  1. Which part of it is gobbledegook ?
  2. Thats the point of appointing a proper backroom team that has a job of finding players that suit the system. The same as we have. When all were talking about what formations Koeman would be playing with us I pointed out that it wouldnt be vastly different to what we were already playing. Its no mistake that Adkins, Poch and Koeman all play in similar ways (though with a few differences) whilst you look at Spurs and the differences in tactics between Sherwood, Redknapp, AVB and Poch. What Spurs need is continuity, and for that you need a recruitment team that bring in the right players and staff (that transfer comittee everyone hated a few years ago ) which I imagine is why he has brought in Mitchell, and no doubt some more to bolster that backroom department. Most modern forward thinking clubs will operate this way, as, like you say, otherwise it just ends up a mess with eaxh manager wishing to buy players that dont necessarily fit the system of the previous etc
  3. Sorry Have I missed something, what the **** is the black box ?
  4. Its definately a shame as he is obviously highly thought of in the game and by us. You cant blame him entirely though, Levy has made his intentions known that he requires a shake up of his scouting department and that would certainly be an excited prospect. Add to that the fact that they are a bigger club and the bright lights of london. I cant blame him too much really, though Id suggest working under Levy wouldnt be my ideal port of employ. Will it damage us ? In reality I dont know if any of us actually know. I imagine he has had a hand in all of our recruitment and the setting up of our scouting networks, my immediate thoughts are those of losing somemore of that if Mitchel walks out of the door. It also has the potential to damage our recruitment this close to january though Id like the think the majority of target aquisition is done. Id say we are pretty good at recruiting the right people, though that may or may not have been through Mitchel. Overall Im not worrying too much, people move on, we have recovered before. Lets not lull ourselves into some false reality in which you can have an exodus often and survive, we did tue extraordinary over the summer, I wouldnt condone a continuation of that policy
  5. Very true scotty, footballs full of grade a w*nkers. The game has no morals. I expect Mr Evans to play his first game after xmas
  6. You are the one coming across as an utter tool here pal, hope that helps. Seriously what does it matter if there's the odd spelling mistake and why the need to get all high and mighty about it? Pathetic Deppo always has been a funny ****er
  7. Turns out idiots earn good money then, whodafunkit
  8. Alternatively I could pick up minor spelling mistakes on what was largely a rushed post on a mainly meaningless internet forum but frankly I have too much else to be getting on with to be worried about such trivial things. Whatever turns you on I suppose
  9. Ashton Haarland Holden (all but)
  10. Its a forum, Im writing on an Iphone
  11. Id love us to sign him, I personally think he is better than Lukaku
  12. Nobody owes anything to anyone We paid him money, he performed
  13. I think personally its a good idea to invest, at the end of the day if your are getting contributions from the taxman and your empoyer then why not ? Do any of us know what the future holds ? Not yet, maybe there will be a crash, maybe not. All I can do is speculate that the pension I am putting money in to will be enough when I retire. Ive been paying in since I started with my company 7 years ago now, I also pay into the sharesave and SIPs schemes that they run at work, as realistically that will be worth more than my pension in the future. I also made the decision to buy a house at 20, it was hard being on the bones of my arse at that age but its worked out, Ive been able to upgrade twice now and happy in the home I bought 4 weeks ago now. Nobody knows the right answer, but I think its worth speculating at least a bit into your future
  14. Exactly this, been saying it for years.
  15. Plumb
  16. Not overly fussed by him. Not really better than the apparantly crap Townsend which makes me wonder why many on here are happy to take the punt. Depending on the price Id give him a go. Id rather we spent the extra on Memphis Depay though
  17. Just to put my quick views on here; - Rape is abhorant - There are levels to any crime as evidenced in the sentancing - Evens has done his crime, whether he thinks he is innocent is irrelevant. As a man (or female KRG) in the public eye then he should be setting a better example, and as such I will find it dissapointing if he is signed (as I was with Hughes)
  18. Of course ads influence people, Im not going to sit here and say that Ive never been influenced by an advert as realistically, whether it be subconcious or active influence, I have. That said, supermarket wise, I shop based on where I live, I used to live in Sholing, so I shoped at Tesco (i quite like tesco), now Im back in Fair oak I shop in the tesco petrol station and Sainsburys. The xmas ads are ok, Im not overly bothered by them. To me it seems a massive waste of cash for what in all likelyhood doesnt make a lot of difference to sales (if we are using saintsweb as the demographic.. I know pap, I know..) The complaining to the regulator I just find, as I said, tragic. Some people just seem to want to make decisions for other people as evidenced in the Brand/ross case. If people dont like it, dont watch it.
  19. What the hell are you going on about ? You seem to be the only person making the arguement ? Where is he a rape apologist ?! And what the hell does 'your male tears sustain me?' Are you some sort of feminist super warrior now ? Or do you just like having sometging to get upset about ?
  20. I find it pretty ironic people having a mini meltdown over other people saying they like christmas ads. Get the **** over it, Im not on facebook but surely to christ if you dont like what someone says, then ignore it, or unfollow or whatever. You expressing your opinion over someone elses opinion is as tragic as it is hypocritical tbh. Some people like the ads, some dont, wow, welcome to the world. What is society coming to anyway ? People conplaining to ofcom etc about their displeasure at an advert! Some people really need to reasses their life
  21. Its the fickle nature of football. He left therefore he must be crap.
  22. I find it quite ironic that Dibden is labeling another poster a potential internet warrior. Keep the side show going Id say. Its not like the thread has anything concrete to work on anyway. The paper releases a story on how Spurs want to poach our head of recruitment, hardly surprising considering his teack record and spurs lack of personel. In the mean time a certain poster says hunter has left, no evidence, and suddenly we get reams and reams of why the newspapers are against poor old saints. Its all a bit ropey isnt it ? If he had left, and there was a 'destabilizing element' to the media (genuine lol there btw) then it would be all over the back pages
  23. Pretty sure he wasnt defending it, just pointing out that there are a multitude of weirdo's on social media and especially twitter.
  24. Fair do's Ive only have read this thread in all fairness. A lot of drivvel over these pages
