Good morning.
Another week behind the wheel of the the old Spurs jalopy. We rumble on as we’re overtaken and undertaken on all sides. Rumours in Goonerville are of a medical for Mata and advanced talks for Benzema. Mancini is still playing FM at Eastlands. Dalglish is hoovering up players.
Meanwhile in downtown Tottingham I am told that certain Spurs players are dragging their heels and clutching their contracts.
Defoe, 3MP and J**** are all viewing the prospect of moving oop north and taking pay cut like a tabby cat viewing a swimming pool.
Enquries Bentley consist of Alex McLeish offering £850 and a secondhand set of Dunlop golf clubs. Oh and a Shop Mobility Centre in Gants Hill want him to open their new cafe next weekend.
I’m becoming increasingly cheesed off with the gaping lack of self respect in evidence amongst these chancers. I know J**** is in receipt of a kicking every time his name is mentioned and I don’t get any pleasure from that. But neither do I get any enjoyment from seeing him on the team sheet anymore.
PSB is obviously trying to conduct a face saving exercise but my belief is he will sooner rather than later naff off. But the others are clinging on buy their grasping fingertips.
I’m an advocate of supporting the man in the shirt to the hilt, but our squad is currently burdened with failures who can’t take a bloody hint. Jermain Defoe was booed at Milton Keynes I am told. Whilst I don’t approve, if I was him I’d jack it in and move on. But then I’m not him. I still have my feet on the ground and if I was on £35,000 a week A WEEK and was suddenly told I had to get by on £25,000 a week A WEEK it wouldn’t exactly have me checking down the back of the sofa for loose coins.
I can cope with self interest. We all need to look out for ourselves and those we love, but this just makes me plain angry.
Fackinel, I could strongle them.
To be fair, looking at it from a player point of view, they’re in London on a good whack of money, could you blame them for not wanting to up root move up north and pull in around £60K to £120K a MONTH?
Say Keanes on what, £65K per week? And Blackburn or Brum are only offering hi, £35-40K. Thats ‘roughly’ taking a £1,200,000 – £1,440,000 MILLION paycut. Seriously, would you?
The club should’ve made a decision over a year ago to sell them for a REASONABLE price, not dirt cheap but a fair price and at a time where the buying clubs were willing to pay them a bit more in wages. Now after being farmed out and treated like an old bit of unwanted spare rusty tat no-one is going to offer a decent buying price OR a competitive wage to what we already handed them.
On another note. Where the fook are these signings? Me want Negredo. I’ve decided. That my decision. What say you? One love and all that modern toss.
I do believe my soul will be less dark when J****, PSB, Mutton, 3MP and David Beckham V0.25 get shipped out.
let the light in… please…
Palacios can stay as i think he is good back up still. Johnny two saints only plays well with other Mexicans so he should leave too.
We’ll probably make a loss on these players as usual. I still dont understand how we stay above board when most of our investments turn out so crap.
not being negative, just making an observation.
I have the upmost respect for Jenas and the way he conducts himself.
Lets not forget he rescued us many times against learse and is a decent squad player.
Robbie Keane is still a legend in my book and will go down in history as just that with over a 100 goals for us.
The same with Defoe. If they want to stay and fight for their place they have every right to.
If they stay for much longer we can watch them fight in the Championship.
Yes, well contracts work both ways don’t they – can’t bemoan Modders not wanting to honour his, then grumble about these plebs clinging on to theirs!
on a positive note, we have turned a previously blinded corner. i just have to think back to the days of Doherty etc and im quite happy about where we are right now…
