hertyid in nfl/ownership thread: Been away for a while. Spoke with my friend. He flew to Malaysia on Saturday (with Ossie again, his new travel companion) and will be in meetings the next few days. Some big commercial deals being signed by the sounds of it. Can't see this being anything but good news.

I'm guessing this is part of the reason for the tour. Wonder if they are with anyone else other than AIA? Or what do they pertain?

Relax everybody. Morgan's just getting into the SC frame of mind with a cryptic.

When he says he wants CL, he's actually saying he wants Ciel because he's French and Ciel is French for Heaven.

Heaven is a song by the Psychedelic Furs and the words that follow 'Heaven' in the chorus are 'is the whole of our hearts and'.

'is the whole of our hearts and' is an anagram of 'White Hart Lane Frodo House'.

'White Hart Lane Frodo House' is obviously a reference to the office of our hobbit-sized Chairman.

And so what MS is really saying is that he wants to sign a contract with Levy to play for Spurs.



Or am I clutching at straws, do you think?

:woot: He's coming!!!

I really couldn't care who we sign as long as they come in and do a job. I'd not heard of Berbatov, Bale or Modric, Lloris before they came. I had heard or Bent and Rebrov. It means nothing.

Perversely I'd feel more satisfaction if this was exactly the case. Spurs to discover, develop and make them into 'our stars' and be known to have the best shit hot scouting system that constantly unearths gems rather than just have to buy top stars.

We are meeting a load of business people while in Sydney so that might be what he's talking about.

Hope it's not just the sort of thing you hear like "the club is proud to announce Hertz Australia as our official Australasia car hire partner" :rolleyes:

The whole tour is about our sponsors and meeting new contacts. These are only partly about growing our brand these days.

I'm glad we've learned from previous seasons and are getting our disappointing news in early this year, rather than leaving it until the last minute.

If Arse buy Vidal, not sure which other CL club is in for him.

And how about Southampton don't get EL.

Aren't we a step up then ?

Scratch that...that would mean Arse winning FA Cup.
I don't want Schneiderlin :cautious::facepalm:
Wouldn't that mean Villa winning it?

It's going to be fun seeing certain members of this forum actually supporting Tim for a change. Then again they'll probably want Arsenal to win.

The whole point of our new scouting network is an acknowledgement that Schneiderlin, Cabaye and the link are a very tall ask for a club like us to get. Once in a blue moon a player like that may be available for a price we can afford at a time when no bigger clubs are interested (ie Lloris). For the most part we need to buy these players at the same time that Newcastle and Saints did- before they were recognised or became that good. To do that regularly and effectively we needed Mitchell and the rest of our new geek squad of analysts, as well as Broomfield back who will no doubt head up a refresh of the good ol' fashioned field scouting.

I'm thinking our summer maybe more Kevin Wimmers and Kieran Trippiers than Morgan Schnerderlins and Matt Hummels. No less excited to see what we come up with though...

So true, I'm looking forward to seeing what gems they can unearth.
