irishFS, I'd like to introduce you to a brand new feature on BigSoccer. It's called "Private Messaging."

Actually, I appreciate Brian's work because he posts from a lot more sources than the two you listed. Sure it can get overbearing at times, but it's better than having to search every source for information.

Correct. Should I listen to all the people who appreciate coming to BigSoccer to have the articles and days news right in one place or one or two people complaining? Tough choice that is...

The reason there isn't much discussion going on in this forum is because there aren't too many Spurs fans posting. It seems in other forums I post news and a great conversation follows. But of course in forums that have low-traffic there is going to be less. Instead of complaining it would be far more productive to start some discussion yourself.

That "your posting is knocking threads down," is complete BS.

Thanks, Andy. Glad I can help. I appreciate your posts in the Yanks Abroad forum as well.

instead of posting 5 threads about everything why don't you keep a days news thread or when you have follow ups put it in that thread? that's my point. there just gets to be so many i don't even bother.

This is a good idea, too. This seems a lot easier than scrolling all over trying to keep up with what's happening. Also, after reading some of these articles, there isn't always a lot to discuss.

Hey man, I wasn't complaining, I think its cool. But I feel it'd be better served under one thread. A 'Transfer Rumours ' thread or something.

I guess it's a little different over here in England where all the speculation is so intense and in-your-face it just begins to get on one's tits.

I appreciate your sterling efforts to spread the Spurs gospel to those who otherwise might not have the opportunity to find/see it.

One other thing, Morientes is alleged (in Spanish papers), to be backtracking on his earlier comments about Spurs being too small to match his ambitions. Could be crap but is vaguely interesting.

For truly sincere Spurs news try the Evening Standard site. It seems to have all the latest on all the London clubs and its sports news is rarely false.

Cheers guys!
