Evenin' all. A mixed blessing is what I have.
In conjunction with with a fair few others, a very decent chap, with a pretty splendid track record has stepped up to me and said that Pointy Shouty is doing the off. Word is that both parties within The Lane have pretty much vexated each other, not to mention the allure of the Irish Connection at Soondoorland.
If true, I'm hurt to be honest. This is second time around that the stupid little knacker has fled from our embrace. I never adored Keane. that much is true, but after this...
If anyone needs me, my agent & I can be may found whistfully bouncing pennies off a waitress's bottom in Lexington Street. Every cloud and all that...

Thank you Mr Hotspur, I am delighted to see the back of the pikey
Does this mean Harry has someone lined up? Is Crouch coming back. Is there an agreement that we get Jones (not sure if he is the right guy though). Keane was really signed because Defoe got injured and he was the insurance. Not sure if Harry would have signed him otherwise. Maybe Bellamy will join Spurs since not sure where he will play at Man City? Yuck
What your same reliable source that said Bentley was having a medical...? lol... Think his name was big yid... Told you his wife worked at the hospital and you called it as a big exclusive...
bitter and sweet, but more sweet, after he left us he lost my respect, hes lucky we bailed him out. good luck to him i guess
thank f@ck if this iz true H, bring on the Madrid rejects! lol
Awww...not again. i've reared my son to be a staunch yid. the lad was 5 last summer and didn't really understand why his hero had naffed off to doleyville. now, i have to explain it all to him again? to sunlun? nuts!!
Keane has a black soul, seeing him play for us towards the back end of the season was like seeing Ruel Fox back in lillywhite. Ace of Spades, the pair of 'em.
let him go, but for cripes sake, give pav and defoe a chance...i surely can't be the only one who thought JD and the drunken russian were kinda falling for each other before Defoe knacked his leg in.
Wouldnt be overly disappointed at all.
Has been pretty useless since his return, is a big selection problem if remains as captain, and I dare say that the sly fox of Mr. Levy will manage to steal a princely sum, which can be better spent on someone who isnt an Irish Scous traitor, who's long past his best
Will we be resigning Bentley, Huddlestone, Jenas, Zokora and Bent in January?
I liked Keane, but could never see the point in re-signing him once we bought back Defoe, who I recon will score a hatful this season. Any thoughts on Martins as an option? Be fairly cheap I'd have thought....
I don't understand? Keane comes back as Arry wants him, gives him the captains armband too and now he's off?
If true and I'm not doubting you HH but it doesn't make any...
i will estatic if hes off i was delighted to see the back of him once and livid to see him return and he pretty much summed up why with his lacklustre displays GOOD RIDDANCE don not return again
..sense...
IF this does happen...then, y'know, fucking nice one 'Arry Redknapp. i mean, it could be seen as an unpopular decision, and isnt that what we want? a crook of a manager who has the balls to sell his captain despite the potential wrath and upset of some fans as long as it's for the good of the team. which it is. we have Modric. And Defoe. And Pavlyuchenko. And isn't it rumoured, soap opera style, that there is some unrest in the squad caused by PSB?
Best news I heard in a while, him & JD can't play together so one had to go - the right one IMO.
Nearly fell of my perch laughing earlier when didier zokora's agent was bigging him up for a move to sunderland @ 10 million. If levy pulls that one off Steve Bruce is due a visit to a nut house. She says he has improved since he signed for us. I must have missed that.
The pigeons in brum will be relieved.
Would have liked him to stay and prove the doubters wrong, but I guess he doesn't have the fortitude for that.
I certainly won't be gutted if this is true. This is nothing like the sucker punch of him buggering off to Pool. It was uncomfortable for everyone bringing him back at all. In the back of my head I was waiting for him to be gone again. Probably best for all concerned.
Now, let's get the Hunter!
Sorry, who are we selling?
Keane?!
He hasn't come back from Liverpool yet.

Dont be a bit surprised
We're becoming the Hokey-Cokey Club...in, out, in, out...
BUT...'arry showed intent by signing Sgt. Wilson, and if he builds our front line around Super-Luka, Nuts Are We and JD, we're gonna be aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllright
THATS RUBBISH HARRY! FROM THE HORSES MOUTH, KEANE IS STAYING! HE IS A GREAT PLAYER, AND WILL COME BACK WAY STRONGER IN THE COMING SEASON! HE MADE A MISTAKE GOING TO THE SLUMS AND HE IS FIRST TO ADMIT IT!
Nah Harry, much I respect your sources this own't happen ... mores the pity
I agree with the Diamond fellah that Defoe and Pav are a great partnership in the making - even though neither speaks English.
Mind you they don't need to talk, they could flash their bling at each other, reflect it of thuds manboobs and know what runs they are going to make.
If true about PSB, a surprise, and not that disappointing
fuck that yea true keane was shit but fuckin hell for six years he been a pro for us an yea was a wanker for goin but anyone would go to play for one of the best teams i would love him to stay. i been spurs fan 28 years i love the club so give keane a chances an who is sayin lets get bellamy your off your head he is fuckin shit i would not pay 1p for that load of shit hes had more clubs then wenger has had cocks up his ass

Pavlyuchenko is as blue collar as a 6 pack of bruce springsteen. He drives a truck and gets pissed at every oppotunity...and they say football is in danger of losing touch with the common man...nyet! pah! not in russia it aint...keep the pav

Thanks for shouting. You have changed my mind through the medium of volume.
u lot got to be jokin, keane hasn't scored many goals but he leads the team and thats why the club had such a great turnaround. he saved us against sunderland and he will get better, lets not forget he left his boyhood club so his integrity was a bit shattered aswell as his confidence. there is no need to give him a chance, hes done a hell of a lot for tottenham and selling him would be riddiculous.fair enough there are better strikers but hes still good and with him u are not just buying his incredible talent but also his leadership.
Reply to nat:
Not joking, merely passing on in good faith old stick.
This will be the best move of the season no matter who we sign. PSB clogs the middle way too much and holds players like Jenas and Modric back. Our best asset as far as attack goes is to be agressive and go forward.
JD and Pav deserve a bit of time together. Bent is very capable as a third and maybe promote Taraabt as a wild card off the bench. This will free up any money we need to address the left side problem. Cole, Young or another hidden Arry gem.

Reply to jamiespurs1:
Whatever PSB had was certainly on the wane before he dropped us in it and jumped in out of his depth at Anfield and when he came back he was even worse.
It was desperation stakes when Defoe got injured otherwise we would never have seen him back. It was probably right to resign him, given our perilous position, just like it is right to send him on his way now. I won't miss him.
Reply to jamiespurs1:
I am staggered. I and I quote, called it too early'. Well if you recall I apologised to ponces like you for the info being too good.
And you moaned about that too.
What I told you happened and yet you still run at me like like you have a point. Am I riled? No, love. Bewildered is better.
Tell me little doggy, when you bark and chase the cars, what is your plan should one ever slow down?
Best bloody news we could have had, we should bite Sunderland's hand off when they come offering the money - GBP15m, you say? It's as if Roy Keane never left, with the stupid money they are rumoured to be offering. 6m for Zokora, 10m for Bent and they can also have Jenas for 8m and Bentley for 10m, that would be their summer kitty and could get us started. KEEP HUDDLESTONE THOUGH and play him at center back when King is out, sell Dawson if we need the cash. Buy Huntelaar and play him with Pavlyuchenko with JD as back-up, keep Taarabt, buy Diego Capel or Arjen Robben, buy Gabriel Heinze, get rid of Assou-Ekotto, play Palacios and Modric in the center, buy Van der Vaart as well (sometimes play 5 in midfield or rotate 3 among Modric, Robben, Van der Vaart and Lennon in midfield) we'll have a bloody nice team next year.
They haven't changed the bins in Tottenham have they? Is that why he is going?
WE LOVE YOU HARRRRRRRRRRRY
and if its quite alright
keep up the fine work Hotspur
and whether its true or not (and im split down the middle on this one, I think) at least you give us something to discuss.
We'll probably spend the money we get from him on a new right back
Aside from peoples appreciation of Keane at the moment, the situation (if it unfolds) is quite bizarre. Why would Harry do this? , why would Keane do this? was it the deal all along?

Really?
Shame.
I always liked Keane more than Defoe.
Worked harder, shoulders didn't drop when he missed chances. Scored all types of goals. Popular with the fans and players. Good player.
You lot seem to have such short memories. This guy was a legend this time last year. Perhaps our best player too. One iffy season and you all write him off.
Shame on you all.
P.S. Form is temporary but classy, thats forever... or words to that effect.
New Instructions: Change the P to C and replace SB with UNT.
He has not been an asset since he came back from his search for his boyhood dream and got robbed out of house and home. If this is true, he can f*ck off for good. I don't care what Quinn pays, Levy should take it.
The bloody cheek.
Got one...! You do make me laugh... You called the wrong hospital, way way too early and fed off the tabloids... You clutched at straws and pulled out a scarecrow my friend... You were so wrong, on so many levels, it just wasn't funny... You are wrong again.. Does my message sound better when I sign off with a harry hotspurism...?

Reply to steve1987:
This was a panic buy from Harry when (a) we were in deep trouble in the relegation zone; (b) other players had turned us down; and (c) Defoe was injured. Despite Harry saying that Keane and Defoe can play with each other, that was just public bravado, Keane was always purchased out of desperation because he was worth the outlay simply to save us from relegation. At the end of the day, I'm not sure we needed him but you can't fault Harry's logic at the time. It'd be SUPERB if we could now get rid of him and recoup our money, JD is a better player and is younger, we can then invest the money in a better player and maybe finally replace bloody Berbatov. Huntelaar is a different type of player but he's world-class and we may just get him if Levy gets his finger out and relaxes the wage structure a little bit.
Our big target could be Van der Vaart - he's worth much more than the 8m or so that Real Madrid paid for him - they only got this price because he had a clause in his contract that said he could leave for something ridiculous (2m, I think) a year later. Now that they want to flog him, they mostly want to recoup their money and do not seem to insist on his market value - this is an opportunity to get one of the best creative midfielders in Europe (and, yes, I rate him higher than even Modric) at a very decent price. Hope we move quick and pay well

What magnificent word play, tell me true, Stephen Fry, is that you?
firstly - is it 100% confirmed that levy went to madrid??? no media bullshit with old photos??
i have to say if, other clubs were after some of the madrid lot we would have heard a lot more.
you don't just turn up at the door - surely something was agreed before levy turned up.
i think next week is the BIG week for spurs with more than satisfactory signings......
fingers crossed.
a bit worried about the new chief scout news (not saying he's rubbish or anything like that but what about the previous set up? maybe he will give us more leads. then you put the fact we're not having a reserve team next year???
sorry, rubbish post.... keane would only go if his position is under threat
i just dont believe this at all - and wont until i see him with a sunderland scarf above held above his head (thats not an invitation for any photoshop entries). In 6 months he wont be brought back as captain, the forced out the door. FFS Redknapp is afraid to drop him never mind strip him of captaincy or sell him. I just cant believe this at the minute............
I also cant believe we havent signed anyone yet........ or that I have a bottle of wine in me already at this time on s Tuesday evening

Reply to steve1987:
I must point out I don't make rude or suggestive type jokes when my children are present.
I've finsihed an Italian Merlot - and it was white. Never before have I had the pleasure of drinking a white Merlot, but it was pretty good.
Second bottle open, though this one is to be shared with 'her' who is now home from work. An Australian Chardonnay. Up until 3 weeks ago I was a sworn red wine drinker only, but you know something, this white stuff is alright too. Refreshing on a sunny afternoon like today.
So HH, in your personal opinion do you believe PSB is off?
Harry - When you say 'both parties within The Lane' you mean Keane and the club, oe Keane and Redknapp? Do you have any inkling what the source of the tension is?
In terms of our public image, our transfer policy - such as it is/was - would look pretty clownish. I sense of general loss of interest in us from the media, though, as there are plenty of other expensive comings and goings elsewhere to focus on. If Keane really should move on, maybe we can display the shirt he'll leave behind without too many creases.

Good question mate. Unsure. There are definitely issues. Huge issues. I wanted him to stay and fight as I said recently. My gut feeling is that Arry hates the fact he's stalled upon his return, but would now actually relish the money if he were to go.
Own up who's drinking Thunderbird.
absolutely guarantee this is a load of old tosh. harry wouldnt make him captain, never sub him and then sell him after 6 months.
Listen you you lot, taking it as read, pathetic, bet you still cheer when he scores next, no wonder other clubs hate us.. now who reckons we'll be top 4 next year ??? idiots.

THERE YOU BLOODY WELL GO AGAIN MR HOTSPUR
This time you've gone too far. You ran the Keane story on 19th June just to stop another website (The Proud Cockerel) putting the story out first and now you have THE AUDACITY YES THE AUDACITY to put it out now so as to pretend you have copied it from The Proud Cockerel when in fact you have nicked it from your own blog.
How low can you get ?
Reply to HarryHotspur:
I always had you down as a little bit mischievous and a bit enigmatic as a self-styled "in-the-know" Harry, and verbose to the point of near-incomprehensibility, but nonetheless your blog is decent enough and you seemed to be generally close to spot-on with a lot of your predictions...
...but this one is bollocks. Who is your ITK this time? Why are you bigging yourself so much over last year's Bentley transfer, so proudly proclaiming yourself as Billy Big Balls because you "broke" a story the tabloids, interweb blogs, word of mouth and every man and his dog already knew?
He won't sell Keane because he rates him so highly he bought him for ÂŁ15m and stripped King Ledley's captaincy. He doesn't sub him or drop him and other than the odd foray to left wing in a midfield 5 in tight games, he lets him do as he pleases.
I think you're letting the relative success of your self-proclaimed "in the know" blog (inexplicably linked on NewsNow) get a little bit up your own 'arris, 'Arry.

Isn't that why we come on here? To swap info and ideas about Spurs? Harry seems to be in a position where people tell him things. If Harry passes something on that doesn't come about, I don't get mad.
You know why?
BECAUSE I WASN'T PROMISED ANYTHING!

I suppose if any of us still 'want our Spurs back' we'd better move to Sunderland and start supporting them.
Then again, no need to move there, really. Living in Buckinghamshire never stopped anyone from supporting Manure.

All this talk of HH nicking ITK stuff from other sites is a bit boring. I do, however, admit that it's environmentally friendly, because it's an exercise in recycling accusations made over and over again.
If HH does nick stuff, then it wouldn't make him a bad person. It would make him a kind of latter-day Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.
Of mild concern is that Robin Hood dressed in tights and a green feathered cap.

Full marks for responding but I do find all this sniping at Harry over rumours a little tedious. The media nick stuff from each other all the time and most of us don't have time to go on loads of other sites searching for rumours so he's doing us a favour.
The other point is that just because he reports a story after someone else does not mean he's lifted it.
Harry is very generous in publicising other sites and we are all Spurs supporters aren't we ?
Defoe is shit we should be selling him not PSB
Anything 'new world' is shit in my opinion.

As for Keane, who cares?
Reply to onedavemackay:
Sobriety can be dull. My alcohol deficiency is eroding the romantic in me. When are we going to get a few signings?
What confuses me is the reputation 'arry has for 'wheeling and dealing'. At what point does he start to wheel and deal when, presumably Levy and his associates perform negotiations? Does His Nibs just identify the players he wants and submit them to Levy in a prioritised list? Not much room for wheeling and dealing if he's not directly involved in the bargaining.
I saw an article the other day with reference to 'arry's column in The Currant Bun, quoting him as content pottering in the garden and feeding the birds during the closed season, and barely missing football. I couldn't find the original column. The image presented is that, till pre-season training starts, 'arry's work is done, and now it's all down to the corporate arm to get players out and in. This seems unlikely, as Redknapp would been keenly interested in any progress. But in what part in the process is that fabled wheeling and dealing employed?
Meantime, stop hogging the port.

I thought so, the b*stard - kill him.
As people have observed, Defoe is a hungrier striker than Keane, not least because he a lot of Spurs bench-time to make up from the Jol period. Funds probably need to be raised, anyway.
I lean toward something someone (I think it was ODM) said a while back, and hope that we buy unheard of rough diamonds that Redknapp cuts and polishes. Given our record in putting careers into reverse, at least we wouldn't be burdened with another reputation to be lived up to. It also might represent a more practical and realistic approach to our squad requirements.

hundredstone update.
I have found something called the Football transfer league (FTL ?) and as hundredstone claimed they had a Keano off (to Sunderland) rumour on June 13. However, as this was attributed to the Mirror it hardly substantiates Sir Harold "ripping off" other blogs.
As I said previously I predicted this before June 13 on this very blog so the Mirror and everyone else has lifted it from me
And now........................... back to my Port.

Reply to SUPERKEANE:
Spurs fans not followers of Liverpool
Czech beer just makes you fart.
Fact.
I just stole today's date from the Roman Calender. Sssshshhhhhhhhhh.
I wonder if this is a report on the possibility of him leaving or a campaign to get him to go!
PSB is and always has been an enigma. A goalscorer who has good stats tho' needs twice the number of chances but who's work rate has always allowed him to make those. But he's a major problem in a key respect and that is he does not fit any established and distinct role. He plays across positions as a sort of wild card that whilst when he's firing on all cylinders is a defensive nightmare, can be totally ineffective if it's not going right on the day.
So what do you do with him? He has been amazing, scoring some fantastic goals and almost single handedly winning games for us, but he may be past his peak to play the way he has been and to move on in his career, may require adopting disciplines which might dull some of the other edges he has always had.
I got the feeling that Harry was looking to groom him into a sort of Teddy S type role, but that would require two things, PSB to agree and embrace the change and an ability to substitute him for the good of the team on the day; it's widely believed he has a codicil in his contract preventing that.
I find it hard to believe that we'd have pushed as hard as we did to get him back, Harry was "noodling" in the press for a good 6 weeks before it finally happened, if we simply wanted him for a 6 month stay, to kick a few arses and maybe stick a few away. As a player he still has a lot to offer, especially in the P and S departments; neither of our illustrious cetre backs being the most vocal. We need a PSB in the team to 'kick the pig' but his role must start to change if he's to be a part of the plan.
Either way I can't see us letting him go unless we are trading up or he has fallen out with Harry in some way. Sure he has to re-earn his spurs but imagine the hell of the experience he had with the bindippers, dreams shattered, confidence bitch-slapped and all. He is a top pro and I'd be sorry to see him go.
Crikey all this talk of drinking. ODM, I feel somewhat Vauxhall Conference for my half a lager shandy in a Table Table restaurant/bar earlier. *hic*
I used to like Keane. Now I don't so much.
If he leaves, well, pah. Am a big fan of Defoe and have the old No 18 shirts to prove it. Despite the annoying offsides - sort 'im 'arry.

I think it may be a bit late/early in the day to mention this but Keane is actually an iguana and also a bottle of whine. It amuses me that we're all so news hungry that the thought of selling players is almost as exciting as buying! I have no emotional attachment to Keane, nor do I want to drive him out in an act of revenge - if his going provides us with the cash to sign someone with a different set of skills (tall striker, blah blah) that will benefit us, good news. By leaving last year when it suited him, he has placed himself in a position where the club does not really owe him any loyalty - so if it suits us, keep him and if not, wave goodbye.

I agree with what you say (except the bit about preferring Keane to Defoe - not sure about that bit).
Keane is a cracking player at his best and during his time with us his goal record is up there with the best. I couldn't give a shit if he is not setting the prem alight with dazzling displays recently just as long as my team is picking up points. The team is better for Keane being there as far as i'm concerned and at very least he should be in our squad if not the first 11.
Sure I was as pissed as the next yid at his badge kissing pledge to stay forever before fluttering his pastey eyelids at the fat Spanish waiter but I'm over it now!
Lets not forget that while playing for us he has had a callender year as the prem's top scorer at a time when the likes of Henry and Shearer were plaing in the Prem! No mean feat .........

How can you possibly know where Harry get his information from ? You are just making assumptions that suit your argument which judging from the other moaners we've had on here seems to suggest some sort of envy of Harry's success.

Amazing what can happen when there aint nothing going on. Me, I prefer hearing HH's brand of rumour and speculation as he usually wraps it up with a little wit.....something seriously lacking in many of the posters that popped up last night.
on a lightere not my favorite quote of the week so far..(Zok's agent)
"There are not many clubs Didier would leave Tottenham for but I think Sunderland are one."
*lighter note
What a load of crap. He won't be leaving us.
I think HH is pulling the piss and you are all buying it.
HH could say that Martin Jol is coming back riding a donkey and you will all beleive him.
Ivan, if you think about it......
Defoe is Harry's preference over Keane.
Harry likes to play one big man, one small man.
This means that for Keane to get a place in the team, he needs to play behind the strikers, which then means he's competing with Modric, and there's only one winner there.
This means he is bench-warming fodder......Which wont sit nicely.
Therefore...... Sell him for some reddies....
Simples.
Reply to Nick_The_Greek:
Christ. Harry, I defend your right to post provocative news stories and rumours (even if this one is mighty hard to believe) and there's no need for the sort of backlash it's got.
But for the love of god, please let's have something other than about Keane? Every time you post a story about Keane you give people like the old greeko licence to post the same obnoxious anti-keane line. I swear he's said the same thing about a million times. You don't like Keane, right, we figured that out about 432675239 blogs back.
Now come back when you've something original to say?
I've defended Keane before on here, whilst always recognising why he has pissed people off. Though I still urge us to be a bit more long-term and tolerant in our views - Christ, some of these anti-Keane rants really do look fickle. The ones that are more ambivalent (like yours, Harry) are the more intelligent ones.
Seriously, this is the last Keane type blog I'm reading. Let's have something else that doesn't give the same old tired posters an excuse to trot out the same old tired record, time and frigging time again.
Reply to HarryHotspur:
I'm with Jamiespurs1 on thisone. HH called the Bentley deal as done weeks and weeks before he actullay signed. On the face of it that sounds like a well informed and correct call BUT HH was claiming he was having his medical, which was rubbish. Therefore the basis of his Big Exclusive was flawed. At worst the Big Exclusive was a lucky guess, at best it was nothing more than putting some meat on the bones of tabloid speculation!
Like Jamiespurs1, i like HH's blog, it is the best and most humorous....generally I dislike silly season when so called ITK's play one-upmanship with each other for months and then brag about it. Such behavior reminds me of Comolli. He was "proud" of his time at WHL and cited a number of successful purchases but the fact is he threw so much money around at so many players, he was bound to get it right some time or another.

I'd like to hope this will happen, not because I dislike Keane as I don't, but with Keane comes a problem. JD is by far the better striker and needs to play. Keane and JD cannot play together which therefore means Keane doesn't have a starting place. If you think seeing Keane go crazy over a correct decision going against him on the field is bad, imagine the prospect of telling him that he isn't first choice.
Personally I think there is very little chance Keane will be leaving this transfer window and I, sadly, think he will remain unsubbable and our captain while 'Arry holds the throne.
sell psb and bring in a natural leader in tuncay for half the price. sounds levy and harry kind of business...
i guess if this is going to happen though it would be nearer the start of our business as the removal of a tumour is probably the priority in promoting good long term health. my eyes are peeled.
Keane come back because Liverpool could not make the next payment, same with Chimbonda and Defoe.

That sums the "Downing" saga up more eloquently than anything else you'll read on any blog.
Sheer brilliance.
hey everyone. apparently our new home kit is confirmed and it has no yellow! LINK
It's somewhere in that pile of kits and it says next to it "Officially confirmed." Doesn't look too bad!

Hope that's the real one. Like it miles better without the piss streaks.

I like it, but it looks like one of the earlier fakes floating around.
I guess we'll know pretty soon.
It's great to see so many fans clucking for the slightest bit of material regarding our beloved Spurs... I think we were all bracing ourselves for 'Arry to start wheeling and dealing at the earliest opportunity, a wink-wink here, a 'I think he's a top, top player but at the moment he belongs to x' there.
Now, is it what we all fear and the fact is that we have to sell before we can buy, meaning we have to wait for the merry-go-round to really get started before we can jump on? As it has been noted, there is a lot of selling talk and we spent some serious wedge in January (through necessity i.e Wilson, if also a little unwisely i.e PSB), ...
Or is it a case of the list of players have been identified and they are all good, in-demand, top, top players that will require plenty of ground work & flirting before we get them to the negotiating table?
I hope there is cash available for the odd splurge or two but, if not, then we will be looking at offloading players that we can still kick on for a decent fee without having major detriment to the squad we have... and I think PSB is firmly in this category, along with quite a few others.
As for the numbnuts kicking the sh|t out of HH for the post, shame on you. ITK or not, it's an entertaining site and, having trawled the web recently for anything Spurs related due to our bout of inactivity in the transfer market, I can confirm that it is way more entertaining than most of the crap out there.
Give peace a chance guys... and the chilean pinot noir that Tesco's have on offer at half price at the moment. It's triffic.
Yo
What the fuck is ITK - its been pissing me off for years!
Andrew Edmunds?
If true, it's superb news. All we need now is for someone with more money than us and just as desperate to offer the loud mouthed ginger twitcher a job and that'll make my year. Then we can get a proper Tottenham manager who likes collecting quality players rather than brown envelopes with bundles of money in!
