Trix on SC. It's incredible people still believe this fucking chancer

Older post from last week


Today's post:
"All I can say is that the player himself tried to play 4d chess without understanding the rules and it backfired spectacularly. Everyone thought money would solve the problem but Maranakis just put his foot down. In the end MGW had little choice but to sign a new deal, which happened very quickly btw, despite still desperately wanting out.

I know I'm not exactly explaining much, but this is 100% not the club's fault or even his reps for that matter, but I think I'd be really pushing my luck if I said any more than that tbh."

He took him to a basement with a couple of his goons and waterboarded him didn't he.

Still amazed there is people on here who think MGW didn't want to come to spurs! Richard Arlison Richard Arlison please watch that interview.

That interview is so telling. Mentions "Mr Marakinis" multiple times and makes no mention of Nuno or any team mates. Its almost like he had a gun to his head.

Let's stop changing the facts or pretending I'm the one making wild assumptions. It's as clear as day.

If this happens I will change my name on here for a year to pay tribute to levy! :levyhands:

It's a no brainer for Levy to make a bid for Rodrygo just to get all the fans back onside.

Then send that clown Lange over to tell Rodrygo we'll only pay him 150k a week known full we'll Rodrygo will turn us down. Levy can say he tried and it buys him more time.

So yes we might well bid for him. But no it's never happening and our bid will just be a PR stunt.

For the most part the dosh is moot......

Fandom aside; where would you prefer right now?


Paying CP more won't change anything...... And realistically how much more would you have to pay the player to change his mind that football's not the most important thing in his life? ...........5-10m extra p/a (on top of what the scum offer) for 5 years?
This is a vicious cycle for us, we don’t invest in top players and fall behind, and then top players don’t want to join us because we’ve fallen behind. Despondent state of affairs.

Eze is a non runner for us. He's desperate for Woolwich who are prob offering him 200k a week.

I can't see how we change Eze's mind. Only chance we'd have of getting him is if Woolwich sign someone else and we become Eze's fallback option.

I’ll be honest here, as much as I think the whole reporting cycle was a load of bollox, I did just see that announcement interview and it’s fucking bait af.

It’s a hostage video with Marinakis stood next to him knowing exactly what it looks like.
 
ENIC defence force readying themselves for the fightback I see

What a load of utter, pathetic, weak minded nonsense

I and others like me were fucking DELIGHTED when news of this signing first broke. See mine and other like minded posts in the MGW thread for proof you total fucking weapon.
And each and every one of us is gutted, absolutely gutted, that it ain't no longer happening.

Levy could burn the fucking place to the ground and you'd be here saying "ooohhh, look at them using it as another stick to beat poor uncle Daniel with..ooohhhh. it's not fair.


You're absolutely pathetic. As is every wet wipe that agrees with your pathetic trolling bullshit
What's up JT? Getting spiky for being called out for what you are?

Need to move on. Its not like we missed out on a prime messi. Hes a decent player MGW but not world class. Need to behave like a big club and find better players. Tottenham will always be way bigger than forest. Not arrogance just simple facts.
 
Yep, ENIC has lowered our expectations to think we should be buying second tier players.

If we had better owners we would be signing the likes of Eze or Simons. They should not be out of our reach .
Lowered them from when?

Honest John Honest John says our expectations have been lowered since 1961 when we signed Jimmy Greaves for a record fee. I’m sure those of us who are 80 and remember that have adjusted in the 64 years since.

Tbh i think it lowered when venables left. Had big ambitions for club and a trophy to show. Had a swagger. The exception was signing klinsmann under sugar.
