Haha yeah I just saw that :lol:
Sorry, Kameni will sign, this guys info is accurate (I'd far prefer adler/gomes). I'm sorry to have to contradict an 'itk', but I have a source that has proven to be accurate , within the club.
P.S, I think you'll also find that in January I was the first to call Hutton still on after the 'knockback' (which never actually happened) and firmly stated that there was no truth whatsoever in the Downing, Fred or Love rumours. All four calls were very much against received ITK wisdom (which already had then signed up and kitted out for the photoshoot).

I've always believed the stuff you post mate. I dont trust alot of the ITK's (although I never slag them off cause I enjoy discussing the info), but you always sound like you know what you're talking about and there's no bullshit in between.
Glad we're not going for Kameni I think we could do better.
By the way, in your opinion do you reckon we'll make any really big signings (like Modric or bigger) or will they most likely be lesser profile? Personnally I'm not bothered about Ronaldinho, Eto'o etc. I'm a big fan of Villa though and would mind if we picked up a few of those Valencia boys on the cheap.
Dan - you clearly have some good info.
You were wrong about the duration of Gareth Bale's injury though. Many of us had already seen the Welsh local newspaper article which put him out for the season... :wink:
Was Downing entirely an agent story? The agent was clearly keen to make some cash, but it smelt like we would have taken him at what we considered a reasonable price. Then Boro put that price up and - as with Ashley Young - we basically said: "he's not worth that much", and walked away.
Dan, are you able to let us (A&C or myself) know in confidence about your source(s)? You've already started to get a bit of stick on other forums and that does reflect on SC as a whole as well.
We're more than happy to have you posting stuff and it's all extremely interesting but I'd be even happier if I could tell the doubters to shut up and that we know where you're info's coming from and that it's decent.
If you can't or won't tell us then fair enough, that's cool and we hope you keep up the interesting posts
I've already unsubtly hinted at my ultimate top spurs source - but our mutual friend is not a public figure or anyone anyone is going to know.
I've always said I'm a journalist which I how I have mutliple contacts across the business, but I don't write sports for any newspaper or online site so I have no agenda in frequenting sites like this. I hope my posts show, particularly as most are (explicitly) just my opinions, that I'm simply a big fan. My actual gripe is how things about the club are misrepresented by the media and in other rumours, usually to do us down, so I've just taken to correcting a few inaccuracies.
