ITK Thread

My guess would be because there are very few ITK out there now, let alone one's who would publish stuff on a forum. There will be plenty when the window opens, because it's easy to fabricate stuff then
 
I remember one of the very few decent ITK's out there, think he was called Dragon1. He basically a couple of seasons ago posted something along the lines of he'd been told by the club that if he continued to post anything on forums that he would no longer be welcome to internal events involving the players/board etc. So he stopped posting. I think since Redknapp the club have been working hard to stamp out leaks and very few get decent Spurs ITK anymore and the best recent Spurs ITK has actually come from ITK's from other clubs.
 
Yes Dragon1 was a good ITK, along with a few others I havent seen post for a good year or two now. This new collection of ITKs talk nonsense....

We've had such a big change in personnel too - well known blabber-mouths like Kemsley, Redknapp and Sherwood are all gone. The new regime of Poch and his backroom staff aren't likely to have old friendships with fans or tabloid journalists in this country.

The two moderate leaks (i.e. nothing compromising tends to come from them, but stories break first from them) we know about are Baldini to Di Marzio and Josh Levy to Stobart.

I don't remember there being a news breaking piece of ITK for 3 or 4 years now
 
(Genuine) ITK will mostly come from someone who knows a player or an agent, but even then it's speculation and opinion 90% of the time.
 
But how much do those players or others know about who we're signing?
Very little I assume. As I have opined in the past, ITK is irrelevant now as there are journalists who do get real information that are closely connected to clubs. They say stuff on twitter and in papers so the rumour mill is always ahead of anyone who does get a snippet here and there.

For me ITK is tradition and fun and interesting. But not serious.

That's the key - X in talks to sign a new contract, Y talking to Hull - or whatever, stuff like that is great.

But most of the crap stuff from sites like COYS and SO is professing to have a complete overview of our transfer strategy

Yeah, you know when someone pretending to be ITK says stuff like "priorities for the summer are a CB, CM, LW" is *******s, as it could only come from the very top table.
 
There was only one person I knew was ITK, was unknown. I asked her for a bit of ITK one morning and she told me that Deco was going to sign for Chelsea that evening. There was nothing in the media and nothing on any MBs anywhere. She told me she told one other person on here and it was some guy that was right into Spanish football and was involved in the media side and worked in Spain, she said he didn't believe her and he had links to certain people in the media and had done work on la liga on sky. Apparently they chatted a lot on PM. Cannot remember his username. But he knew his stuff on Spanish footie. Anyway 5pm Sky Sports breaking news had Deco arrive at Chelsea to sign.

Think she mentioned she worked for a high profile agency in London. She used to say anyone really ITK wouldn't put it on MBs.

Really? Midfield is a pretty important area that needs strengthening with someone like Schneiderlin. Very short sighted if we don't at least bid for him. Letting him go so easily to the scum would break my heart.

I think Poch might sign and then use Moreno in CM, with Fazio-Verts developing so well at CB at the moment. 2 birds 1 stone and all that.
