This reminds me of a Gerry Francis style window, he claimed to have flown thousands and thousands of miles, watched hundreds of players and we still ended up signing nobody!

On a serious note (apologies if this theory has already been put forward), could some of our targets play for clubs who have CL and Europa qualifying games still to play? They get knocked out and then we finally buy......don't hold your breath.

Possibly. Apparently the qualifying games don't render the player cup-tied.
 
If I told a small group of people a secret, and suddenly everyone found out, I can guarantee you I'd know who blabbed.

A quite rudimentary method is to tell different people slightly differing details, which then makes it clear where the information came from.

This is a world where a single transfer can now easily be worth over £100m - where one club can steal another transfer just before a contract is due to be signed - it most definitely is stringent on confidentiality, not least with us.
If Walt was telling the truth and it's his real name.

Who's got a mate called Walter.
You're sacked.

Can't sack if he doesn't divulge any names, clubs, leagues etc.
That's what makes itk so easy to blag.
The kids can't even get things signed by the senior players, like shirts etc at Spurs.
 
The only ITK I've ever posted was the new stadium capacity going from 56,000 to 61,000, and us playing at MK this season. 1 out of 2 ain't bad.

Apparently I was all over SC with them rubbishing my stadium information. Ha! Have that you ITK bastards.

Just to clarify, I was making a humorous connection between the fact you "used to" work for BBC contracts and know that you get sacked if you blab. That, and a play on the 'JJetset' thing.
 
Big rumours tonigbt that Danny Rose is not happy with our lack of ambition in the market and would consider an offer if it come along. A top 6 player has been interviewed with the sun and apparantly its Rose. If true not surprised at the slightest. What have I been saying all window ? Whilst getting shot down by certain posters on here. It's come right back to bite us in the ass. What a load of fucking bolloks!!! This fucking chairman of ours will ruin everything we have built.

Prem superstar opens his heart to The Sun in a sensational interview that will leave one top six side reeling

He's a top 2 player. And it's the Sun.
