Cool news about the NFL.

If anyone is interested, I asked JJ just now about Pritchard's contract.

   @eddiesfootyblog yeah big years

I took 'big years' as 'street' for a long contract.

Mad times...

Great news. I live opposite Griffin Park and had the pleasure to watch Pritchard in the flesh many a time last season.
Absolute class act on a massive upwards curve!

Totally different view is the sting in the tail do do with the naming rights, although i cannot think of a big company to sponsor the stadium that fits other than the Ford Scorpio Stadium

Jasper just posted this on SO:

Those of you concerned about our policy in the transfer market need not worry. The financing is unique and as good as paying for itself by virtue of intricate sponsorships, naming rights and branding based a lot on the franchise models adapted in the USA. We will NOT become a franchise but sponsors etc are queing by tender I think. Corporate facilities will be out of this world. Watch the roof design guys

Sting = The Police = Cops = Standing Kop section in the new stadium?

Also tail = end

So Kop end

So we'll be carrying on with net transfers spends and selling our best players

Great

On the contrary, the stadium in essence pays for itself from what he is saying and the fact companies are queing to tender for a peices of the new SUper SPURS stadium , its all good in the hood as they say!!!

This could do wonders for our US fanbase.

It will without a doubt. Brad will be our mouthpiece spreading our seed far and wide across the land.

Fucking hell in all of the excitement I didn't even realise we'd signed Alderweireld.

If we just get news now that West Ham have signed Adebayor for 30m it would be a perfect day!

 

[PT]

Anyone heard anything about Townsend linked to West Ham?

Alderweireld getting the Farrah Fawcett treatment from the club there.

Temp ban yourself PT. You know it's the right thing to do.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

So what's the sting in the tail?

Fewer NFL games (min 2) than people might have been expecting?

Or that there may be games played at other venues too?

 

[Francis Gibbs]

yep Mirror were reporting it earlier in the week £15m I think was the number

We have a winner!

 

[felmani26]

This is, what can only be described, as a complete and utter meltdown!

Don't think we've got to the sting yet.
Suspect it will be that, despite DL initially saying only 1 year away, it will be 2.
This will be final season in the stadium as it is.

Well it does refer to Summer 2018. So it will be 2 seasons playing away. So yeah, maybe that's it.

I was expecting that tbh though. 1 year would never be enough

As a follow-up JJ just said that he doesn't think he'll get lots of game-time though...
