If you can tear yourself away from Ryan Giggs’ penis for just one moment…
I of course stole that from Ben Goldacre in the Guardian. As I commented to an esteemed colleague, there are opening lines and there are opening lines. That has to be the modern equivalent of Call me Ishmael.
That’s the fastest digression ever.
Arguably good news – cheerfully doing the rounds this morning like a happy bin man – is that enquiries are being made for old 3MP. This will be received belligerently by those who have footage of that goal against City kept ion a locket about their necks and it won’t please Arry.
First through the door was apparently Steve Bruce. Apparently there has been little or no communication since the price was revealed. What that figure was I cannot tell you.
Second had been what the press would call the threat of an audatious swoop from none other than QPR. Again I don’t have any figures.
Bruce is obviously sitting on his Barren Dent dosh and the QPR interest reveals that – despite all the mumbles coming out of Loftus Road – they are planning to give it a good go and not just rake in as much as they physically can while they’re here.
As I say, it’s difficult to believe Arry is in a hurry to flog Pete. Yet another good reason to have that splendid Mr Levy running the show.
BIOYC!
Actually think 3MP would do a half decent job for both Sunderland or QPR.
Cant see him getting too many 50 yaods to his head from Taarabt though.
*yard punts onto
was close
Nice tribute to G S-H too. I prefer his more musical funk stuff like “The Bottle”.
He could have added a line or two to this one though…something like
Spurs wont splash the cash, but Whitey’s on the moon
or
Someone stood on Crouch’s shoulders, a cheaper way to put Whitey on the moon.
is the title of that gil scott-heron poem a subtle reference to our own 3MP? You’ve really tied your whole outfit well together this morning, haven’t you dear?
Plus the Moby Dick reference….White Whale anyone?
3MP is infuriating, but I’d still consider him a good “option” player for us…….. Frankly I’d have no qualms at seeing the back of Defoe and Keane, but 3MP tho’ not be the most used tool in the swiss army knife that is our squad and certainly not the sharpest, may come handy one rainy day.
Sorry, off topic for a moment but seen this?
Obvious fakes but like both away shirts.

if only. the home shirt’s nowhere near white enough, but aside from that isn’t bad, and the away ones are fantastic.
Our home will be very similar to this methinks.

Not that it impacts next seasons kit, but as it turns out an old friend of mine is working as a designer for Under Armor at their Baltimore HQ. Heard a lot of good things about the company, but none of it pleased me so much as to hear that there was apparently a considerable contingent of Spurs fans among the ranks of the employees.
For the sake of all my good friends here on HH, I will of course press on for juicy details about our future kits :angel:
tell them to keep it simple please ,leave all the poncey stuff to the rest :winke:
If we could get rid of just one player this window, it would be Crouch for me! His inclusion in our side, single-handedly ruins our style of play and I could understand it if he scored loads of ugly headers but he hardly ever scores, has no pace, shoots like a schoolgirl, can’t tackle….I sincerely hope you are right H!
