Harrumph

Good morning.

Boy this week has dragged on – like of those interminable B movies, one of those westerns that still occasionally turn up in the schedules starring nobody you’ve ever heard of bar Ronald Reagan when he was fourteen. 

Lots of dialogue gets exchanged. Lots. The plot line is pretty straightforward. Everything starts of calmly. Then there’s an incident. This is triggers a shake up and the cast harrumph backwards and forwards, mostly on horse back (this is usually accompanied by very urgent music) until they confront evil and vanquish it a bit.

I think I’ve actually reached a state of transcendental inertia. I’m not even harrumphed out. There’s been nothing to insanely purse in days. Barring something seismic occurring the world and his wife are now saying that Villas Boas is a done deal, Sigurdsson not far behind him and Vertonghen plugging away in third place.

However, seismic may just be the word.

Maybe it’s just been a sinister ITK time killing device but the talk of the club being sold has resurfaced with gusto. Perhaps all my ranting and raving about how much money failing to reach the Champions League was accurate after all. 

Those whining on and on about patience last season don’t live in the real world. Time isn’t your friend in a results driven business and it would make perfect sense for the owners to take matters into their own hands and do something dramatic.

    So, Bale signs. Has he met AVB?

    • Eton Trifle says:

      Must have been told what is happening if he has signed

      • Gus says:

        This is it. Bale must have liked wht he heard enough to stay on board. Corluka has been sold to Lokomotiv, hopefully JJ Bentley and more of the dead wood gone soon, with new manager and new signings any day now. If Gareth likes it should be good for the fans roll on Monday COYS!!

  • Deschamps + DOF is still my bet says:

    God I hate all the smug Spurs ITK wankers with their “watch this space”, “I am always right” “I play golf/tennis/am gimp of Daniel” bullshit. Look back over the last few windows and you’ll see that they all talk a load of utter shite without exception. Oh but it was going to happen oh but it didn’t hmmm.

    Spurs community should be shut down – “my gran is in a home with DL’s great aunt and she says he hasn’t visited her for the last few weeks cos he’s trying to sell Spurs to Father Christmas.”

    “I play golf with Ian McGary and he says that Spurs will definitely have a manager in place for next season and may make a couple of signings.”

    Would Bale sign if he knew AVB was coming in?? It must be bigger and better than that please please please FFS!!!

    Capello or Van Gaal are the only available managers that will actually take us forwards – just look at their records for club teams…

    I’d rather listen to the sound of my skull being hit repeatedly by a hammer than one more second of Martin Keown. Intolerable.

    BTW… what is the new fashion of accenting the final syllables of players in the euro’s?
    Ramosssh, mirelissshhh, fabregassss, navasss…?

  • bukkake-breath says:

    just read the latest on vertonghen on sky sports seems like this percentage of transfer fee is the hammer blow.. ffs levy just give the bloke a 1m signing on fee him and kaboom would be a awesome partnership for years. as it stands JD is our only striker kaboul is our only fit centreback modric is gone we have a geriactric goalie and we have no manager.. daniel sort your team out!!

    • Jamie says:

      So hours after our most valuable asset extends his contract, you’re not even temporarily happy, and it’s all Levy’s fault?

      • bukkake-breath says:

        im chuffed to bits bales staying for at least another 6 monthes because thats all the contract means he wont get sold this window.. and as for the rest im not speculating its fact we have half a team at the moment
