On the window. I think that overall we are a midfield option or 2 light which might be a problem.

Certainly the area to consider in January.

Of Llorente, exactly the experience and type we need in many respects and because we kept Janssen for now, we also have a good 3rd option and with no reason why the 2 can't play together if needed.
Funny thing for me with Llorente, I was genuinely underwhelmed this time yesterday, now I'm actually looking forward to seeing what he can do for us.
 
Hatred of Woolwich is woven into our DNA and passed down from generatoi¡ion to generation, its gloriously irrational at times (I own no red clothing, even insignificant small red stripes or lettering annoy me).

Hatred of Chelsea is for more reasoned, rational, factual. If I had to choose I'd stick with the former but they work as two sides of the same coin really.

West Ham aren't even in the equation, they're as relevant to us as Brentford

My hatred of the Blue plastics comes from the mid 90s and dealing with their drunken violent fans who somehow broke through the cordon behind the stands in Park upper, and would inevitably need to be carried down on an ambulance chair with an oxygen tank (and the cunts that would do this were never waifs) - utterly knackered me every time and just wanted to make them bounce head first all the way down

Intensified by their gas chamber noises and coin throwing (my mother's grandparents were killed in Auschwitz and Bergen Belsen, thank god for the kinderschiff getting my folks out) and apologists like blood traitor David Baddiel, their fan base is truly rotten at the core and my hatred for them is intense

But I still hate the Scum a thousand times more, because they are the Scum

I thought shares were delisted in 2012 but I take your word for it and edited the post!

Tottenham Hotspur Limited is a privately owned company according to the companies house.

That has no relevance to the fact that 15% of the shares are not owned by ENIC and are made up of minor shareholders.

Asset Match handle the buying and selling of the shares, and recently had an auction for such a thing.
 
Talksport or Chelsea TV?( must be the first time a money grubbing whore has turned that lot down)
Moshiri is best mates with Jim White, what other owner/chairman in world football phones into a show minutes after a window closes to put his side of the story out first? i.e. sets the narrative he wants and puts into motion.

It's also interesting to note that unless I am very much mistaken Barkley hasn't said a word, not about last night, but he hasn't said a word about his whole saga with Everton since Koeman arrived at the club. Every single piece of dialog has come from Koeman and Moshiri, not a peep from the player.
 
So considering we were being "left behind" at the beginning of the window and how much "our rivals where strengthening whilst we were standing still". We have left the window with a potential improvement in two starting positions. This with a team where the "first 11 couldnt be improved".

As always with transfers, time will tell. Sometimes it takes a couple of seasons or more for a player's potential to be fulfilled, sometimes they have an immediate impact. But im pretty happy with the way we did our buisness.

In 1981 or 82 when I was 20 I was caught in the middle of a group of thirty or so old blokes aged 60-70, would have fought in the war probably, in the posh seats at Brisbane Road, all of them standing up and proudly zieg heiling, no word of a lie.

My Most Hated Football Clubs are:

1. Woolwich (Anyone who says otherwise, I give you exhibit A - Jack Wilshire singing on that fucking bus)
2. Real Madrid (They stand for everything I hate about football and pijo madrileño arrogance)
3. Chelsea (Horrid supporters. Both the old, racist ones and the new plastic ones. Just awful)
4. Hearts (because West Ham will never make the top 4 of anything)
5. West Ham (because they're annoying - you don't hear Charlton or Fulham bleating on and on like them)
 
I don't hate west ham per say. They are too tragic and awful to hate. They make me laugh a lot tho. They are like the villain from Lazy Town. A goof that tries to do bad things only to be laughed at.

Chelsea are fucking hateful tho. Everything I hate in football with the fact of being good what makes them worst.

Woolwich is our mortal enemy. But deep down I respect them because they go about football he fair way like us. Don't like them but they are still normal club. What fucks them over big time is having the worst fan base in the webs.
 
I think maybe the first white rap record but in a unique way . A great bass line.
This is "Radio Clash " on pirate satellite,
is my fav piece of punk hip hop . Years before anyone else and at the same time as Africa Bambatta, Soul sonic force etc.
Also add their gunslinger hipster no sell out style you have the greatest band of the
Punk/New wave era.
God bless Mr Strummer.


The Clash were amazing but even they (including fans) said they felt like they'd sold out with Give Em Enough Rope / Sandy Pearlman producing, what about the Levi's ad and pissing off to America and never coming back ........ not knocking them for it as i like the album and they deserved to finally start making some money.

The less said about ......

I love how Mick Jones left that off Soundbox.

Amazing band though and well before their time as you say with the dub/hip hop/reggae stuff. Jo Strummer is a legend and it's pretty shite how 99% of kids leaving school this year won't even know who he was or they are.

Still think The Jam were better though .... just

i know where you are coming from but go back to the mid 80s and the blue plastics were wearing dm boots and handing out NF leaflets - if my memory serves me right they were a lot worse then. i was VERY lucky to come out from that decade unscathed.
 
I don't think we'll see him at all - he was apparently shocking for holland, poch wouldn't play him when we were stuck for goals and I suspect he'd rather put dele or son up front and now llorente has joined. Curtains for the chap. He should have pushed for a loan move.
I think the only decent performances were from Robben and Fosu Mensah and weren't anything special.
The whole team was shocking.
Blind hadn't got a clue.
Advocado has a hard job.
