    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The BEN HUR Edition 7th July 2012

    I agree with this. Actually the RO was/is one of my first port of calls to check up on the latest stuff. However as soon as I started to realise that info was not being updated as quickly as it could and then the migration to twitter by ITK'ers where they post instantly, I switched up my viewing...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - The BEN HUR Edition 7th July 2012

    One of the great things about the Twitter thread is that the discussions of how best to post/publish/manage ITK doesn't happen. It's a free-for-all, but it churns out verified ITK, non-verified ITK and crazy rumours. It all ends up being fun. Likewise, people are pretty quick to identify the...

    Hey, this is a pretty good idea. I can't believe no one has thought about this before... you should keep this one going.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 4 August 2009

    Doesn't your statement (putting aside the validity of it and the use of 90%) just agree with what DA said? On one hand, you have a player who has struggled to establish himself at three clubs, and by Redknapps and his fathers admission, hasn't had his head screwed on right (too much going...

    Kevin Prince Boateng interview (some Spurs-relevant stuff)

    So lets say you have someone placed under your management that you didn't want and was lazy. What do you do? a) Tell him "you don't want him" b) Try and get the best out of him (see if you can turn him around, if not so be it) What does following route 'a' do and what does following...

    Kevin Prince Boateng interview (some Spurs-relevant stuff)

    As always communication between Club management is vital for the success of a team. With Redknapp, currently, we thankfully don't have this problem. Commolli should have worked with Jol on signing players they both agreed on (and worked to improve his relationship with Jol), and Jol should not...

    Champions League Semis

    Inter defended well. As did we against Arsenal. But we didn't do all the falling over on contact, holding ankles after every challenge, time wasting at every opportunity etc etc. Basically all the stuff that Mourinho is famous for. Love his tactics, hate the style. It may be effective, but I...

    Champions League Semis

    Shocking refereeing. Inter Milan fell and flopped their way to a 1-0 defeat tonight. I think 10% of the match was taken up by Lucio holding his ankle on the floor after every challenge. Barcelona were poor though, until the last 10 minutes. Also, the disallowed goal should not have been...

    Tottenham Vs Fulham: Match Thread

    Tom Huddlestone is dominating. Every pass is dropping on the head of a pin, inch perfect.

    Say what now ITV commentators? Brilliant play! COYS! We can score even more!

    Tottenham Vs Fulham: Match Thread

    Patience and cohesion - Fulham. I have never seen such an opposition love-in in all my life from ITV.

    Tottenham Vs Fulham: Match Thread

    Worst commentary ever. Jesus. Last 15 min we were attacking, they were quiet. One Fulham attack, and they're playing beautifully?! Get off Zamora's crotch. Advice to Gomes? Pass it to Crouch earlier. What the hell? Shocking commentary.

    Next?! I would imagine his list has many names crossed out already. You'd go in to battle with Terry, but not on a double date.

    Bae and Charlie

    Yeah, when the ref called them over. I'd rather he sorted it out without the ref acting as peacemaker. It was unnecessary from BAE and Charlie, I hoped to see Dawson tell them to focus and shut the hell up (as much as I dislike him, as one would expect Terry to do). The following 20 minutes were...

    Bae and Charlie

    Is it really 'passion' though? Its more petulance between the two of them. And it actually seemed to affect our play, we played poorly after it when Stoke were at the time down to 10 men, culminating in giving a penalty away. There was also a moment when Bassong was caught in possession looking...
