Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports



Fuck me, have you missed a therapy appointment over the weekend, honestly man it’s like you’ve snapped.

Take your tin foil hat off and eat a biscuit ffs.
 

Can you not understand that just because something doesn’t happen doesn’t mean the infortmation wasn’t correct at the time? If both Spurs and the agents believed the MGW bid had been accepted and he was due for a medical and feed Romano that information, why would he not post it?
 
Slightly off topic for a second, however the new season is almost upon us.

Prediction League is now open...

MORGAN GIBBS-WHITE DOESN'T EXIST!!!! SHEEP! SHEEP!
 
Harvey Elliot, haha.

We are literally turning into Everton. Nearest rivals signing elite players and challenging for the top honours, whilst we take cast offs from the top teams and pretend we are ambitious, it''s so depressing.
 
Suddenly I’m worried about next season.

Spent 2 weeks chasing one player and don’t seem remotely close to another.
What IS it with us and Fat Greeks in football?

They're like buses... You never hear of one, then TWO come along at once!!


This is such an odd way of announcing a contract extension. I've never seen it being framed by the club as a statement of intent from the owner...
You do if the owner is a megalomaniac dictator!!!
 
I don’t need evidence, they do. I’m not claiming anything.

Forest owner threatened legal action did he?

Seen any evidence of that?

Release clause triggered and player wants the move but just reports to training like normal?

None of that seems even remotely far fetched to you ? Because you trust the journalists that reported it.

Up to you I guess.

Bet you were not spending that 60m on another established player and it’s not like they don’t exist
Where did your 60m figure come from, if none of this ever happened?
 
Same story, 3 different remixes

No doubt everyone believed it was true every time
I mean anyone who’s got half a brain and knows how the football transfer factory works can see how these things play out. We clearly thought we had him, that information was disseminated, the next day Marinakis put a stop to everything and that information was disseminated.

Not sure what kind of conspiracy you think is being perpetuated?

Yes, I do think multiple independent sources corroborating each other, many of whom have proved to be reliable in the past (Daily Telegraph, BBC and Alasdair Gold) is strong evidence. I don't think it's far fetched given what we know about Nottingham Forest's owner.

As for 'training like normal', this interview made it clear that the MGW situation was not 'normal':

Apologies, but you do sometimes appear to lack the ability to apply even basic critical thinking skills.
