The Spurs Twitter thread - 13th August 2012

[Gbspurs]

When Rob/SC get taken to the cleaners because people keep posting copyright images in order to say or illustrate fuck knows/who cares what, how deeply will the perps dig into their pockets? We've had rules about this in place for a long time and its getting beyond a joke now.

I do find this interesting. Now I'm certainly not expert in copyright law but surely a public forum must operate under different rules? Rules which would protect hosting. Otherwise facebook and twitter would get screwed. I always thought if a copyrighted image was used in a public domain the only requirement was that reference was made to the copyright.

Anyway rules are rules, and I could be miles off.

Blimey, that is high praise...although, you did liken Leandro to Shearer - and it wasn't a compliment.

I must be thinking of someone else, or basing my opinion on memories from a few years ago. I thought that he showed promise but never really achieved it.
I'm very glad to be wrong on this occasion.

I stand by my comparison of Leandro/Shearer. Both very similar build, type, games and demeanour. I'm not saying Leandro will be as prolific as Shearer usually was, who can tell, but that's who he reminded me of whenever I've seen him. Both typical robust No.9 types who might lack a little finesse and offer limited play outside the box but are pretty effective at finding the goal.

Although I will obviously respect the rules, I've never posted on another forum which doesn't allow copyrighted photos to be posted. Very odd indeed.

I think Leandro has more pace than Shearer ever did but I understand your comparison.

Jeepers, i'd forgotten all about that seedy mess! Why is it i'm not at all surprised by Ribery but oddly disappointed in Benzema?!

Because Ribery looks like a pirate?

Shearer was rapid before his first big injury. He was clever enough to adapt once his pace deserted him though.

Just cannot see any signings being made between now and Saturday, so depressing.

To late for me

You've already decided where to put it?

Good job we got to you in time before you actually got it done then!

#Spurs will be one of the busiest teams come deadline day. Fully expect a #Llorente bid. Funds will be there and AVB knows the need striker.

My mother knows that Spurs need a striker, and she doesn't even know what Tottenham is

Ben Fairthorne will be disappointed then. Kane and Defoe it is, ive convinced myself. Cash there for AVB but Spurs won't give him any of it until 31 August??

Where's that pic of Levy with a wheelbarrow full of cash when you need it?

Edit, close enough?

I dont buy the "Bilbao wont sell Llorente" Story. They were happy to last season and the season before.

Although they wanted shit loads, and so did he

Lucky JJ did drop by for a dose of realism.... he just saved you from a tattoo with two mis spelt names...
