    Got this of the Harry Hotspur forum, this sums up exactly how i feel , and a hell of a lot of yids agree.


    What an uninspired load of old
    tosh. For those of you with any Champions League related memorabilia
    such as Investec shirts or match programmes etc I suggest you put them
    somewhere safe as you may have inadvertently stumbled upon a collector’s
    item.

    You tell me.
    We are linked with every striker
    in Europe with two feet and pulse. Our noble leader Redschnapps
    actually went as far as telling us that he had a chairman who was
    pushing him to splash out.

    What we got was the equivalent
    of a man throwing himself on his own sword and then as the blade sinks
    through him – he decides to take – an Asprin. Charlie Adam? For the
    love of God, who’s brainwave was this?

    This top of the range, executive
    class donkey was bought from Rangers for half a million quid. Yes he’s
    had a cracking season. At Blackpool. Blackpool. Rusted fairground rides,
    white dog muck, unfunny ‘adult’ novelty gifts, racist comics, people
    living on chips, donkey rides, varicose veins, dripping ice creams,
    Blackpool. Blackpool.

    Levy & Co are culpable here.
    As the Van der Vaart deal demonstrated, you let Arry do the tapping up
    when it comes to garbage like Scott Parker, but when you want to land a
    big fish you need an adult to help you reel it in.

    This window was exciting for a
    number of clubs and a variety of reasons. It reflected the lack of
    confidence that’s currently doing the rounds. Only Manchester United and
    Arsenal feel that they can hold a steady course with their current
    crew. Cheatski and Liverpool had to trade. They had to.

    And I fully believe that Tottenham were in the very same position.
    Are we waiting for Defoe to ‘bed
    in’? For Crouch to find his groove? The Russian is the closest thing we
    have to a top notch striker and Arry won’t play him because he doesn’t
    really rate him.

    He doesn’t rate him because he
    can’t relate to him. When he talks to him, the boy just looks back at
    him. Occasionally smiling. I can picture it. Arry turning to Bondy and
    muttering, ‘I can’t get frew to ‘im.’

    Do we need a Director of
    Football? Do we need someone who can scout decent players in Europe
    without literally having his trousers pulled down and his watch and
    credit cards stolen? Someone who speaks a version of English that humans
    born outside the sound of Bow Bells can actually understand?

    If the rest of this season was a movie it would be called, Day Of The Triffics.
    Get ready for a lot of hoofing
    and a slip down the table. Irrespective of Bale, it just isn’t possible
    for Spurs to sustain the positives they’ve had with the current squad.
    This isn’t a delayed rant and rave after the Fulham debacle, this a
    wimper from a guy who’s depressed that we were so close, but in the
    final analysis lacked the gumption to see the job through.

    As the writer is coming from a premis that Harry & Levy dont understand the transfer market I think as an artical it's just a little bit crap.

    And if Arry had been the manager when Rasiak was signed rather than Jol then no doubt it would be a criticism and his capability in the transfer market you could put to him Lobby

    Interesting issue is whether a manager proves themselves more capable in the transfer window by not signing players, in walking away when the deal is not right and the player not just what is needed, rather than signing a clutch every window just to keep the great unwashed happy

    Results business, and as not a ball has been kicked post window then it is a big unknown

    In the window after Rasiak we went after Torres, he didn't want to come because he got better options ( he thought)We had bid 20M and were given the OK to talk. It didn't happen, Now you can argue that we wont pay the asking price but you cant say the club cant recognise a good player or indeed know the value of a player, we simply cant splash the cash like the others do.

    And frankly £85M for an unproven thugg & a sick note premadonna is a massive risk.
