The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 17th August 2015

Is this another cryptic??

Haha, No.....i wouldn't do a cryptic as im not good at all. I just thought that "Old Benjamin" who suffers from hard of hearing. I thought it could be Benjamin Franklin, who are said to be hard of hearing during his latter years.

Old Benjamin Franklin - Old Frank?

"I keep calling him but he just doesn't hear me" - Is this referring to one, having a long history of medical issues? Often Injured?

The last part of that cryptic maybe referring to our coaching and medical staffs confident of managing this player issues?

So is Frank = Franck = Franck Ribery? Ribery had a bad ankle injury recently right? So is he still in Bayern's plan?

Wasn't it reported that a large group of our senior management team was in Germany? So was Franck Ribery one of those that the club is "watching", on top of Werner, Kramer and S Bender?

This is the ITK Discussion Thread where levels of intelligence sink to minimal at best.

You know what you've done now, right?

529 SC'ers will be Googling "Disraeli" to see who he plays for

They're still looking for Alec Guiness mate!

Disraeli will make their heads explode

We were promised the answers to two cryptics- given that I should have sorted the garden out hours ago and shit, can we at least have one of the answers. And yes, I am a grown man but this kind of information is very important to me so let's have a quick, cheeky, full-frontal, oo-err missus reveal. Then I can at least pretend the other details of my life are just as important during this month.

I've been sitting with a guy all week who works part time in the QPR youth set up. Reckons that Austin has been in talks with us for weeks. I said I highly doubt that, offered me a 100 euro bet on it. Whether he comes or not is a different matter, but he said we'd had extended conversations. Is this the wrong thread?

I'm absolutely sure we have this guy on ice, he isn't moving anywhere else at the moment, so he and QPR will get desperate, this move has deadline backup all over it, Gards hinted as much though I guess that was opinion. As deadline bargain basement moves go, this is quite a decent one IMO.

Doctor Ross.... Ross Geller.... Uri Geller.... Spoon bender.... Sven Bender... must be.

Sold. That's me off to sort the garden out. See you shitters later.

 

[Spurrific]

Ooooooooo, that's good!

Except the whole clue wasn't just 'Dr Geller'?

How does it fit with the rest of the clue?

 

[Indisguise]

'Ben'der?

 

[HappySpur]

Ross Gellar would be Dr. Gellar rather than Dr. Ross, wouldn't he?

 

[Darrkespur]

If you search for Alec Guinness (old Ben kenobi) and George Clooney (Dr Ross in ER) you get the following article:

A reference to how self-hating we are about our transfer strategy?

 

[spursfan77]

Regarding the cryptic. Could it be the person saying the quote that's the key?

I've no idea who that is though unfortunately!

 

[kd2000]

"Poor old Benjamin,(Ben) I keep calling him but he just doesn't hear me(deaf). So I took him to see Dr Ross,(professor) who has done a really good job of fixing him.(cured)"

Bender procured??

 

[Parkie]

'Ben'der?

Yes - old Bender - Lars is the older one. I'm happy with that so it must be the answer!

 

[Real_madyidd]

Doctor Ross.... Ross Geller.... Uri Geller.... Spoon bender.... Sven Bender... must be.

Hold on.

How old are you Ben?

 

[Real_madyidd]

I said "HOW OLD ARE YOU?"

Exciting ITK news in the Messi player thread

 

[benoles]

Eva Carneiro to spurs confirmed

 

[razor1981]

Ok, here goes...

Poor old Benjamin, I keep calling him but he just doesn't hear me.

Old Benjamin can't hear = OB said "I no hear" = Saido Berahino

So I took him to see Dr Ross, who has done a really good job of fixing him."

= So I took him to see Dr Gellar who has done a really good job of mending him.
