Yes yes, by now we all know what to expect from the press between the months of May and September, but for some reason many of us continue to get very emotional about all the tittle-tattle that continuously fills the back pages - and more specifically zooms round the interweb.So this is a call for peace. Some of the vitriol I read is nothing short of disturbing. Sure, THBN might publish an article that says someone has had a medical, of course Harry Hotspur might claim that Bent is a done deal, but experience shows us that those who claim "inside knowledge" often end up with egg on their face - but the point is that they don't care.
My mind is drawn to one Harry Harris of the Express. This genius spends months publishing all kinds of "facts" about what will happen in football's future, and then bangs on relentlessly when he finally gets one right - even including those most sacred of newspaper graphics, the cut out of an old headline that proves "you heard it here first".
Well I have news for you Harry, if you throw enough shit, some of it is bound to stick.
So my advice is to just chill out; enjoy the ride. Dream about David Villa snubbing Liverpool and Chelsea for Spurs, drool over the possible partnership of Berba and Torres and by all means get excited about having someone of Luis Figo's undoubted class being happy to take a pay cut just so he can be useful in our UEFA Cup run.
Just don't get angry about it, life's too short.
As for your chums here at SpursClub, rest assured that we will never completely make up a transfer story just to get a shed load of hits from NewsNow, we simply have more integrity than that.
However, there's this friend of my brother-in-law who met the groundskeepers son in a pub in Chigwell recently, and he swears that he overheard a conversation on the tube between 2 estate agents and that one of them had been showing Ronaldinho round a house in Enfield.
Expect a statement from the club in the next 2 weeks, and remember, you heard it here first...
