Went out for he afternoon and came back to find 6 new pages on this. I just knew it wasn't be good.

But at least we've still got bigmikes mega mental meltdown to look forward to, right?

I don't know whether to take @thegylfisig seriously or not.



If genuine the tweets don't suggest he is coming here though.

þakka þér allir, akstur til London núna!

thank you all, driving to London now!

Looks very fake to me. Although the kindergarten picture is slightly bizarre.

There is something I am clinging on to. Not only that IcelandicStokie is wrong (what are his sources? how do we know they're not just like all these randomers on Twitter?), but everyone thinks it's Spurs now because of BBC reporting it, but look what it says:

They hope to complete the £8m deal by the end of this week, but the player has yet to agree personal terms.


For me this changes nothing from this morning, when we all had hope. I'm gearing myself up for major disappointment, but any hope I can grab I'll take it

Why would we "withdraw" from negotiations? Surely, we're all just waiting for Gylfi to make up his mind - so if he decides on Spurs or Liverpool we don't need to "withdraw" - he's made his choice. Reports haven't suggested he's wanting any club to up the ante, merely that he's making his mind up. So, I'm not giving up yet.

Ian Royal Because they offered more money, secretly know who the manager will be, offer European football and guaranteed starts?

At a guess


AVB will be the new Spurs manager - all tied up but can't be officially announced yet as it will affect his compensation from Chelsea.

Don't understand that either. They sacked him, he had x amount left on his contract - they owe him, whether he gets another job straight away or not, surely?

South American journo on twitter suggesting that Villas-Boas was offered manager's job at Sao Paolo, but the offer was withdrawn as he said he would only be interested in taking over from January 2013. If true, doesn't suggest he is definitely on his way to Spurs.

I could be wrong but I think Icelandic Stokester specifically said Gilfy had told RFC he was not going to come here. Sounds a bit unlikely at this juncture but there it is.

JF is breaking something tomorrow. Rumour has it it's wind! He's had chuff all on Gylfi and now it's about to break nationally, he gets something (confirmation we're out of the running btw)

He also has an update, which if you post on here isn't an update, on Pog.

I guess this shows why Fordham doesn't go running his mouth off at the first hint of a story to try and keep some kind of journalistic credibility.
