The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 5th August 2013

He's said he's put it in the RO, but it's not there (that I can see). Does it just need Mod's approval?

Bloody mods having a wankfest before giving us the sanitised version. Why do we even bother with the subscription fees.

If Bale stays Mystery will now be my new god of ITK.

Only problem is there could be a world where both JJ and Mystery are right and the club are selling him behind his and AVBs back

Or maybe Bale's camp are deliberately holding back info from potential marketing deals so that they are not jeopardised?

 

[Rout-Ledge]

I don't think we've ever had so much conflicting ITK.

Though interestingly we've had nothing to suggest that Bale is refusing to play, or going on strike.

I'm of the opinion that the club are actually very interested in selling to Real Madrid for a world record fee, and intend to make this happen.

 

[Flashspur]

wow just got to keep up the fantasy that Jessica Alba walked in with Krispy Kremes and coffee and asked me if I want to get it on straight away or have the latte and donuts first..........not...going....to.... let... any.... other.... ITK.... spoil... this.... moment......

 

[CrazyKen]

Aah, your just crazy, Ken

I shure am..I live up to my name

 

[dricha1]

My one and only concern: why nothing from Gareth. It only takes 2 words on twitter from him, "I'm staying". But he has gone so quiet.

Sorry meant to agree will correct when on a PC

Joules excuse me if I suggest we Mu On from this silliness.

Look, I know my post was a bit quarky, but I fixed it now so we can move on.

I'd think some marketing deals are dependent on him staying with us, and others not so much. If I was looking to market a player, who is in the papers so much and rumored to be moving to Madrid, I'd want to know the score on the move before signing any deal.

Might just be me in that line of thinking, as I have no idea how it all works.

Nice. I was having a hard time working quark into a post. Bravo

 

[CAIN]

Who cares where the info comes from, as long as it's accurate......and titillating

 

[thinktank]

[andyp8080]

The reason I came back here is because I know in advance what new contracts I sign with companies/individuals. The contracts I sign are one off and not repeat work, and things change pretty fast. I'm not dealign DIRECT with the Bale camp, but on endorsements that involves the player

Hope this clears it up.

Cheers

I hope one of them is not Adidas

Risky move but I feel that us SC plebs, as seasoned purveyors of ITK, are entitled to do a little digging to see what things ITK's have got right or wrong in the past.

'The rumours regarding HR, are completely RUBBISH. As are the rumours re DL and HR not getting along, things are fine between the pair, opposites attract... HR will sign a new contract before pre-season.'

That was posted by Mystery less than two weeks before Harry was sacked.

But I think we all know it was Joe Lewis who fired Harry?

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

Fact of the matter is, Bale could be willing to stay... If the price is right from RM Levy will sell.

 

[ross the saint]

I am so intrigued to find out how and where these ITK's get their info.

How does one become a mod?

Do you have to proton and on about it!

Feel free to "dig" but if you think you've spotted some inconsistencies then we'd rather you PMed us privately rather than posting it publicly

We've had quite a few people do that before and it can be helpful but often there's a reasonable explanation, just one that can't be posted publicly without giving too much away.

By having a fairly large and well endowed ban stick.

Fair point, I don't have a clue either. Just speculating really. Sounds very promising if its from the Bale camp. Would be fuming if GB was pushed for the £££ though. If things go to plan the offer would still be there again next year!

You're not still going electr-on about it are you?
