I have it on good authority that the story that has been driving bookmakers bonkers for the past day or so is total twaddle. And he tells me it was quite possibly cooked up by a bookmaker.
My guy is actually a Chelsea blogger and his connections as they say in race horsing circles are pretty close to impeccable. Of course POTL has said the same and for all the ITK knocking that was a very specific rebuttal by him too.
The whole tale stank worse than Dos Santos’ underpants after a big night out anyway. The idea that Abramovich would lose patience with Wilkins, then Ancelotti but then – want to admit Arry ‘NotGuiltyYerHonour’ Redschnapps into his inner circle beggars belief.
‘Alright Roma, I’ve got a mate who can do us a proper little turn ‘ere for sure none of your foreign rubbish – this boy’s got two feet – he ‘as to carry his potential about in a wheelbarra – I reckon 15mil + a few sweeteners and look I’ve spoke to Scotty and he’s over the moo….’ *DIAL TONE*
Why would this story be getting the run it is, its so close to absurd? Not however if the goal was to raise doubts about the stability of the club and in turn unsettle the quality players we have assembled.
They have come out and said they want to stay and that they are enjoying their football………… alright then, lets tell them the Manager is leaving; see what that does. Then let’s say we prime an agent to ask “what if Harry does go?” and the players response is, “well maybe I’ll look at my options” and when THAT breaks (is leaked) in the press, other star players start getting loads of questions.
Then a benevolent Portugese or Spaniard or Italian or (horror) Scotsman starts to woo the players, because with all the hallabaloo, they feel less settled and maybe one or two listen, Maybe agents sensing a payout or slices of obscene wages start to stir the pot…….
It may sound Machiavellien, but then there was a guy called Machaivelli who did this type of shit!
Machiavelli didn’t do it -= he just wrote about it
Bugger all to do with football or Spurs, but Gil Scott Heron dead.
Don’t know why I felt like sharing that but very sad. Proper genius.
Genius is a word too often used these days but it certainly applied to Gil Scott Heron.
i saw him in bournemouth a fair while back,good stuff and he was well up there

I have put a few a few of his tracks on my internet radio.It runs 24/7 but is only a tester at the moment the website is being built.It covers all the best in soul/funk/jazz/rb/house music and gospel.and its genre from 60s till now.Along with Spurs it has been a part of my life.All my spurs friends when we traveled the country used to visit soul clubs and in and around LOndon we used to see all the visiting acts at hammersmith odeon ,rainbow etc , clubs Lacy lady ,goldmine canvey etc .HIS music was prominent.Glad to see spurs fans with musical taste. ASTRO you like it because it is real music like spurs is real football.coys :daumen:
I think you just picked up a new listener. I tuned for half-hour while I had to make a few amendments to a clients ad and heard three tunes I hadn’t heard in years. Don’t know if it’s always that good but you must have some Keb Darge-esque record collection going on.
Seriously good work fella. :cool: :daumen:
Funny, but it makes so much sense now, Spurs at their fluent best make it look as easy as the great Soul stars made it sound. Effortless class.
Nice, let me know when the full version is up. Are you on i-tunes radio as well? The only problem with a mac is getting everything to work through the bloody i-tunes so that you can hook it through the ‘good speakers’… (Pity the neighbours!).
