JJ is Donna Cullen's brother. I know SC deny this but he is.

He's obviously well connected, but worth remembering that his connection is/was deeply involved in club PR.

Happy to take it all with a pinch of salt; but the above 'rule' that I mentioned transcends any such type of scrutiny/consideration.

(Allegedly Fab Romano is on the payroll! LOL)

Smeer = True
Good = Bots.

The war is ON!!!! 🤡

Is this real or not?
Depends on whether or not you'd think I'd have any interest in making it up.

I was on the ITK thread a few years ago, around 3-4 in the morning. JJ and one of the mods (I think it was Inoffmyleftshin) were chatting, thinking nobody would be reading.

JJ specifically mentioned coming to London when his sister left South Africa to work for the club.

Once the mod realised this was sensitive info they deleted the conversation.

SC previously confirmed Donna Cullen used to have an account on SC.

Up to you and others if you believe it. I didn't even know Donna Cullen was from South Africa until after reading that conversation and checking.
 
Milenkovic and Vestergarde they shouldn't be on the list.......

Who should be?

Point being a list is typically gonna end up being 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on a sliding scale of desire.

1a, 1b, 1c, 1d only exists in the abstract as all players will have differing degrees of ability.

........The list should be of a similar standard all the way through.

Would you be any happier with a shorter list instead?

Striker
Vlahovic
Ings
Simy

A lot of people rate Ings, i don't particularly but ok.
Simy 29 years old, one good season like Ings but from Italy so has to adapt to the premier league, this late in his career.

See above.....

Further to this...

"Donna-Maria Cullen graduated from the University of Cape Town in 1984 with a double Masters in Politics and English."

Who said it had to be the first offer?

We have seen how well Levy’s negotiating tactics has worked in the past. Now we have Paratici who is supposedly a similar negotiator.

When we see our rivals getting deals done and us consistently missing out on top players maybe we should revisit the way we handle these things.
Not only do you think you know Levy's negotiating tactics (you don't; you're just speculating), you also think we have the same clout as what you call "our rivals." Get fucking real, man.
 
Calm down says the man proposing we riot. o_O
I know it's just a laugh for you P but all this shit is ruining the thread.
There is an ENIC thread for you and your chums. Stop ruining other threads.

A riot that he wouldn't attend. He’ll just continue to constantly post about it on here. He's intent is right though. The absolute Cock Womble.

(love you really arcy, you’re the funniest poster on this forum and an inspirational Spurs fan. Please don't arrange for you and your gang to “finish me!” xxx)

Should be of a similar standard to one, two, three. The DOF has vast knowledge, should have vast knowledge of players of that standard. We shouldn't repeat the mistakes of the past.

See above.....
If the players aren't up to the standard we need I don't want them here. As said previously we could be stuck with average, shite players for two or three seasons. If any thing I'd rather put the youth in if we can't find anyone, they don't cost us any money.
Of course that means the board and everyone else would have to lower their expectations as a result.

Atalanta dragged their feet on a CB replacement so they held up the deal all week. Then Spurs upped their offer to try and get it done so Romero can report to Spurs after his holiday on Monday, and Atalanta are still delaying, so Spurs break off negotiations.

Feels like this happens tomorrow or the day after. Everyone wants it done from the sound of things. The deal is basically agreed to in principle.

One way or another it’s going to be over soon.

Such as whom?

The DOF has vast knowledge, should have vast knowledge of players of that standard. We shouldn't repeat the mistakes of the past.

Presumably the DOF believes them to be of a suitable standard? (...Above a certain 'unacceptable' level, if you will.)

If the players aren't up to the standard we need I don't want them here.

Again..... Presumably the DOF believes them to be of a suitable standard?


I don't think I've ever seen Milenkovic (eg) play.... Have you seen a lot of him? You said he'd already proven not good enough (or have I got the wrong end of the stick there?)

.....What I can recall though is that there were plenty of calls here to sign him last summer.

As said previously we could be stuck with average, shite players for two or three seasons. If any thing I'd rather put the youth in if we can't find anyone, they don't cost us any money.
Of course that means the board and everyone else would have to lower their expectations as a result.

How long we've kept the likes of Dier, Sanchez or whoever is a new thread of this conversation..... Nothing to do with Paratici either seeing as he's only been with us a month.
