My increasing intolerance towards just about everything spilled out earlier this week when I harrumphed at Mde de Hotspur, ‘I really don’t like doing things I don’t like doing.’
Our tight lipped, ruddy faced supremo hasn’t been in the news much of late. So almost to compensate for this we got a tour de force from Arry in the last ever edition of the News Of The Screws. I’ve spoiled it now, but try reading the interview imaging that Modders is the one providing the quotes.
“It’s a great job. You would have to be a fool not to do a good job at Chelsea, with those players.”
“You walk into the dressing room and look around and see great players, leaders like John Terry, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba.
“It would be hard to fail – they will be bang there when the trophies are handed out.”
Arry needs to be whisked in for one of those special, one to one’s that Levy so generously gave Modders. So he understands our position. I’m a realist. I’ve said it before the Tottingham faithful are a tough crowd. Possibly one of the worst. I’ve been at The Lane when we were so unhappy we couldn’t even be bothered to boo. But Arry needs to stop staring at what the person on the table next to him is eating – as he pushes his own food ruefully about his plate – and try acting like a flippin’ grown up.
Arry’s stock as a man motivator is in free fall. West Am & Pompey pal, Defoe has been a complete and utter flop. Nobody’s interested in how fab Fat Fwank is looking.
We have arguably one of our own best players in a generation feeling a tad deflated after a failed escape bid and what does the manager do? Join him in a Cheatski love in. How good life and freedom would taste on the other side of the wire. Nobody made either of them sign for us. No claims of duress have been made to the best of my knowledge.
I’m not a religious person – although I do talk to God everyday in my way – and I know for a fact; he’s told me he hates whiners. Whiners will not be inheriting the earth.
Now ex-News Of The Screws journo Neil Ashton has spent the last good few days whining. Whining that his employer has binned him. Ashton is one of several hundred people at the NOTS who was riding on the coat tails of salacious front page headlines.
Oh, I’m sorry. Am I treading on Nelly Welly’s sensibilities there? Overlooking his stellar contribution to football journalism? How terribly remiss of me. Can someone please get it touch with Brian Glanville and Hunter Davies and tell them they never existed. Thank you so much.
I’d put money on your average punter never having heard of Ashton and the bulk of the other hacks before the advent of Twitter. Given exclusive access to clubs, players and never ending supply of complimentary tea and biscuits these guys manage to churn out stuff a semi literate 12 year old could provide.
Ashton tell us he’s ‘frustrated, hurt and angry.’ I bet you are mush. Someone swiping a free drink from your hand is just as galling as having one you paid for taken.
You were working for a morally bankrupt organization that was breaking the law relentlessly in order to sell newspapers. And now you’re facing the bleak prospect of having to get a job based on your own work opposed to coining it off the back of a household name.
So the lesson of the day is that there really is little quite as dull as other people’s woes. You’re not happy, look at why and change what you’re doing. Whining about it is not only boring; it’s utterly pointless.
‘I really don’t like doing things I don’t like doing’. I said.
She replied, ‘Bless you love, have you only just noticed?”
Has anyone just considered paying off our rubbish? jenarse , PSB, Hooton, if we get them all and others in a room and pretend they have won a small euromillions sweep 1Million euros each :winke: then the wage bill drops people think “i i” they dont muck about we get a few top dollars in and pay them with monies saved
simples in it
…mind you, I looked over my neighbours fence this morning…..and the grass definitely looked greener…..!
On a separate note, if Modders goes, I have one Croatian shirt, number 14, framed, signed by LM with me present in the Spurs megastore! Any takes…..?!
Chamois
I might ceremoniously burn it, douse the flames with Wengers piss and post it on YouTube!!
I’m getting really pissed of with the whole lot of them – spoilt,overpaid numbskulls. What is the fuckin point of this ‘team game’ called football when your own manager talks evrybody else up and his own team’s chances of success down? The players sign a deal one minute then want to fuck off the next – not just Modric – look at the other Prem stars ! And we’ve been sucked into paying to watch the biggest marketing success story of the past 20 years.
Arry likes talking to the press and being interviewed on the Radio and TV and the media love him as he’s always good for a quote. But his comments cannot be taken at face value as he is far smarter at using the media than most might think.
When he says we’ll struggle to reach the top four next term, he’s not trying to face reality or being negative, he’s sending a message to DL that we need to buy to keep up and he’s sending that message to us as well, which in turn puts more pressure on the board to spend. He’s like a politician campaigning for votes or in his case spending power.
When he banged on relentlessly about 2 points from 8 games he might have been blowing his own trumpet but he was also telling the team how much they had improved and telling the opposition we were no longer pushovers.
We need an Arry translation app to fully understand the geeze
Stop sniffing his tail end. Like i said before do you really think Levy needs harry telling him whats needed? Levys the one who wants us to become a regular top 4 team hes the one putting his foot down.
And what’s with Crabber Wilkins spewing forth wind-ups-“Spurs’ll find it difficult to hang on to Modric now”the stunted little toss-pot!
Was he there at the pre-season tap-up of LM and the Cheat$ki employee who made the derisory 22 mill pound bid!?Even tho he no work there anymore!?mmmmm
otherbit you are missing, with respect, is his management of expectations so that the england selectors dont suddenly get the wobbles when we finish 6th, even tho a half decent coach with a belief that he could instil in players and a desire to win that goes beyond what comfortable arry can muster would have had us third. season past proves the point, in spades. it is apparently as good as it gets for us, and we are all idiots for calling radio shows even tho this tosser is never off the air
