    Not at all ... but I do believe that if you make a bet you should abide by it ... as do you.... obviously<cheers>

  2. You have become as desperate and as needy as Pixie, Bambs!

    I think you should spend your time worrying about our little bet.

    Absolutely.

    Which is why I don't understand anyone making one with Hiag after the first one, especially one that runs for years ffs.

    Fosse’s original bet was that for each season Leicester stay up, HIAG has to change his avatar for a month. But if at any time over the next 4 seasons they are relegated, then HIAG chooses his for 12 months.

    Rather than HIAG having to do 4 months at the end of the 4 years. (Should Leicester stay up)

    That was the bet HIAG agreed to. But as was expected, he tried to wriggle out of it and change the rules when he realised he’d be ****ed at the end of last season.

    Yep, this is the only way to sort this out now. Put it to a poll and let everybody decide <ok>

  8. No, that wasn't the bet I accepted.

    You even posted a link to what I accepted.

    I repeat - I was willing to accept that bet then and I am willing to accept it now.

    It's Bambi who has welched.

    Probably Jose Baldy considering that Spurs encourages mediocre managers who have excelled in winning nothing throughout their careers.

    We'll find out in the next couple of games - we couldn't beat a team where everyone seems to be miserable so lets see if can we beat the Portuguese U21 team and the team with Burnley's old strike force.

    Are you proud of your club for failing to complete their stadium in time as well?

    Getting back on topic spuds never signed anybody because of these factors and these alone.
    A) Spent most of their available monies on extending contracts to prevent their best players jumping ship.
    B) Stadium overspend has risen to over 63% of projected budget.
    Hence why they embarrassingly only offered £20 Million for marquee signing Grealish. Needless to say they got ****ed off and came back with a £25 Million offering which went the same way as the first.

    The story is even funnier then that - we were interested in Grealish at the beginning of the transfer window and were told that Villa would accept around £20m as they were in financial trouble at the beginning of the transfer window.

    We passed on that but Spurs decided they could get him even cheaper and offered £3M + that youth team player who was crap for Villa on loan. Vila rejected that pisspoor bid but rather then up the bid, Levy decided to try to make them sweat and kept it at that

    They then got taken over and Levy had an oh **** moment and offered the £15m they originally wanted and then upped it to £30m including add only to be rejected.

    Levy is the highest paid chairman in the Premier League - he really earned his money this transfer window.

  19. SPURS WIN OPENING THREE MATCHES OF THE SEASON!


    I'm not quite sure when we last achieved that. Some stato out there will, no doubt, oblige.

    This thread isn't looking quite so stupid, now, yeah! How many of you have the balls to apologise to me?

    Poch knows what he's doing - he always has done. I had absolute faith in his decision not to sign players for the sake of it.

    Unless you improve the quality of our entire squad, you don't get in.

    I think that's the message we can all learn from this.
