Good afternoon pop pickers, Some interesting information has bubbled its way to the surface, like a fart in bathtub it catches your eye but hardly enhances your life. Real Madrid are to blame. The Spanish rotters or Los Blancos as they prefer to be called are leading our fearless crack squad of transfer negotiators a merry dance. Benzema on loan came the cry in the last window but a deal went sour after refining, refining and the timing of Higuain’s injury and so Benzema stuck with the devil he knew. This time around Benzema is still ludicrously a potential target…

Good morning choristers. I’ll tempt providence and say that there isn’t much on the cards today. That should do it. Adebayor’s name has been bandied about with increasing regularity. This may be something to do with all other transfer tales dying on their asses, or it might be something to do with us finally having thrashed out a loan deal. I guess the Adebayor Elephant song debate has been done to death but if this will be the racists last hurrah. I hope this deal happens as it will be good for us and good for football. Adebayor isn’t the…
Good morning, I am in true Cyril Fletcher style indebted to HH reader and gentleman Tweeter, @RicciAshoori who has brought to my attention a fascinating twist in the whole Arry Redschnapps & HMRC fiasco. Some of the information I can share with you is taken from a web site called http://thestory.ie/ a site with a tag line of ‘in search of transparency’. Well if this article is anything to go by they are very close to earning their Junior X-Ray Specs Badge. The information I’m unable share with you are documents that are probably still subject to a Court Order…
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…
Good morning, Being a Tottenham fan these days is like having some mad disease. You’re viewing everything at time lapse photography speed, everything that surrounds you is rattling by accelerated. But you’re in a slo mo zombied coma. You know when things bad. The world’s worst ITK, Jasper has remerged from another sojourn in Broadmoor. I don’t mind people getting things wrong, we all get things wrong, but Jasper’s pronouncements are either the diametric opposite of what will happen or stuff that appeared in this morning’s paper. Jasper Watch is now on amber. So hopefully the news that we have…
Good morning my dears, And we’ll kick off today with a quote from Willie McKay. Willie is Joey Barton’s agent of course. A little known fact about Willie is that he has a goldfish swimming in cerebral fluid in the gap where his frontal lobe used to be. I think Barton would be a useful addition dependent only upon wage demands and our ability to move along the usual suspects. Barton is undoubtedly bullish and a player with a focus if not the the most gifted bloke to ever kick a ball. So a good suitable character to throw into…
Look out ladies, The boy Hotspur’s experiencing a marble deficiency. Well actually no, merely demonstrating how some things never change. The phrase in the headline for those of you under 200 years of age was or in fact still is apocryphal corruption of a World War 1 signal illustrating just how Chinese Whispers work the message ought to have read, ‘Send reinforcements. We’re going to advance.’ Still confused? Well here’s 3MP’s 35 yard net busting golazo sensation that was widely reported by just everyone from here to Hunstanton and here it is then courtesy of our very own; highly esteemed…
Wotcha. Interesting piece of loose gossip from (overseas reader) Mrs Eileen Dover who I understand is the revered author of ‘Clifftop Tragedy’ to name all of her published titles… The name in the frame is that of attacking midfielder, Achille Emana. This guy has been in a bit of a, ‘no mans land’ for some time on the old transfer front. But we have been scouting according to Eileen and at a glance this looks like – a quality Levy & Co buy – ala Zokora were we could snap him up for what, €6M? – Passing on… BIOYC!
Guten Morgen, It gave me little pleasure to have my old oppo Arseblogger confirming that Arsenal Football Club have officially ceased trading, knocked the football lark on the head and gone into the pork belly business after yesterday’s game. Arsenal were disappointing last season. They suffered humiliation at the hands of the now relegated Brum in a Cup Final. But they still delivered their supporters Champions League football – yet again. Apparently the usually tranquil Emptycrates was finally ringing with the sound of thousands. Booing. Easy to say, ‘so what? because it’s them, but this is appears to be yet…
