Good morning lynch mob members,
I trust we’ve someone one with strong rope and another with at least directions to a stout tall tree. Although it needn’t be to tall…
Via the highly esteemed COYS and sourced as being Tweeted by one Irish journo, Ken Early we have some interesting depressing ‘quotes’ from two of our brave boys after the Republic Of Debt played The Croatianists.
Here’s the audio: http://audioboo.fm/boos/436439-modric-ireland-mixed-zone-august-9
IRL mixed zone reporter: “Can you stay sharp if you don’t get game time for Spurs?”
Robbie Keane: “How’d you know I won’t?” *awkward silence*
Modric on Chelsea move: “Idon’t want to talk about it. I said a lot of things before and things are still the same… still waiting.”
reporter: “Will you be happy if you’re still a Spurs player on September 1?” Modric: *grinning* “See you.”
On PSB there’s little to say, little in fact worth saying. He’s like that character in The Full Monty who was made redundant 6 weeks ago but still kisses his wife goodbye in the morning before frittering away his day between libraries and sitting in the park.
On Modric there can be two possible conclusions.
The first is that he has a serious Chicken Badge allergy and the second is that he has another gentleman’s agreement speech in the pipeline. This time bleating that Levy assured him of a big name or two before the window closes. A statement of intent to match his commitment for honouring his contract.
Either way, I’ve had more positive starts to a day. I think the obvious trick here would be for Modric to make a statement that he’s committed to the our money the cause for at least another season.
Monkeyballs
If he goes it shouldn’t be to a prem club.
Still don’t see levy budging – his position will be untenable after catagorically stating “we won’t sell any of our stars”
A businessman making millions for his business isn’t really an ‘untenable’ position, especially as the player concerned has publicly stated he wants out.
Benzema and Diarra for Mudrat I could live with…
Ooo when I just refreshed the page, the shouty bloke has had his head taken off the caplock button and removed from the building!
Nice cleaning HH.
I’m with Spurfect on this. All it take for everyone to piss on our player of the year is some Arse/Spam/Cheatski/Manure/Shitty fan to “quote” the guy saying bad things about Spurs and here we go again. As far as I’m concerned I’ll happily piss on him if and when he actually leaves. Till then, I want to see him do his best for the team and that’s it.
As someone who lives in the “republic of Debt” – check your own country’s bank balance ;o)
On Keane, he also said he was expecting a move away before the end of the window.
On Modric, I’d say that could be taken a few different ways – still waiting could just as easily be, still waiting to see what happens or still waiting to go or whatever.

I did live there. And have many friends still living under forced pay cuts. The UK isn’t pretty, but Eire is in the Group of Death along with Greece :-(
Tell me about it!
In the last budget, the gov introduced various new “income taxes”. The new taxes more than doubled my tax bill. Pro rata compared to the UK, we have the equivalent of 6,000,000 unemployed.
