And good afternoon.
I don’t know if this is going to be a plea, or ‘a right telling off my friend,’ to quote Don Logan. But this window has spawned some absolute ‘ITK’ chancers. And that’s coming from me!
I like ITK, the very notion of it is completely appealing. Against a backdrop of indifferent official websites; something overheard in a curry house, a nod and wink to some bod who drops off the laundry or the loose chat of a junior player to a mate it’s all quite irressistable.
The very nature of ITK of course means it won’t all pan out. Why not? Because it involves humans. Humans have contributed many things to this planet, but amongst the first things after carbon monoxide and funny coloured poo probably has to come human error.
That and people change their minds. I’ve a magnificent dinner lined up tonight. But I might suddenly, on whim go bonkers and decide to get a takeaway. People change their minds. Anyone heard of a little thing called, ‘divorce’?
So peace be upon me that I don’t have the ache when ITK fails to come to fruition. What does get my goat are the freeloaders and attention seekers. By freeloaders I specifically mean the despicable parasites that quite stealthily hitch their made up pony to the ITK star.
‘Robbie Keane is weighing is up his options,’ ‘Bentley is of interest to two or three clubs but nothing concrete in place as yet.’ ‘The relationship between Harry & Levy is tense. Harry wants to buy but Levy is saying we have to sell first.’ ‘The player wants to come, is happy with the wages offered but his club are making crazy demands.’
This sort of guff might just might possibly be ITK, but it’s so bloody ambiguous it’s not worth repeating in any form to anyone.
If my phone rang now and it was Daniel Levy himself saying, ‘Harry, you might tell your readers that we are striving day and night to solve our striker problem.’ My response would be short, ‘You tell ’em.’ That isn’t information worth sharing.
Then we have the attention seeking children. There is no excuse that stands up to scrutiny by an adult that condones a supposed ITK passing on their tale in cryptic form. None whatsoever. ‘If I speak directly, I may inadvertently reveal my source!’
No. Here’s a tip my old son – Keep your mouth shut. And then your source is golden.What possible protection is a source offered by building in a delay mechanism? You are lying.
Talking in tongues is patronising …but moreover it’s dishonest. Anyone remember 321 with Ted Rogers?
‘You need me to put out the trash, I’m gray and dirty. If you want a big prize, get rid of me early.’
The stooge couple dump this ‘prize’ faster than Ted can order a litre of hair dye and a crate of Ellenet.
“You need me’. It was actually spelled ‘knead’ so what do you knead? That’s right, dough. ‘I’m gray and dirty’ was rhyming slang for thirty. That’s right, if you won £30,000 pounds on a game show you’d go on a spending spree straight away and you’ve just rejected £30,000 in crisp unused notes!”
So we get every imaginable piece of junk from these clowns. Phil Collins lyrics, numerolgy, the names of kids TV shows. It’s all cobblers and if they do score they deserve zero credit. Adults don’t communicate like this. Do you go into the cinema and when you ask the bloke what’s on tonight expect to get, ‘My first is in Inception, but not in Die Hard 2, my second is…’ an adult in real life would be hospitalized for behaving like this.
So a right telling off it was.
BIOYC!
Blue and Yellow.
Blue is the colour of my toilet duck = Pato
Yellow is colour of piss. Old people piss themselves = David Beckham
Blue as in Jeyes Bloo. Jose Antonio Reyes.
Yellow as in Mellow Yellow. Felipe Melo. Though he’s now signed for Galatasaray.
Sometimes they know stuff that the press havent published.
For example that Pedroza geezer we was suppose to be signing, a few ITK’s said he was sent back to Mexico coz of problems with his medical, he hasnt signed and that seems to be why.
The whole “a storms a brewing” and “we will announce a striker signing very soon” posts are a joke and the people should be removed from spurs community
The worst thing is I believe it, when they posted “we are signing 1/2 strikers by Friday” I went and told all my arrogant Liverpool and Man Utd mates, only to be made to look like a fool.
I have never seen a window of soo many disappointed spurs fans though to be fair, the need for a striker is a huge dissapointment, we all know as loyal fans we will get 10 chances against Everton and if Crouch or Defoe play we wont score any.
We need a striker for Everton, Man Utd and Man City a bad start and our season could be over before its begun
Half a striker is no good though surely. Must have been a serious medical problem.
top half? bottom half? side half?
if it’s the last, he’d be okay in profile.
Why should we worry about those with Itchy Tiny Knobs?
Isn’t that called Gerrard’s disease? ;)
I thought it stood for I Touch Kids. Sorry, that was just you Sid.
he’s not a pedofile…he’s just eccentric…
How do we know whether to believe you HH? You might just be trying to put us off the scent and protect your source :whistle:
By the way, in other news, Sooty has hospitalised Paul Daniels. Now that has cheered me up :)
I like it. Not alot. But i like it…
No mention of his glamourous assistant so I’ll wait until I see her holding her skirt up on the Official Site, if that’s ok :-p
You mean Sweep or Sue?
Think he was talking about McGhee, Debbie that is – not Mark. I dont think any of us would like to see Mark McGhee holding up a skirt on the official site. Then again Debbie wouldnt be much better either…
“So Debbie, what first attracted you to the millionaire Paul Daniels?”
Mrs Merton, comedy genius.
Paul Daniels – Small, looks like a rat, known for being a magician. Now who’s that remind me of…? cant put my finger on it, I just know I’d also like that wand stuck where the sun don’t shine thus causing a great deal of pain. Hm.
I have it on good authority from a very reliable ‘ITK’ source, that Levy is close to signing Quagmire to lead the line next season as the boy scores everywhere he goes!! You heard it here first. Giggidy.
id rather we signed Stewie
the boys a genius and slightly better looking than some of our players!
He just lacks presence and there’s always the danger somethin could distract him at a vital moment.
