Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Poor transfer window as usual. We replaced Werner with Tel, have we replaced Son!

I doubt one decent signing in Kudus will turn last season's poor form.

The worrying part Frank is having the same start to the season as Ange did!

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and should not be acceptable but fuck it , works for me . So who is the genius who thought sending Mikey Moore to Rangers was a good idea . Whoever it was they were employed by the idiot Levy .

Hindsight ? Most definitely
Fits my agenda ? Hell yeah
Is the wee man paid more than any other CEO so the buck stops with him ? Damn right it does .

So we get a confidence shattered Mikey back as he plays in a toxic environment, well done Baldy

That was my overriding thought reading about the shitfest that befell Rangers in Belgium last night.

It’s not rocket science is it , for reasons we don’t need to go into the Rangers / Celtic environment will be toxic for the weaker of the two teams . Even Celtic fans who are comfortably on top are getting super pissed off at CL failure .

We have sent a top prospect away from a few Levy out chants to an absolute pressure cooker . Not saying Mikey didn’t need a loan , but actually it’s not hindsight to know Rangers who are miles off Celtic was a massive risk . I suspect this is worse than sticking him into a relegation dogfight.

Stupid in the extreme, I have no skin in the sectarian bullshit between the two clubs just wish we hadn’t stuck Mikey in the middle of it
 
Where’s the attitude stuff come from about Simons?

Never heard he’s a bad egg before. 🤷‍♂️

Bit arrogant maybe, but I like that. It’s something we always lack.

No plan, no leadership, no sense of obvious direction.

Should anything happen between now and the close of the window,it's opportunistic and any sense of pleasure will just be without value. More relief than excitement.

We could use Slot and Liverpool as a parallel. Last season, new manager seemingly not backed, other than one late signing. We all know what they did, but the season before they had not finished 17th.

It's not just about money but it's the need for clarity. We are just in the dark other than what are proving to be vacuous or even deceitful words from Levy. Some of us may be pragmatic but we arent stupid.

We aren't the worst by any stretch but it's not a race to the bottom.

I will admit real surprise at this window, but like that Frank does not want players just for the sake of it, and won't retain youngsters, just to give them a few minutes. It has to be hoped he can steer us through choppy waters, because there is a storm brewing. No doubt about that.

Nah he can man up. It's a game of football and his should be head and shoulders above most of the league quality wise.
 
I photographed him in the HoC, many many moons ago.

He'd just done some ceremony handing out bibles to Ulster Unionist MPs but the pics I'd got there were deadly dull so we retired to his office.

I asked him to hold the bible on his desk. He started waving it about like a madman, shouting out "Like this? LIKE THIS???"

Scary fucker, religious lunatic.
Scary bigoted and in the past thankfully.
