News just in – well sort of – is that the stellar footballing talent that is Charlie Adam has been subject to a 60% off discount.
You will recall Charlie of course for two reasons. We supposedly placed an eleventh hour comedy bid for him in the January window. I say comedy but it was actually a s funny as nailing one’s genitalia to a burning building whilst listening to Celene Dion played very, very loudly.
The second reason is that he was the bloke who midway through a football match against us appeared to don an invisible Walkman and then dance to ‘Let’s Twist Again’ by Chubby Checker. On Gareth Bale’s ankle.
This is the man who Blackpool essentially mounted their nearly not shambolic Premiership campaign around. That was until last January of course and the whole ‘Liverpool & Spurs are in for Charlie’ trickled around the Tangerine’s dressing room like the canine and indeed human urine does around Blackpool lampposts.
So; was some thing ridiculous like £12million now £4million. Apparently this includes shipping and a copy of ‘Ollies Jollies’ – A side splitting DVD that promises a side-ways glance at life through the eyes of visionary and funny man, Ian Holloway as he meets the people of Blackpool accompanied only by a camera crew, 6 minders and three Alsations.
So what say you? Cheap at three times the price or simply a plinth we should still well clear of? I’m still undecided.
No, yes, I mean no – I dont know!
If we are willing to make an offer it means at least we are prepared to spend some money, which is a start.
Are you saying that we’ve offered 4 (whether you like him or not, he’s worth more than that) or that they’ve offered to sell him for 4 (entirely different things).
I’m ambivalent because thuggery isnt the Tottenham way but he can strike the ball and stationery ball use is a glaring weakness in our team.
Better than Jenas, younger than Parker – in fact rather similar to a certain Mr J OHara I think, so if we get more than 4 from Wolves, why not?
I think we should invite him for a trial and get Dawson and Palacious kick the shit out of him
No..no…no…! Not Adam. If you really want to do that, Nani is the best candidate!
i go for for that
The reason teams are at the bottom of the table is because their players are no bloody good. What happens is that those who are only average, as opposed to absolute shite, are made to look better than they really are. Enter Charlie Adam, a more miserable looking f****r and dirty scumbag you could not wish to meet. For the same reason we should avoid Parker, Johnson and any other overvalued journeyman.
plinth. A porky dirty plinth at that.
And another thing. Azza- VDV- Modders-Sandro-Wilson- Bale- Pienaar- Parker ?
Where the hell does that fat Scottish thug fit in ?
you mean Mutton – he’s still in the Butchers running from his Da
In ‘Arry’s ass…together with Crouchie!
