    We are going to sign........................................... No one! The usual ****e!

    We signed Dempsey deadline day in August. We signed Saha and Nelsen last year. We signed VdV deadline day.

    How is signing nobody on deadline day usual?!

    Oh we had an £18 million bid for Moutinho turned down because they didn't want to sell him. We had a bid of £22 million for Daimio but we couldn't agree personal terms. We tried to hijack Willians transfer with a £35 million offer but couldn't get it through in time. Wait for the usual excuses. We will end up with nothing but out-goings and more money in the purse for Levy!

    Inter are willing to sell but we won't stump up the money!

    These are squad players (apart from VDV)! Where is our marquee signing that we have been waiting years for?

    I never though he was going to come anyway, he will end up else where in the summer.

    Last ditch bid for Hooper it is then.

    You never said that. You said we're not signing anyone ad usual ****e... I'm only explaining to you that this isn't usual.. We regularly sign players on deadline day.

    I saw an article saying we'd made a bid of £16m, but I didn't believe it. Surely we didn't go in that low....?!

    of course we did, it's levy all over mate

    The way I see it is, we get rid of fringe players, get a few bob for them and get their wages off the books. Levy fools the fans into thinking we are bidding on £20 - £30 million players that will get us into Champions League. He keeps his £30 million pot, saves £20 million and doesn't give a ****e about not getting Champions League because he has banked £50 million +. Qualifying for CL is not a concern for him!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,746 ✭✭✭irishmover


    Couple places saying it was 13m lads...... That's a joke I hope though.

    Levy out


  • Registered Users Posts: 93 ✭✭mullaj00


    Levy out

    Not saying I want him out. He is a good business man, but has taken some risks that have went 'west'! Now he is tight-fisted in his dealings.

    You don't seem to get my point do you... You said signing NOBODY is the usual ****e at spurs on deadline day. I showed you facts as to why its unusual that we're signing nobody. Doesn't matter who these players are.

    Infact maybe these are prime examples of why its probably best we aren't signing anyone?

    Okay, I get your point, we do sign players, I get it! We should expect MORE than these sort of signings. We are in and challenging for a Champions League position. We have been short of a striker for a long, long time. We get these mediocre signings that pacify us to a degree but do not show true ambition to achieve!

    The only thing really going for us is Arsenal didn't strengthen attack either...
