Morning.
The unmitigated cobblers of transfer speculation had a bucket of ice cold water hurled over it yesterday as Arry revealed that Spurs had not made a single enquiry about Adebayor.
I’ve mixed feelings on the definitive news he won’t be coming to The Lane. His form has gone right off the boil of late no two ways about it, but I do find him a more convincing Premiership option to 3MP. Given a run, he could have done us some good.
Blistering Bob Keane is now in the shop window. Well, sort of in the back, behind some old shop fittings. Actually, he nipped out for a Topic and a Lucozade a few days ago and no one’s too sure where he is.
But the latest is that he might be going to Ajax. And a swap deal for anyone including El Hamdaoui, Gregory van der Wiel, Urby Emanuelson….
I’d say a bookie would give a price on that not dissimilar to the one for Roy Hodgson signing him. PSB has two immediate problems. The first is that he cannot make the Spurs’ first team anymore. The second is that he is not cheap to keep.
Any sale will include the blushes saving, ‘undisclosed fee’ line and he is looking at at least a 50% wage cut. At least.
The answer lies upon the ploughed fields with white lines upon them in Scotland and he really ought grab the opportunity whilst it’s there. Bob still has his supporters. Those hardened few who see beyond his ‘boyhood club’ fiasco and his decay when he eventually returned.
I have no time for the guy. But I don’t hate him and that’s why he ought to go North and salvage some self respect. I haven’t as clue how likely a move to Villa might be, but I just see this as just another potential twist in the PSB death throes.
Come On You Spurs lets beat Twente and top the group.
Anyway I just seen a fox which is a good omen for Spurs.
Big one too nearly three feet tall standing up with a splash of white on his chest.
And get this he was standing on a busy road in north london at lunchtime watching the traffic go by more like a dazed oap than a scared fox.
He was there for a while too but I left after five minutes but people stopped to film him on their mobile and mums stopped their prams so their nippers could have a better look.
I am used to seeing foxes late at night in the shadows but this one was bold as brass in the middle of the day looking totally chilled out.
Must be something to do with the weather because it is -10 or something in London today with a biting wind which is very unusual for this time of year.
Anyway. The North London Fox must be a good omen so COYS !!!
The last fox I saw wasn’t such an impressive specimen. It was spindly and looked like it had recently been used to clean a drainpipe.
Here’s to your one being a good omen :daumen:
had one in the garden this morning, quite unerved the good lady of the estate
The sight of her in her Flannelette nightie ‘dans les turf’ must have been … extraordinary.
I saw a red squirrel today. :daumen:
PSB he served us well,
we wish him all the best,
we’d love it more if someone came
and offered us a vest
its missing something though not sure what …
Unless you are overseas you must be on my birthplace; the Isle of Wight (or the Pile of Shite as I prefer)?
I’m overseas and underpaid.
I’m overseas but only depending where you are talking from
They are the salty ones, or the chewy ones? I forget…
Humour? ;-)
I hit a Badger once, destroyed my front bumper. That was a bad Omen.
Heres to hammering Twente and getting an easy draw for the next round. And a shiny new 20+ goal striker for crimbo. COYS!
ahhhh, many thanks for the wildlife update….
