Good afternoon.
So today’s the day that a new breed of dastardly, ghostly and stealthy itks turn up to casually say, ‘As I told you on Monday, Jan Vertonghen has signed!.’ The response to this is …eh? Who is this guy? I didn’t even I know I was following/you were on this forum?!
Has he signed? Who the hell knows. All that is certain is that the collective groan from Spurs fans nearing exhaustion will be audible globally if the player makes another, ‘I dunno what’s happening interview.’
Roger ‘Daily Mail’ Morgan of Spurs Odious says that we’re asking £4.5M for Peanut. I don’t have any ethics and I sold my last moral for 50p to a blind beggar, but even I don’t think that this whole deal was right.
Peanut didn’t want to play for us, we didn’t have a spot for him and the only people that would be remotely interested in having him other than us were the mob that we bought him from. I hear the financial advisers among you telling me that this was a, ‘neat bit of business from Levy & Co.,’ but I just don’t buy it.
If our previous manager is ever pulled up for anything more than a faulty brake light or a jammed electric window my money’s on this being looked at.
Zeki Fryers is another name in the frame.
He sounds like he’s either a Greek fish & chip shop or this week’s new Joe Satriani. Either way, anyone that has ‘infuriated’ Slur Alex and bailed on the Red Devil machine is good by me. The fee has apparently gone to an independent tribunal. Providing competition for Benny can only a positive thing.
Modric? Every day or two some bright spark ‘announces’ that Real Madrid have in somehow enhanced their offer. Cash. Cash plus player. An upped cash deal. The truth of the matter – or so I am led to believe – is that an offer came in some time back for the boy with the chicken badge allergy – and due to various factors not to mention the SOB is still under contract, we have yet to let them know.
As you were.
Arther Rowe-Llup,wasone of the first managers to encourage players to roll cigarettes with their feet.
This created incredible footwork and concentration unfortunately Passive Dribbling led to an eradication of individual dribbling skills. We all dribble or no-one dribbles.
Shame.
I couldn’t fathom as to why Rowe’s name was never mentioned in the same vane as Billy Nick’s or KB’s, even Venables seemed to get more plaudits yet Rowe truly was a Tottenham man and legend.
Foor fuckshake..
Quote from our lovely ex -DoF Frank Arnesen now at Hamburg.
“I don’t want to talk about it too much because Van der Vaart has a contract at Tottenham Hotspur until 2015.
“If I get a signal from his end that there might be something, things will be different”.
The Dutch – they really know how to communicate!
Interesting deviation from the norm, ‘I can’t talk about players under contract, but my phone number is 0123 456789, tell him to call me.’
‘As from this week I’d like to point out I no like Chicken burgers and must have only Hamburgers from now on’-cough-cough!
redknapp’s got to go….
Yeah, and take his minder and chauffeur with him!
The Mail had a new spin on a non story yesterday, during the week there was a Dumb & Dumber rumour of ‘What are the odds of Jermain Defoe going to QPR, like one in a million? So you’re telling me there’s a chance.’ This was the story of a player who doesn’t want to leave and someone decided to nominate a club for him not to want to join.
The Mail’s take was that AVB has told JD he cannot leave to join the club of his non-choice and is forcing him to stay and play for his place. The Mail were being a bit selective though, as this was just the tip of the iceberg. I’m led to believe AVB had some words of wisdom for a couple of other players in the same boat.
AVB: “If that Wayne Rooney comes to me and says ‘I want to leave Manchester United for West London football.’ I’d say to him ‘Look, Wayne, you may be a nailed on England International, with a slightly expanding waistline and hairline, but if you want to leave the Theatre of Dreams for the bright lights of Sheppards Bush, I’d say ‘Oi! Rooney! … No!’
And if that Lionel Messi came to me and said ‘I quite fancy plying my trade at Loftus Road.’ I’d say to him ‘Listen, Lionel, you may be the best player in the world, with your bucket load of exquisite goals, but if you want to swap the Camp Nou for a footballer’s life at Queens Park Rangers, I’d say ‘Oi! Messi!…No!”
It’s amazing just how many players are being blocked from moving to QPR by AVB.
Just a bit bored I guess…
A bit, I’ve been trying to think of biscuit based footballers…hang on-Garry B that’s almost a…damned I almost had it for a moment! ;-)
A chap with no hair.

I resemble that remark. :-)
