The Weekend ITK Discussion Thread - 15th/16th August 2015

Whats all this about Jasper?

He got convicted of multiple homicides. He is now doing the first year of his 450 year sentance in parkhurst. We are trying to get a phone smuggled into him.

This is a lie.

Itk bashers pissed him off and he's had some personal shit so might not post anymore.

Last year was supposed to be a transition though...just like this one will be.

Its the transition between two transition seasons.

Re: The goats info. We've been here time and time again. We don't seem to ever learn do we? Farcical. Is it really that hard to sign a player(any player in world football) who can improve our squad/team? We all know how this usually ends. I'll reserve judgement until an hour or so after the transfer window closes. Still a shambolic way to go about your transfers.

I think we are too close to deadline day now - I predict Levy will be playing the usual TDD game which invariably we miss out.

To be honest as we only play one up front, if not SB Id take Austin as he's quickly gettable , i think he'd play understudy to Kane and partner when required and wouldn't cost the earth. Then The priority signing is that elusive midfielder.

Lessons have been learned, we have a plan in place, targets already lined up for next window as well as a long list of backup options sounded out...Negotiations are proving difficult, selling clubs need to find replacements, bigger clubs may be interested, we need to wait til the end of the window, we have a list of targets that the manager is happy with....Is complicated, we have a few targets the manager is happy with, player x wanted too much money, player y wanted champions league football, player z got offered a new contract, but we didn't want him anyway, we have already moved on to superior targets....We tried but the deal was difficult to do, club x changed the terms at the last minute/broke their fax machine, it was too late in the window club y didn't have time to find a replacement, we ran out of time, all the documents were in order but we didn't register with the FA in time....BUT don't worry as negotiations are ongoing we are already quite far down the line and we now have the signings for next the window already in place, lessons have been learned and the manager is very happy with the players at his disposal....


And they say the definition of insanity is.....?

I must say I'm a lurker more than a poster , but there are some arseholes on this forum who constantly slag off and ridicule theITK , it has seem to got worse last winter and has carried on through the summer. I for one take everything with a pinch
Of salt , some people take everything las gospel. Then become rude and pisstaking when it doesn't come to fruition.
Anyway hope jasper and his family are getting there life to a normal life as possible .
Hope to have you back agin in the future .
Thanks
Jon

Sorry but you might have missed the fact that we have signed 4 players, 3 well before the start of the season. But never let facts get in the way of a good rant hey?

 

[sak11]

Why we have Kane and njie? Chadli and lamela could play there if required. We still have a couple of weeks till the window shuts.

Would you prefer gayle?

the one thing that should be clear as day is that neither chadli nor lamely have the ability to play CF for us.

Probably why we bought njie and are looking at getting another.

There are one or two who have trod a fine line but generally anyone who indulges themselves in bashing of any form gets their access removed in quick time. We won't have it. Personally I think we've managed to keep SC relatively clear of it myself so your comments confuse me.

Has it been that bad on here?

Not that I've seen and I spend a very unhealthy amount of time on here. You get the occasional twit who steps past the mark, but they're usually dealt with very quickly. I personally think you guys do a great job of nipping that kind of rubbish in the bud. If any ITKer is going to post their stuff then this is by far and away the best forum in which to do so.

I think he is talking about SO

I'm not saying sc don't do a great job , they do its a good site with a lot of banter , all I was saying was for the short time I've been on here it has gradually got worse. That's all .
I've seen the ban stick more this summer than before.?

 

[McFlash]

I know Jasper and we exchange Pm's, I have asked him but I have invited him over here before.

Could you please pass on our best regards to him?
I've been having a pretty shitty couple of years and coming on here provides the little bit of escapism I sometimes need. It wouldn't be nice to be hounded out by a few idiots, especially when his mind isn't in a good place at the moment.

Only one of whom is worthy of a starting berth...another of whom is currently our fifth choice centre back and the third a centre mid has a centre back being played out of position at CM ahead of him. Not exactly a recipe for success in my eyes, but there you go.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

Don't expect to see anyone in before Leciester.. It's all seemingly pointing towards last minute attempts to sign Berahino, Illaremendi etc IMO.

Dread to consider what alternatives will be thrown up when we inevitably fail in securing those.

Obviously our coach thought they were more of a priority. We would have had marshall earlier in the window but monaco offered him a contract we couldn't compete with.

How come GhostFarmo's stuff doesn't get out in the RO section?

Don't think he's too keen on the idea of it being too highlighted.
