to agree. Years ago I watched spurs vs millwall at the millwall training ground in downham. Was a preseason friendly. Ledley was just breaking into the first team and we still had Darren Anderton and ginola.

After the matching went and met most of the players. Including judas and George graham.

I have to say freund was the nicest bloke there. Asked me all about myself and actually sees interested. Ginola was a rude twat who looked at me like he had just trod in me.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Well today might finally bring Vertonghen. He's going to be such a classy addition. I've missed all the madness the last few days but now I can try to follow it between the nappy changes and feeding.

Incontinence is inconvenient, but one must try to eat.

 

[DJS]

A&C, you're a genius with those opening posts.

A fucking mentalist genius, but they're the best kind!

From Cambridge?

From Cambridge?

Nearer to Chelmsford / Harlow I'd imagine.

 

[mil1lion]

I love the clip of Ginola talking about Freund on Soccer AM.

Arbeit!

Good morning tards, here's your weekend thread.

But first............

BEN HER – A tale of the eyeteekay

Using the SC Time Machine we went back to ancient Roman times, specifically to a date a few days before the great chariot race.

I was lying on a couch being fed grapes by a naked slave with massive bosoms but it didn’t feel right. Tits that big just don’t look right on a geezer. So I got up and changed couches. This one was better. The bosoms were slightly smaller but these came with a vadge and as she was just starting to tickle my town halls a eunuch entered, carrying a roll of parchment.

‘Read it’ I said as I shifted slightly and let out a rip snorting fart, straight into the female slaves face.

The eunuch, who was naturally unnmoved by the site of the slave girls head bobbing up and down as she tried her best not to gag said ‘its from the Prince of Her’

You mean ‘BEN her?’ I asked………The eunuch nodded.

‘He says we’re signing Lesteri Piggottus to drive our chariot in the great race’

I dismissed the eunuch and as he left a thought crossed my mind ‘Oddieus’ I called. The eunuch turned, I said ‘In future bring me all ITK straight away

And that was the first ever ITK in ancient Rome. And like all new fashions, it caught on quickly. A while later, I was being carried through the streets in a litter by four slaves (I was going to choose the Mk6 but being carried by six slaves seemed a tad extravagant) and I saw a poster nailed to a wall. It was a proclamation by Senator Acqiulinusyid stating that he had been informed that a meltdown of all gold coin was to be held and a trophy fashioned out of it all to present to the winner of the great race. More ITK. And the people were lapping it up.

As we paraded through the street, people were gathered everywhere, discussing the latest ITK, I could hear snippets as we passed

‘psst! Noodlus says we could get new horses’

‘It’s true! Archibaldus thinks we’re investing in new chariots’

One person was arrested and banned from public meetings on the spot for talking about something off topic when he asked if the price of oranges had gone up.

The frenzy was astonishing. Finally we reached the city square. A messenger was stood on some steps with literally hundreds of people gathered around him. ‘A prclomation from Guyus Julius Pottle’ he shouted. ‘To celebrate the great race we shall be sacrificing a Goat’………..Just as he’d got the word ‘Goat’ out an arrow fizzed through the air and killed him stone dead.

Someone screamed ‘The Messenger has been shot, the Messenger has been shot’ and people started running in a panic. Calm was eventually restored after several arrests were made.

Eventually, The great race arrived, the race was run and none of the ITK’s predictions bore fruit. As one wise old man put it, ITK had never been the same since the Oracles at Delphi disappeared.

And now it was time for me to come back. I paid one last visit to the spa where I was pleasured by a mother and daughter from Gaul using techniques passed down from ancient Karnak. I laughed as the wizened old hag pointed at me as I left and said……….

In the beginning, there was chaos. Chaos was darkness, the waters of the abyss. The first god, The Goat, arose from the waters using nothing but his own strength to give form to his body. The Goat existed alone. All was his. Yesterday and tomorrow were his. Alone, he took his penis in his hand. He made love to his fist. He made his exquisite joy with his fingers. And from the flame of the fiery blast which he kindled with his hand, eyeteekay was formed.

And there you have it. ITK in ancient Roman times. How much has changed? How much has survived the thousands of years and has its roots in Rome? I’ll leave that up to you to decide………

Should actually be a "Genius" rating formed on the basis of this post...........Made my morning

Ladies and Gentleman. We are gathered here today to celebrate the life of our beloved friend, "the ITK Discussion Thread". At times he made us laugh. At times he made us cry. Many times his rights and laws were abused, with some of the most shocking, pointless, verbal diarrhea ever seen.... since someone gave Kerry Katona a microphone. But with each death comes the promise of a new life and I'm afraid to say he's got a cooler, funkier brother across the street called the "Twitter Thread". Get dooooooown with the Twitter Thread!!

Stort's ITK in the RO about Freyers was spot on yesterday! Didn't realise he was one of the sharper ITK'S, Akqayid said he was well informed, with contacts to the club.

Storts info is very good IMO, he doesn`t post on SC much, I think he posts more on COYS, but his info is solid.

 

[theShiznit]

A&C is right, this thread has a definite feel of Ben Hur about it...

Boring as fuck.

 

[meursault]

Jasper on SO re. Freund

Archibald confirms he is the 'football genius'​
