Good evening.
836,357 people have assured me this evening that I need to lose weight and brush up my social skills a bid has been accepted for long term Chicken Badge allergy sufferer Luka Modric.
If this is the case then goodbye and good riddance. Ooh …’nasty Harry’ I hear you say. Well, not really. My bitter sentiments don’t get borne out of boredom. Chancers like Luka and Dimitar could have stayed where they where and been an integral part of something good. Something worthwhile.
But when we are dealing with these type of half men …who spiritually come from a place so low that even the rats are hunchbacked …what can one expect?
Will a deal on Modders include a Noel Edmond’s Saturday Swap Shop stylee player plus cash deal? I sincerely doubt it.Will this spark a flurry of Tottingham shaped transfer activity? I sincerely doubt it. But Levy & Co are 100% working overtime…
From London24.com article:
“Ask Levy if he would be happy to drop five points in order to secure or save an extra £5m from the Modric and Adebayor deals and he may well say yes.”
Says it all really.
It could be 20 points.Who knows.
I havent seen anything that would say that we are capable of reaching last years position.The truth is we dont have any idea.
We were not great last year.We did have a great benefit in the fact that Chelsea,the arse and Liverpool were worse than us most of the season.
This season Chelsea has to be considered a strong bet for 2nd or 3rd.
We wont have it easy. We dont have enough quality players yet and the system takes time if it indeed will work (Im not big on relying on the offside trap to win games)
Another two quality players would spring us forward.
The five million saved would mean nothing in the overall scheme of things.
That’s just a stupid comment/assumption in a vain attempt to wind up Spurs supporters, most of us saw through it but you fell hook line and sinker and compounded it by repetition.
He cost us more than 5 points last season by forfeiting the first two games to haggle for another week for parker/ade, and then some more with his cheapskate january transfer dealings.
I think its a reasonable assumption Levy would jump at this.
what did VDV cost????? and how much money did it make for us?
City and United finished Champions and Runners Up and you blame Levy for those defeats, no talk of the dressing room hangover from Modric’s scenario or Harry’s failure to motivate, what age are you, 7, 8 or 9.
Ill be nearly 12 in November.
We lost to a last minute goal to City at their ground – no reason to believe we couldnt have got a point against them at home. Conceding defeat to teams because they finished 2 places higher than us is a defeatist attitude.
What do you gain from banging the Levy drum exactly?
What do you hope to gain by constantly slagging him off, he is our Chairman, have a little faith and get behind the Club in it’s endeavours and stop panicking the window has 15 days and 10 hours left.
Three, two, one… You’re back in the room.

Im going for lie down.
Maybe this is Jenas “Breakout” year. :sideways:
Maybe, the’ve been using Jenas behind closed doors as our new striker, and he’s really, really, really good.
Maybe, they’ll only let Modric go if they take Jenas with him, that’s why its took 3 months to sort out. :-p
:lol: Maybe Levy offered Modric for free if Real took Jenas off our hands,but Real wanted to pay £25 mil instead, hence the stalemate!
funny story about ***** I heard last year, a friend of mine has a son who got let go by chelsea after a foot injury but they agreed to pay for specialist treatment @ harley street
he goes for treatment and whose sitting in reception – a certain Mr *****, apparently he was playing with a broken bone in his foot for 6 weeks and no one noticed, it shows how many tackles he makes when he plays
That shows total dedication to the cause, a true professional, roll on the Barcodes. Number 14, Jenas.
don’t really see how we can be that critical of a player wanting to leave to treble his wages and win major tournaments for just about the biggest club in the world.
Whilst we are where we are as the 4th/5th best team in England and with a sensible wage structure based on gate receipts roughly half of our competitors, this cycle of our best player leaving for more money/better chance of trophies will continue.
The only hope to break it before the new stadium is that
1) a few young players emerge & develop very quickly
2) The manager has sufficient charisma/coaching skills that top players will sacrifice the $$ they could get elsewhere.
3) We achieve Champs League for one season, invest most of the extra millions of TV money in increasing wage budget and gamble that we keep getting in Champs League so we can afford to maintain that wage increase (which is why it was such a damn shame that Chelski won that Champs League final).
Lets lay off Modric… whoever we end up getting to replace him will end up getting booed in 3 years if/when we find ourselves in exactly the same situation
