The only one ever worth his salt used to be JJetset. In the Harry Redknapp era he def had someone on the inside - probably Harry himself as he seemed to know everything going on - the rest of them are chancers.

The random ITK always seems to be the best, sometimes people do over hear stuff or get an inside line out of the blue

There used to be another ‘ITK’ who had ‘Jedi’ or ‘genii’ in his user name ( I can’t remember which) , who had info on other stuff within the club but not much on player transfers.
 
I remember someone leaking a still image from CCTV footage of Poch being shown round the training ground or stadium before he was announced as our manager.

Who was that?

You say that but a year ago we were forced to let Doherty go because we had to many players out on loan.

Granted that was under a different structure, yet I still feel like we’re a step away from

Totally dumb admin about Doc.

yep during the redknapp era he was pretty much spot in for the most part tbh (knew we signed Saha and Nelson quite afew hours before it was made public amongst other things).

It was clear after Arry left he didn't know anything though.

That was the period when itk was just a bit of fun and not taken as gospel or so seriously. I alluded to it the other day. SC was pretty good then because of it but then they got up their own arse and realised about the donations. Since then and twitter it’s no longer a thing really.

Looks like the club aren’t as fussed about the club trained thing as some on here. 😅

Great money for Skippy. I like the lad, but he doesn’t win you titles or compete in the biggest comps. It’s just a harsh reality.

Sure that means that ‘energetic midfielder’ is pretty much done and dusted. Beauty is, nobody has a clue who it will be!!!

I said in the Skipp thread that Ange more or less said Ollie himself wanted to move.

with both Skipp & PEH gone we are a bit short of a DM if we get injuries & giving Biss & Bent a rest
ues we can get a youth player on for 5/10 mins but we now need a backup or even better a first 11 starting DM

We have Gray, he will play a lot of minutes this season. I think we’ll try and replace Bissouma with someone better and then Gray will compete with that new signing for the 6 position.

I would get rid of Richie. If Toney leaves Brentford for Saudi they might take him on loan at least, given Toney replacement has a long term injury.

reasoning
1. we have cover for Solanke in Kulu, Son and Lankshear
2. His mental fragility will not go well on the sub bench
3. frees up a Non-HG/johnny foreigner spot.
4. Ange sees him as surplus to requirements given willing to transfer to Saudi.

We finally have 2 x #9's suited to the system we play, and you want to sell one of them? Yes, Richy has had a stop start Spurs career due to injury, but with the games we're playing there is room for both Richy and Solanke. When he was fit last year he scored something like 9 goals in 9 PL games (Dec/Jan). And in the last 2 months of the season we looked a lot more dangerous with him on the pitch.
