While I agree he's not the best player in the league he's a good squad player. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he should be a starter but it's a squad game. Clint Dempsey is not the worst of the sort.
But that's my point, though.
Given the financial rewards of European qualifications; given all of our aspirations; given all of our passion: our squad players should be much better than "not the worst of the sort"!

You say good squad but we have a bigger squad than any other top 5 team when you look at the options City, United, Chelsea and Arsenal have, you see they have smaller squads but more quality

Chelski's squad is so huge they're able to send a dozen of them off on loan and still have amazing quality across the board.

I'm not saying he is.

I'm just saying that I've become pretty jaded with Ade after this season, and I feel that Clint offered the team more effort than Ade ever did. I would rather have Clint on the pitch giving 110% than Ade quite clearly giving about 60%.

I think one of the ITK's mentioned Ade not being too popular with the rest of the team anyway. And IF we are about to start signing a host of players I would rather keep Clint during this period so our squad is not massively messed around with. He'll be happy to play when needed and I'm willing to bet will still pop up with important goals.

There's a clear and positive team spirit at the moment and I think Dempsey has the attitude to continue contributing towards that.


How much can you pick acid tabs up for these days ?

Agree but we sent the same amount out and we still had a much bigger squad then them, they had youth players on the bench a lot whereas we had first team players that barely got a look in

This day has been a long ITK marathon with JJ & Storts doing the sprint run in the end.

Regarding Caulker - he is a good prospect - but I think he needs to be playing regularly. I dont think he is still matured enough to suddenly asked to play a day and concentrate 100%.

1 player I would really want us to go for is Micah Richards - he will give Walker the competition at RB as well. He is made for PL.

Too injury prone. How many games has he played in the last 2/3 years?

Interesting question.

It is no coincidence that the dumbing down of modern society has run alongside a lack of availability for hallucinogenic drugs. Acid, readily available alongside new drug Ecstacy in the late 80s, has declined to a level where it is almost unseen on the shopping list of the young pill-popper, instead replaced by such chemical enhancers such as cocaine, speed variants, ecstasy, meth, ketamine & many more that seem strange & terrifying to a man of my age.
Intriguingly, the legendary 'doors of perception' opened by the casual acid user appear to have been slammed shut by the more modern party drugs. Conspiricists often marry the reduction of mind-altering/opening drugs with high levels of fluoride in water, widespread use of aspartame and other sugar 'poisons' and vaguely altered food additives in diminishing the impact of the pineal gland; reducing brain power and intuition & creating a subservient, unquestioning follower mentality amongst the wider population.

The last time I was aware of acid being purchasable was in about 1996, from a band of travellers & the man who brokered the deal has subsequently died, suggesting a precarious road that should not be traversed.

So, despite your interest, I recommend giving the acid a swerve, BC.

Tabs are dirt cheap if you have connections.

Also Dempsey I can take or leave, he's a good player to have around but he's probably a load on the wage bill.

I can assure you that acid was definitely available in abundance in Kent around 1998-2000.

Judging by Daredevil's posts, I would say acid is still very much in circulation. And is still providing the very reasonable bang for buck ratio it always did.

Well yeah as a rule Keith Richard is never going to be more than 10 feet away from LSD at any given moment.


Decided to decriminise myself. Now people have no idea what we're talking about. Teehee.

You can find bongos there at sunrise. BONGOS!

For those who aren't of the acid-tripping variety, come join us over in the Paulinho thread, his agent has spoken, allegedly.

Has this turned into some kind of Spurs Community acid test? I'm in.

With a name like Jerry Garcia that doesn't surprise me!

To keep this vaguely on topic, it would explain a lot of things if it turned out Clint and Ade were tripping for most of last season. For example, Ade against Arsenal at the Lane looked indifferent to even raising his head when the ball was a few feet away from him...but ran like a beast when trying to chase down a back pass to their keeper 50 yards away. Clearly at those points the ball represented a gateway to another realm of love and understanding. Or a cheeseburger.

Wtf? The fact players seem to be interested to play for AVB, players that we wouldn't normally get a sniff at. You think Villa or Paulinho would contemplate spurs with Harry around?
I take it back lol



No way i mean Harry (you know the one that has the best Spurs record since the PL was formed) got us to the CL QF, and fourth two seasons ago by recruiting shitheads.

Carlos-Kick-A-Balls may be coming to Spurs by the dozen, but i have seen far too many false dawns for an unproven Brazilian and an over the hill Spanish forward being linked to Spurs to get a wow factor by a name.

Uh, Harry doesn't have the best PL Record, AVB does, but good effort all the same Gammon. I especially like how all the player's we're after are carlos kickaballs now or over the hill, even though David Villa as an over the hill player is 15x better than Adebayor and Defoe.
