Bigi again. This kid's got balls of steel.

Vuckic coming on

Poor lad. That's a valuable weapon we're losing.

Sickening if he's out for a long time. Looks like a knee injury

Raylor

Perch!! so close

Bigi

5 year deal for this fucker

Let's thrash this shower

they still clapping?

RIP Freddie

Forget about the window. NUFC are out on the pitch. Such a calming assurance that there's a game on now. It's what this is all about

Fuck this shit. We're at home, we should be in black and white.

Looks like a decent turnout from the tv

I reckon it's a lower initial fee that rises to 8m should they get promoted etc..

This certainly would be disappointing news "Hey guys, we tried to get Debuchy but we failed...the silver lining is Simpson is signing a new contract" This place will f***ing erupt. Personally, I wouldn't be happy about it with its long-term implications for the RB slot but who knows, could well be a pile of s**** I don't doubt Stifler is genuine about the info he's passed on. It's all over folks. Let's hope we enjoy tonight and look forward to battering Villa on Sunday. HTL

ok im in

fuck that

who says he aint arsed about it,. a lot of fans get confused with 'resting players' and 'managing the squad'. its quite simple, come sunday, (usually its saturday) we play a premiership team who has had 6 days rest. if we field our full strength team tonight we would've had 2/half days rest by the time we play the Villa. im not saying we can't beat the Villa by playing full strength tonight and not bother to squad rotate. but you get the idea, that the opposition who's had a full 6 days to prepare for the same match compared to another team thats only got a few days, has a distinctive advantage.,, no? Perhaps not to those words, but he's stated before this isn't one of his priorities it probably isnt. prem league is always our bread and butter. would you settle for finishing outside top 8 just to win the europa league? i dont know. I would

We didn't even get to contract negotiation with them 2 deals Not the point. The players' agents will know this and will have informed the players they represent about the new tv deal. It's not so hard to imagine players thinking, "why move to England now, when I could possibly get a bigger wage next season" etc.. Plus I'm pretty sure the players and their agents will have a good idea about the range of salaries we'd be looking to offer them.

Does the new tv money kick in next season? If so, could it be that players like Debuchy and Douglas for example, are holding out until next season in the hope that they could earn more money in wages?

These have been my thoughts over the past two weeks. Let's hope so.

Like to see Amalfitano and Marveaux start this game behind Ba. Edit: It's a crying shame the Ameobis aren't fit for this.

It's how Spurs do business somewhat. Always seem to sell for extortionate amounts, and buy for practically f*** all. Not really. Hyperbole, I know. But come on, they could technically end up making a profit having BOUGHT Adebayor 12/13: £38m spent to date 11/12: £8m 10/11: £18.5m 09/10: £32m 08/09: £87m 07/08: £48.5m 06/07: £49m 05/06: £34m 04/05: £16.5m 03/04: £14.2m Fuck me, you go the extra mile to prove a point. Fair enough. Now i'm all:
