The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The Joan Jett Edition 28th June 2013

This was in relation to Yilmaz?

My bad. He said that Yilmaz was 45m euro and Levy had already submitted the bid.

This more lame bit of news if regarding the has-been Villa

Snarky (but I like it)

Contextual Striker sounds great but I also quite like the idea of an Incoherent Striker...

Andy Carroll?

so the £9mil referred to David Villa, not Yilmaz? And why aren't we in for Darren Bent?

Well FTL doesn't strike me as a place that tolerates WUM's. I don't know for certain. What do you think Bizness? You know FTL as well as anybody.

This guy has made 3 posts in 3 years, so it's difficult to tell. FTL is a closed forum so you can't just register and start wumming. Maybe it's genuine.

That was kind of my thought process as well.

Angel Eyes, you're not the same AE from AVForums are you?

No this is the only one I participate in, anything else would be cheating !

Rabbi Crackers was a regular there, wasn't he?

All sounds nice but one thing scares me a bit:

IF we land 2 strikers, Paulinho and maybe a wide forward, what happens to the Sig and Townsend?

If we are reasonably successful in all competitions, we will have 38 league games, 5 or 6 each in the FA and League cups, and about 182 in the Europa League.
Plenty of game time to go around.

 

[Greenspur]

I think all signings will be left till the last minute. Most likely one seems to be Paulinho but he is a midfielder and we have a REALLY good midfield already. Him coming over only really makes sense if Bale is on his way out imo.

Villa may happen but lets face it. He is 31 years old and not exactly in his prime. Still very good but slowing down which would leave us with Aderbayor and him up front. Not exactly the dream team strike force we heard touted at the beginning of the transfer window...

You're really a 'glass half full' type of guy, aren't you?

Im on there Bizness, I figured it was you as you were using the same tag as here....

 

[Greenspur]

Has anyone else this experience, on this thread (happens to me regularly) .....

Say, for example, there are 26 pages in the thread and you are only on page 20. You reply to a post and your reply pops up on page 20. So do a few recent posts from others.
Some time later you arrive at page 26. There is your post, along with the few others. Everything has been miraculously transformed.
What IS this time- warp thing? Is it the proverbial paradox?

Its just to show you that you did post I guess, but it is placed at the time you posted (at the end of the thread).

Wow, plenty of chewy ITK! Look what happens when I get called to an emergency meeting of the Ladyboys & Crossdressers theatrical society.

Ladyboys & crossdressers theatrical society?

Do they have a forum and discuss football on it?

no but you will occassionally get a bit of football banter in the thread "Plucking, Tucking and Genital Reconstructing"

Lots of itk today and fingers crossed we see it realised in the form of an actual announcement before too long

If the press releases in the last few hours are anything to go by (yeah I know we can't exactly trust them), I'd imagine the first announcement will be about David Villa. If they're to be believed, fee is sorted & he has agreed personal terms.

So you got your inspiration for the Goat from years of tucking it back then?

Paulinho more likely surely? He's been much more open about us than Villa.
