  wow what an article 10 out of 10 for you. just simply amazing.

• 2 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:37 am

  i work at spurs so i know that you are making the story about ferdinand up. If you are going to have a site at least write something worthwile rather than just copying what is on newsnow. a bid was never made for farfan or ronaldinho!

• 3 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:40 am

  also the headline is a bit misleading considering we have signed dos santos and modric with an even bigger name to sign by the weekend that will really make you look stupid!

• 4 jonthespur // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:41 am

  Hope we dont get Jar Jar Ferdernand.
  he is no better than what we have..

• 5 ollyparklane // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:41 am

  Modric, Bale, Berbatov, Woodgate, Hutton… Yeah, no one wants to come to Spurs, you fucking gooner knob jockey

• 6 ollyparklane // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:43 am

  Sorry, forgot Jonny Two Saints as well. Yids

• 7 Ted // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:46 am

  Because we don’t just want ANYone to play for us. That’s WHY.

• 8 Ian C // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:47 am

  ‘Why won’t anyone come and play for Tottenham?’: WTF?!?!?!?!?

  We’ve already signed 3 players: Modric, Bostock and Dos Santos. I don’t think any other Prem team has that many yet?

  We are renowned for putting in a hopeful bid or two. You don’t ask; you don’t get!

  Also, you have to remember that we’re building a team; obviously Eto’o can only play in a team where it’s all pre-built.

  What is it with players these days, they get so up themselves that feel everything but Champs League is below them. I’d rather not have these people who aren’t willing to put the work in at my club.

• 9 ShelfSide // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:47 am

  Ermmmm…do the Modric and Dos Santos ring any bells you muggy twat?

• 10 Ben // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:49 am

  Excellently thought out article. I want to be a journalist.

  Paul, clue as to who please?

• 11 Ian C // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:50 am

  You should change the name of your site from ‘thespoiler’ to ‘theretard’. your miss-informed and clueless!

• 12 Ilikepancakes // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:52 am

  Everyone on this website is now dumber having read this article, I award you no praise, and may God have mercy on your soul.

• 13 vic // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:52 am

  are you an arshole idiot

• 14 Settingson // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:52 am

  Who is this clown that wrote the article?

  Olly hit the nail squarly on the head:

  ‘Fucking gooner knob jockey’

  for some reason that has made me laugh!

  We have signed one of the biggest talents in Europe and you say nobody wants to play for Spurs? Dipstick!

• 15 Yidskin // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:57 am

• 17 mike // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:59 am

  Modric & Dos Santos mate. What a stupid article. Sad little boy who supports eith Arsenl, Chels or W Ham

• 18 Champ Kind // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:00 am

  Paul T, who is the mystery man signing up? And do Spurs let every member of staff know about their dealings in the transfer market? Can I go and ask the guy at the club shop?

• 19 Ilikepancakes // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:00 am

  well PAUL T, i hope your right because if we signed 3 of the best young talents in Europe i would most likely shit my pants

• 20 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:01 am

  capel is as advanced as dos santos. they didnt want to release information about dos santos but barcelona ad dos santos himself forced there hand by leaking the details of the deal.

• 21 Champ Kind // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:03 am

  So why are you releasing the information if you work for them??!!

• 22 davspurs // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:04 am

  what a stupid article if robbo had a played for any top team last year they would be in the middle of the table and justto take as an example the last five games in witch our defence was changed in every game while utds just one vidic through injury and we had to play a 21 year old kaboul in is fist season with a goaly that conceded at every free kick every corner and from 30 yards plus any team would suffer when we had king and his experiance the team was different. Look at utd without ferdinand and vidic and vander sar playing shite what would utd be like like not very good i bet we finished with 66 goals with a keeper in bad form from the start of the season robbo complained in the world cup that he dident like the ball and he showed us why all season he couldent keep hold of it whos the spoiler robbo

• 23 rob // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:04 am

  capel aint better than dos santos or modric??!!!! and he aint a big name!!!

• 24 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:05 am

  champ kind. funny guy. I just wrote out a long reply to your question but thought better of it and deleted it.there are very few leaks to the press since kelmsly left and staff can be fired for leaking what they do know to the press. that is why it makes me laugh when mickey mouse web sites make up stories linking us with players especially when i know it is bollox. enjoy the coming season fellow yids!

• 25 Wunian // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:07 am

  http://www.oleole.com/blogs/harryhotspur/posts/a-keeper-and-a-striker-on-the-cards-1

  me thinks that the signings are going to happen…. a lot of enquiries made however thats all they are!

  every team gets rejected at some point by some player or another…

  we managed to get berbs instead of united, we got gazza instead of united, we got bostock instead of chelsea, the list could go on…..

  ive noticed that the spoiler seems very anti-spurs?

  Paul T, my Mum’s old school friend’s personal dog groomer’s uncle’s daughter’s teacher at school’s cousin’s person she sits next to on the train every morning works for Spurs too and they said Anton has a medical today. More trustworthy source…

• 27 vic // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:08 am

  paul t , how long have you worked at spurs ?
  please reply .

• 28 Champ Kind // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:12 am

  PaulT, the fact that you can get fired for leaking this info doesn’t explain why you are doing it! It makes it seem like a bad idea!

  What more can you tell us about your colleague Kemsley, or ‘Kelmsly’ as you refer to him? Why were there so many leaks to the press during his reign?

• 29 James Sturiienko // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:15 am

  Ok, Paul T. You may well work at Spurs, you may well be correct in the assumption that Capel is signing but I promise everyone on this page, you didn’t that information from anyone inside the club. I have a very close family relation who has been extraordinarily good friends with Clive Allen and a host of other players from their QPR days. Clive Allen continually promises everyone who asks about the club that HE knows nothing about any future transfer dealings. If one of our most important members of staff doesn’t know diddly squat about the goings on in the transfer market, I very much doubt you do. I am pretty sure Mr Allen would not mind me mentioning his name on here, I have pictures of me sitting on his knee while he is dressed up in a santa suit from back in 1985 when I was 6 years old, after all, I have just confirmed that Levy’s policy of secrecy is working!!!!! What do you do at the lane? Work the pie stand?

• 30 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:15 am

  vic. have worked there for the past 5 years and left my job last week. I am not interested in trying to prove who i am. someone asked who we were signing so i told them. Take it with a pinch of salt if you like. Its no skin off my nose.

• 31 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:20 am

  yawn. why would clive be involved in first team signings. he manages the reserves. he has no say in who signs players. There are lots of people less important than clive at the club who would know about such things. do you really think levy is in charge of booking flights , sending faxes, or organising comollis transport when speaking to and identifying players.

• 32 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:21 am

  champ kid. bit petty picking up on spelling mistakes

• 33 Nigel Winterburn // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:22 am

  Even I know Spurs have signed Modric, Dos Santos and Bostock. It’s like saying will Wenger ever sign a French African? Er yeah

• 34 Ilikepancakes // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:25 am

  PAUL T, why were going out of your way to read into news that you apparently are already aware of?

• 35 vic // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:26 am

  paul t
  thanks for the info .
  hope your right would be a great sighning

• 36 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:31 am

  ilikepancakes. i went out of my way to dismiss it for the rubbish it is.

• 37 Abe // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:36 am

  Not the best headline especially with Modric and dos Santos having signed. Looking at the likes of West Ham, newcastle, Blackburn etc they would be over the moon with these players. Sometimes an agent makes an approach and the player thinks the club wants to buy him. Remember Ramos in Jan said he turned down 9 players.

• 38 Gav // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:44 am

  I have heard stories linking us with capel from a couple of spurs sites that i am registered to. I knew they were in for him but didnt realise just how advanced they were.

  Rob, you know little about football if you dont think capel is a big name . He has the potential to be truly world class.

  Paul t, as soon as you think you are doing people a favour by passing on information they will jump down your throat either calling you a liar or demanding more info. I had never thought about the people around the club who organise transport etc, i suppose they would be privy to certain player deals. do you know of any other players we are in for or who have knovked us back.

• 39 Ilikepancakes // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:45 am

  well if that is the truth then that was very kind of you.

• 41 corp Jones // Jun 10, 2008 at 11:31 am

  Paul T, thank you.I read all the crap that comes up on Newsnow searching for little snippets from people in the Know, you just made my day,thanks!!

• 42 James // Jun 10, 2008 at 11:32 am

  FFS! Hey guys if you don’t believe PaulT, then dont believe him. Why feel the need to question the guy’s integrity. I read through all these bullsh*t transfer stories, if it happens it will be on the official TH site, simply as. Until then read, dont read, believe or dont believe. But get off the blokes back. Anyway PaulT was Levy’s hairdresser!

• 43 The Entire Forum // Jun 10, 2008 at 11:34 am

  We love Sportingo and their associated sites, great stories full of real facts, surprised they didn’t chuck a racist comment in there to finish off.

• 44 Brooklyn Hotspur // Jun 10, 2008 at 11:44 am

  Was this article written by Wenger’s mum?

  “Jefferson Farfán has become the latest player to shun a move to White Hart Lane. The striker confirmed that he received an offer from Tottenham, but yesterday chose to leave PSV for Schalke instead.”

  What this means is Spurs probably inquired about the price only to be put off by the fee. The player then mentions our name after moving to the giant club Schalke (lol) to court favor with his new teams fans. Good for him and even better for us!

  Bale, Hutton, Gunter, Modric, Bostock, Dos Santos…….and more to come.

  Quite frankly despite the fact this story is a pile of shite I’d love players like this to keep rejecting us!

• 45 James Sturiienko // Jun 10, 2008 at 11:52 am

  ok Paul, Clive Allen is a first team coach and a youth development leader. He is good friends with Poyet and I imagine since he was pretty much the only member of staff that Ramos retained. I think he would probably have some clue as to who we were signing. I wouldn’t say anything personally, it would not be right but he has given people I know extremely accurate information long before anything appeared in any of the media. Levy and John Alexander are extra tight lipped with regard to transfers, they tell no-one at the club until the time comes for paperwork to be administered. And as a matter of fact, I do know who books Levy’s hotels and Flights, they don’t work for Tottenham Hotspur Football Club

• 46 Sean // Jun 10, 2008 at 12:17 pm

  Well…yeah…like Modric, Dos Santos and Bostock, already this year. Exclusive, i can reveal that Spurs find it so difficult to attract players that in some games last year they finsihed with 3 players on the field (cue cheap and petty GoonerScum jokes).
  Obviously, like, ‘cos’ like Manure suffer form the same problem, as Aaron Ramsey has snubbed them…indeed i can reveal that Ronaldo has informed Slur Alex that he is jumping ship ‘cos if the current trend continues it will only be him and a reserve goal left at a wind blasted Old Trafford!
  Shut up!

• 48 Dusty // Jun 10, 2008 at 12:33 pm

  none of this matters, it dont matter whether spurs buy 100 mil worth of players, or nobody at all, they will still finish mid table, same every season! not likely to get any better with ramos the cardboard cut out either ha ha pub club

• 53 PAUL T // Jun 10, 2008 at 1:41 pm

  OK JAMES, so nobody in the club apart from levy ramos and commoli knows who we will sign. nobody else in the club is involved and these 3 carry out everything to do with transfers from start to finish. there arent any other scouts, secretays accountants, financial advisors, admin etc that are involved. i dont doubt you know clive and i couldnt give a monkeys if you do but you are very small minded if you think cos clive doesnt know , or he hasnt told you, nobody else is in the loop. There were plenty of people on spurscommunity who knew about the dos santos signing weeks before the papers got hold of the stoey. I guess clive must have been in on that one and let them know.

• 58 davspurs // Jun 10, 2008 at 9:33 pm

  hello paul are you the paul of news now who said we have signed david villa and its going to be let out of the bag after the euroes its a done deal and capel is not signing for spurs we are keeping lennon and capel will not sit on is arse in freezing britain and eto is not comming because he was shite against utd and wouldent play for 70 grand a week so the russion robbing bastard will pay him 120 thousand pounds to sit with that other big named player mr shevicantscorov

• 59 funkman // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:44 pm

  PAUL T, I hope your right with this news coz the boys class. Any chance you got word b4 you left that we’d agreed to sign Villa after Euro 08???

• 60 paul spurs // Jun 10, 2008 at 10:47 pm

  what a complete tw*t, the worst article of the year???

• 61 PAUL T // Jun 11, 2008 at 8:10 am

  davspurs, different paul. funkman, villa hasnt signed a contract. he has been watched on numerous occasions along with another 12 players. wether they will go in for him, i dont know. I know of a few players they are talking to but i am a spurs fan also and wouldnt want to jepordise any deals. Ben has already taken information on here and passed it on as his own info on ftl, so i am wary about saying to much. I only gave capels name cos it is a done deal.

• 62 Crewie // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:12 am

  Dear me - a poor, inaccurate article designed merely to try and wind up Spurs fans.

  1) 3 players already HAVE signed for Spurs, including 2 ‘big’ names.

  2) You have NO evidence that bids were even made for the players you state - you are just recycling rubbish fron the tabloids.

  Why bother to write anything if this is the best you can do?

• 63 Brick Tamlin // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:15 am

  Crewie, think you answered your question in your first sentence. Uber sensitive Spurs fans are so easy to wind up!

• 64 Dan Mac // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:31 am

  Why does everyone say Uber instead of super these days? What’s wrong with English?

  (thought I’d discuss this as there’s no football story here to discuss)!!

• 65 Brick Tamlin // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:34 am

  I like ‘Uber’, I think it’s one level above ’super’. Plus it’s a bit more continental and sophisticated and that.

• 66 Dan Mac // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:40 am

  and a bit less camp I think

• 67 Juande Ramos // Jun 11, 2008 at 9:59 am

  Ahh, yes, we sign good players, Dos Santos…class, Modric…world class, we sign Capel soon.

  There is a Frenchman playing for Callais United in Ligue 8 but Arsene is offering him a job. Stop the argument on thei Arsenal fan site. Get a job. Buy Tickets

• 68 Avram Magic // Jun 11, 2008 at 10:06 am

  How many times have all you ‘Modric is world class’ proclaimers actually seen him play? Are you diehard followers of the Croatian league or basing it all on his performance against England?

  A Macedonian player called Artim Sakiri had a class game against England so West Brom signed him and he flopped. Hey, at least they didn’t blow £17 million though.

  He didn’t look world class against Austria. I’m going to stick my neck out and say he’ll prove more Rebrov than Berbatov.

• 69 Juande Ramos // Jun 11, 2008 at 4:05 pm

  Hey Avram, wind the neck in, I hear David Evans is available, never heard of him, he is a member at Eversleigh, tipped for England.

  Sorry should point out he is a diver, 10m board, but I thought that was what you liked.

• 70 King Smuel // Jun 14, 2008 at 1:21 am

  yeah…except Modric (who looks to be the biggest young talent at Euro 08) and Woodgate both turned down better salaries at Newcastle to join us..?? Not to mention Bent and West Ham at the beginning of last season??

  Dont really know anything about Spurs or football in general do ya mate??
