Me again.
There have been a few ‘technical issues’ drawn into the gravational pull that is the boy hotspur. No really, there have been. One amongst many was an email fiasco. You can get me on harry-hotspur@snackmedia.com, but the old faithful, harryhotspur.blogspot.com@hotmail.co.uk still endures.
So this then, delayed but hopefully still good from a regular reader who’s place of employment is a book makers.
“I work for a bookies in the West Country and one of the other shops in the region is frequented by an agent living in the area.
Their manager talking to me and confided that said agent was off to London to talk to Spurs about personal terms for an unsettled player in the Bundesliga.
His suggestion was that if I could find another bookie who’d give odds on Arjen Robben joining Spurs that I snap their hands off.
I laughed at him and suggested that it was more likely Lukas Podolski, or at a push Huntelaar given our needs…. I’d be more inclined to believe it’s Podolski.”
Now first up, thank you to my friend there for sharing.
My initial thoughts are that the Podolski tip came initially from the speculation of the manager he spoke to. The agent wasn’t placing a bet on Podolski. He was betting and mentioned in passing the nature of his business which included a Budesliga name.
I’d be very positive about us signing a German striker. By and large, they tend to know where the net is.
BIOYC!
Dear Lord. Can we organise it so that the season never starts again?
It’s much funnier on here when there’s no football to make us angry. Can we petition DL to pull out of the EPL or something. Just make Spurs like the Harlem Globetrotters of world football… Play the odd game here, an exhibition there. hang with Beyonce & JayZ, we could all do lunch… have a few beers.
If only. Happy summer days.
If we pull out of the EPL they’ll be no disappointments and we’ll all die of too much happiness.
There was some talk about Robben last term with VdV trying to get him aboard, but we missed the boat. I could see us trying for him AND maybe Huntelaar……. all we need then is Martin Jol!
Robben must be almost as old as me but with less hair.
also: less wives.
the thing is once you become a yid thats it for life.So whatever the out come of whatever the situation you still carry on so you need a system to let off steam like a pressure cooker,this blog is the little valve that facilitates that steam escape.Those that leave off supporting spurs were never yids in the first place.
I know I’ve been on the Rioja but can you post in plain English?
Or is this a physics blog ?
I knew you were going to say that!
So did I
I thought he was going to say “Is this a psychics blog?”
That must be next week.
This is heading to one of those “I reeeaaaaaallly love you guyssss” moments. Sadly, I don’t have enough vomit down the front of my shirt… Can anyone help?
You could stick two fingers down your throat
They’re too busy with my kebab.
Now Huntelaar I like. He has a brilliant goals to games ratio but we were trying to sign him this time last year.
Maybe VDV has sweet talked him. You know, promised him a couple of weeks in the caravan at Frinton.
I’m hoping it’s actually Ricky van Wolfswinkel cos that’s such a brilliant name.
Thing of the songs he will inspire
:-D :-D :-D
This really is superb. It has to be something that fits to the tune of ‘High on a hill stood a lonely goat-herd’… Then all the shelf side can sing
Yayeee, yodelayee, yodelaaayyy Yiiidoooooo.
F**k, that’s worth the transfer fee alone.
or seeing as your on the rioja, sing of the thongs he will inspire.
Thongs certainly inspire me
Thongs ain’t what they used to be
Thongs for the memories…
