Hot Off The Press Some Depressing ITK

” My boss spoke to Harry Friday and although it’s old hat in regards of the press doing the story, I can confirm Scott Parker will definitely sign for Spurs. I think we might let them loan a player or two from us although that has no bearing on the deal. If woodgate gets fit, it might be him that turns up at upton “

This from Ryantegan on Spurs Community – sics galore.

My first thought is that you can take the boy out of West Ham, but you can’t take the West Ham out of the boy. I’m not talking about Parker, I’m referring to Arry.

Why in the name of Cliff Richard is the manager of a club with Champions League status looking to buy players from a club in free – fall? This reminds of when The Toon were relegated and there was a queue of people arguing the merits of  poaching players who in some twisted logic were a good bet individually, but only rubbish when seen as part of the whole Newcastle team.

Scott Parker I am sure is a half good footballer. But why would we want him? He won’t be cheap and he won’t work for free.

West Ham’s situation is similar to Newcastle’s. Chaos in the boardroom and gormless players on the park. The best course of action is if you fancy a dash of Schadenfreud, then watch from a distance.

As for Woodgate going there, I have heard some stupid suggestions in my time but this is Top 5 material.

    Whilst I enjoy seeing the demise of chelsea, I also ponder why. What interests me the most is the apparent non-existence of any articles highlighting the fact that this only stopped happening when they axed one ray wilkins!! I mean is it not obvious or am I missing something here? I think he should manage newcastle, if he wants.

      Think it is due in part to their players getting older, selling Ballack and Carvalaho and not replacing them so when they get a few injuries/ suspensions like Lampard, Essien and Terry they have nothing to replace them with.
      Three years ago they had a bench of internationals. Now they have a bench of kids.
      Maybe Roman is feeling the financial pinch!
      Lets hope they don’t regain form this Sunday.
      Bassong & Gallas could struggle with Drogba.

        Possible that Mr Abramovitch has now got what he wanted from the whole thing..ie..Russia winning the World Cup 2018 bid. Having done that and also realised the cold reality of the new financial rules it could be that he views his mission as almost done. Would suggest that the only thing on his to do list is a Champions League win but Chelsea probably missed their best chance ironically in Moscow when ManUre beat them on pens!
