Weird Announcement On The OS

Spurs decided to give us this rather bizarre bit of news earlier today:

"CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT
Posted by Tottenham Hotspur on 6 August 2013 - 15:05PM
Following further investigation into comments made by Club Ambassador, Ledley King, on Sky Sports News last Thursday afternoon, we can confirm that we have indeed found something living in the White Hart Lane pitch over the course of the summer.

Ahead of Saturday’s pre-season friendly with Espanyol, we shall be making a further announcement tomorrow (Wednesday) morning, so please keep an eye on this website to find out more.
At this stage, all we can say is that we are experiencing something of a mini pitch invasion...watch this space!"

Does anyone know what King said to SSN on Thursday?
I feel that there's a hint in the page address, whatever a turfie is.

 

It's probably Kenny Samson!

 

Is it a centre back? It better be a ****ing centre back

 

there was something in the 92live feature. Ledley King mentioned about "something living under there" (the pitch). then sky cut the video off.

I dunno if they went back to WHL to discuss it further, as I didn't see any of SSN's 92 live show. - (I am currently on strike with SSN, but that's another story)

here's the video. it doesn't help with answers to what's going on, but it's a decent watch all the same.

Bale's agent? But no longer living.

 

Voles? Moles? Reporters? Kaboul? or just Hope!

I'm baling out on this one.

 

I have a feeling that it's some sort of stupid promotional thing. Maybe a mascot replacement or something to interest kids.

 

.

 

O come on Spurcat, that's just teasing! Has "Lockdown mode" stretched as far as this?!

 

If it's on the pitch it could be grass, an anagram of Turfies is Surfeit meaning an excess, when their is an excess of grass it needs cutting, the excess grass can be rolled into a BALE.

Ledley announced some NEWs

The opposite of Surfeit is Deficit, to get smaller or to CONTRACT

The words BALE NEW and CONRACT tend to jump out, or perhaps I am reading a little too much into it

 

The club's announcing it tomorrow. We've been given enough, I think.

 

you worked hard there!.hope you are right

 

It's something kiddie related.

Lego maybe.

 

i have no patience!

 

In trouble with the lady now due to laughing in the middle of sopranos.

 

Do you think it's a mole who has been leaking info to the press hence the blackout? Tomorrow? A hanging!

 

My thoughts exactly - although the thought of a new mascot emerging from the pitch would likely terrify kids.

 

A mini pitch invasion...surely a load of Mini's aren't going to be driving all over it??

 

Mini bales?

 

Mini Spurs Smurfs on the Turf, you have to lurf!
