Spurs Sign Bentley

I just received a text message from a very reliable source.

Text message reads as follows;

"We've just signed Bentley re! About 9.5 mill rising to 12 mill on apps. Still to take medical".

Well, there you have it. If we're right, then it's great news. If wrong. We do apologise. I am pretty sure that we're right though.

  1. what bollocks
  2. i think its true, there has been such intense speculation over bentley over the past few days. i fucking hope so
    COYS!!!
  3. So you mean to say we have agreed a fee?, because I've never known a player sign an expensive contract before a medical.
    Excellent signing IMO if true, BUT all this is very well and good but pointless if we dont sign a DM. If Zokora is in the team then we may aswell have signed Kaka for all the good it would do.
  4. Not sure if this is true to be honest would love to sign him, just hope were not spending money on extravagancies rather than thins we need like a DM.
  5. their chairman sed the new manager woz making the decsion on he's future so i'll say itz bollocks 2!!!
  6. Yeah i also heard we re-signed martin jol as a DM
  7. This must be a final shot at some credibilty for this website.
    If true I'll salute you and give you's a fair go.
    If not then I wont be able to read anything you ever say again.
  8. Lots of Bentley stuff about at the moment. Very difficult to believe, but you rumour guys are making it very convincing. If this doesn't happen i think i will stop looking at newsnow links unless it is a definite signing.
  9. the first "anonymous" person.
    u r obviously not a spurs fan!
    so why are u writing or interested about this page.
    or why even comment???
    u r just very jealous that we have signed englands future number 7.
    yep bentley will beawsome.
    COYS!!!!

  11. Bull shit!
    9.5 million for an England international. They want at least 15 mil.
    Wishful thinking.
  12. I just posted what I was told.
    I trust this source more than any other also.

    Can see Newcastle making a last ditch effort to gazzump this deal.

    Btw, players sign initial agreements before the medical. It's as pointless as the proper contract they sign I suppose.
  13. It's true guy's. But I've just been told that's it's £11 million though.
  14. I heard the same thing, that we had signed Bentley - earlier today on Harry Hotspur - He say's we have signed Diarra as well and that we are in talks with Rudd Van Nistelrooy??? Check it out and see for yourselves, i would love it to be true although i'm not sure about Diarra?
  15. I love anonymous and is scitzo comments its bollocks we havent signed him because he wont sit on the bentch and wen lennon takes is place he will sulk i promise you lennon and hudds will break into the england team this year we wont need to flog lennon to death with dos santo and bale flying down the left wing and moderics short passes and toms long passes teams wont no wat to do .just get gomes he comes from a wiinig mentality at p.s.v heart doesent we done the young english goaly with robbo from leeds we have had no luck with english goalys walker robbo shite
  16. I think this pants site actually got it right.

    BBC Fivelive have just announced that Blackburn have accepted Tottenham's bid of around £12 million. The player will take a medical and agree personal terms.
  17. "If we're right"...

    doesn't exactly sound confident does it

    and "if we're wrong sorry"

    what a load of shite
  18. love it to be true, we need someone who can provide some good quality balls into the right area's.
    but i not believe it till i see it on spurs site tbh,
    in my eyes just cos sum 'unknown youth' says it so dont mean much 2 me.
    hope so tho
  19. Thanks for that Harry advertisment.

    In future, please make sure to contact our PR office.

    Kind regards

  20. Talksport had this on their 6pm Sports Bulletin.
  21. This is a very bold statement, almost one that can ruin your credibility if not true.

    If it is true fair play for being the first to announce it, but if not consider yourselves history, your either very brave or very stupid
  22. It was on Harry Hotspur first - along with news that the club will announce the signing of Diarra shortly too...
  23. No, you're right. We're not 100% confident as the source that sent the text message wasn't Daniel Levy, Damien Comolli, Juande Ramos, or Bentley himself.

    We're pretty confident though.
  24. Well there you go, Talksport announced it. " Just got a text bollox" at least say where you got it from.

    If Talksport is true, he would be a great addition. He is a boyhood YID as well.
  25. "Well there you go, Talksport announced it. " Just got a text bollox" at least say where you got it from."


    Just what I was thinking. If TS announced this at 6pm, what's to say this site didn't just take that info?
  26. No, you're right. We're not 100% confident as the source that sent the text message wasn't Daniel Levy, Damien Comolli, Juande Ramos, or Bentley himself.

    We're pretty confident though.
  27. contact your pr office????are you for real?? does that mean ring your mum or something....that comment confirmed what i already thought ,you're about 12 lol you may actually be right bout bentley though but hardly first,this has been doing the rounds all day
  28. Ok you heard it here first...

    I just spoke to Daniel Levy's mum who picks up my daughters kids from school!

    Shes is adamant the deal for bentley was done last week but Spurs were not allowed to announce the deal due to some implications regarding his sponsership deals.

    He will have his medicle tomorrow and the signing will be announced on Friday!!!

    Another sweet weekend for the yids!!
  29. i'll believe it when i see him in a spurs shirt which i hope is never, he isnt good enuf, scum reject!
  30. Why do you lot care who announced it first or from where this site gets its news from??

    You all sound like 13-year old loners.

    If the story is true, then great. If not, move on.

    For gods sake, you lot are an embarrassment to Spurs.
  31. whats a medicle?
    more like mircale

    Would love him at the lane but im waiting for the offical news! and this story is dogshite i wont be coming back here again
  32. 8:51, where is your sense of humour?
  33. I'll believe it when spurs official site post it, until then its just speculation.
  34. If it just speculation the headline should be Spurs linked with Bentley - Not that we have signed him! Unless of course it is true - If not then this site has lost all credibility!
  35. can anyone say bentley is worthy of a spurs shirt?
  36. Just been informed that Bentley will be taking his medical on Tuesday morning.

    Regards

    THBN
  37. Well he was the best player on the pitch against us last season ath the lane amd he's worthy of an England shirt so work it out for yourself...
  38. the fella is a yid he aint got no allegiance to the scum and he's more than worthy of a yid shirt,would be a great signing
  39. Call him what you like; cocky, big headed - But one things for sure he is certainly ambitious... exactly the sort of player Spurs need - Great delivery and crosses, the ammunition for the front men will be LOADED!!!
  40. well, is he good enuf for spurs? he is just a poser, a wannabe beckham!
  41. 100% rumour mill. No truth whatsoever.
  42. Why are people asking if hes good enough to wear a spurs shirt!???

    Bentley will be in the team ahead of Lennon, Jenas, Zokora, Hudd, O'hara, Tainio.

    O'hara is not good enough and will struggle big time next season and Jenas is just a penis!
  43. jos bcos he plays for england doesnt mean he is good enuf for spurs.
  44. Actions speak louder than words - And last season his performances spoke volumes - He was one of the top assist leaders in the Prem (11?) & 6 goals to boot.
  45. he's good enough, just i dont believe fuk all thats on this site.
    can anyone tell me why this is the only website that knows bentleys signed?
  46. Although i would prefer Joaquin, Capel or both lol
  47. No it's not the only website, to say that he has SIGNED!!!!!
  48. i mean glen johnson and stewart downing play for england but they wudnt get in the spurs side, am i the only 1 who thinks he isnt good enuf?
  49. How many midfielders do we want!
    The books have got to balance at sometime. If this is true and I say 'if', Lennon is a def gonna. Probably back up north.
    Still not seen anything on any other sites!!!
  50. cool! with him and huddlestone + jenas and lennon im sure we can push for 10th.
  51. this is a load of bollox tbh, sum goooner twat with to much free time
  52. he's got no pace!
  53. last anon another worried rival fan hahaha love it
  54. I hope it's true because then we'll finally have a couple of wingers that can cross. I'm not a big fan of Lennons of late, but we should keep him as an impact player if things aren't going our way late in the games. Just a quick comment about some of you posters, you're an embarrassment to our club. Especially you Dave Smith. Your name would indicate differently, but I sincerely hope, for your own sake, that English isn't your first language.
  55. kaboul going to barca and messi coming to the lane, signed and sealed!
  56. and why is everyone anon?
  57. i think its all bollox anyway!
  58. cud be true cause if he goes to top 4 he wont be playin week in an week out i also heard from another site that we wud be play away to middlesborough first game an it was right so can see no other reason why this cant be right jus wait in see
  59. Why are there so many blogs that purport to have inside information?? What a load of rubbish, end of.
  60. Now now who has been reading to much evening standard putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 50? Oh well it gets a few hits i soppose!!
  61. its official..wikipedia lol
  62. who's a better player, steed or bentley?
  63. stead has beter work rate ,an ackles bently, has that crossin abilty etc id prefer bently be who will be leavin,lennon will be off which im wud not be happy with
  64. If this is true im at abit uneasy at the signing, i feel that he has a attitude of a hoody,and to out spoken, we dont need players just to come to the lane to fill thier pockets only, need more like minded players like modric, good attitude players!!
  65. steed much better mate!
  66. Just found this on Bentleys Wikipedia page, It can be taken with a pinch of salt as Wiki is known to be a bit random with the facts but it proves this story is spreading like wild fire.

    'On the 18th of June 2008 David Bentley signed a 5 year deal with London club Tottenham Hotspur. He was reported to have cost the London club a fee in the region of £13.7 million.'
  67. i think stead will be on bench come start of season, spolied for choice with bale LB or LM
  68. steed gives us nothing i dont want my wingers tackling hes poor not enough goals not enough assists and poor attacking full backs saying that not to fond of bentley
  69. Omg its bloody true!! the deal is done!! 13.7 mill.
  70. wiki has him signed for spurs!! check it out on David Bentley's wiki page!! 13.7 mill
  71. i,ll have u right mate, bentley does remind me of a hoody, he believes his own hype!
  72. he was one of our best players last season an also winger have to tackle an track back an help full backs an he dose offer that
  73. confused i dont see this on wiki
  74. THIS NEWS IS PURE BULLSHIT
  75. look to hes profile an u see club tottenham
  76. Isnt bentley just a shit David Beckham. Where are we getting all this money from? is the jewish gold still paying the bills.
  77. The piece has been pulled from his Wiki page, obviously a bit of creative journalism was going on!
  78. i just dont feel steed offers enough he bottles penalties when the brown stuff hits the fan(PSV) he let zokora for crying out loud take one he scores own goals in quarter finals(sevilla) does naff all in cup finals(obvious game ccf) and for that matter naff all against chelsea arsenal man u or liv with the exception of a goal in the 5-1 in which we can all admit although VERY VERY satifying game it was not there 1st team i just think hes more suited to a bolton or blackburn may aswell give him as part of the deal
  79. confused (wiki) how do i find this although doesnt prove anything im curious
  80. On David Bentley wiki page it has him playing for spurs at the bottom and that he has signed on the 18th June for a fee of 13.7 million. Surely wiki wouldnt make such a bad mistake?
  81. my wiki says club blackburn rovers not spurs
  82. look at right hand side of page at hes profile t says club tottenham ok
  83. look at right hand side of page at hes profile t says club tottenham ok
  84. and for that matter u can edit wiki probably some knob they remove it after
  85. wud u belive it has changed back to blackburn rovers on hes Wikipedia
  86. i think there must be a very sad person out there or just a willfull piss tacker

  109. any of the bloggers here female?
  110. i am, female that is.
  111. goody, want to go out?
  112. oh please!
  113. good to see our female fans getting involved 2 its all in the love of the club i just wish we would stop the negativity amongst fellow yids we should stick by each other and save the negativity for arsenal and comolli lol
  114. If true it is a massive signing for Spurs. Although I thought the premise of the transfer window was to sign a left winger. Aaron can't play left wing... we all know that.
  115. wow anon and anon on a date....i bet the fella looks like herman munster and the bird looks like jo brand what gorgeous children they will have
  116. Podolski Signed!!!!

    Oh fuck..........
  128. whos feargal hunter when he's at home?
  129. oh my god thats nasty!
  130. load of shit for him signing, he is good but spurs still would have no chance in becoming big 4 or anywere near becoming a big club as they are not a big club and never will be. Just poor shit fans for any type of club, embarrasing.
  131. anyone still there?
  132. u must be a gooner cunt!
  133. i fucking hate gooner scum!
  134. both gunners and spurs are shit fans, something in common for the sad cockney bastards
  135. fuck off!
  136. you must be a northern monkey then mate!
  137. sorry but i don't rate bentley!!! just another overpriced & overrated english player. He can hit a half decent cross but what else does he bring to the table??? I hope we stay well clear he's shite!!!!!
  138. northern twat!
  139. bentley is shit!
  140. boo!
  141. he's also an Arsenal reject!!!! don't want him!!! we should b trying to sign that defensive midfielder we so desperately need i think gettin Diarra or Obi Mikel would show we're serious about breakin top 4!!!
  142. hope theres gooners looking at this!
  143. dunno about obi mikel mate.
  144. This site is a laughing stock!

    Honestly...

    We will know when they have signed, when they are wearing the shirt and spokesmen from both sides say so.... Simple!

    These blogs are a complete waste of time...
  145. goodnite
  146. nite..
  147. waste of time for sad cockney bastards with the worst support in the country, just like the fans embarrasing and a waste of time even saying they are fans
  148. top 4 is no chance and never will, to small of a shit club
  149. Does any 1 knows?
    What number shirt Geovani Dos Santos be wearing...??
  150. to "anonymous chelsea west ham goon fan": go to bed. don't you have a job to go to in AM? lol still checking for sunburn out here on the west coast. you only wish you were buying the players we are. wanker
  151. I'll tell you why I am now extremely confident of the news.

    In the past, when we have published a controversial article that may bring about any problems, we receive an email from Tottenham Hotspur asking us to "kindly remove article x".

    Thus far, no email has been received.

    I believe he's as good as signed.

    THBN
  152. he wants to play champs league, not compete in InterToto!!
  153. If this is true its the start of a revolution beacuse we are signing the hottest stuff out there, although I hope this doesnt spell the end for Lennon. If we get rid of Aaron Lennon I will sell my season ticket and I mean it, we cant sell one of Englands few Players who can beat a man with ease. All he need's is a bit of technical training and if them Spanish coaches are doing their job they will turn Aaron Lennon into a world class trickster!!!! On the other hand WELCOME DAVID BENTLEY...Bentley and Lennon, the thoughts of having them both is mouth watering, our squad will be ready to rumble, as long as they gel, I obviously have no worries about the tactics! We need to do something this year I cant deal with no more major player losses! COME ON BERBA THE FANS ADORE YOU, I PROMISE YOUR STILL BE OUR FAVORITE ;-), are you convinced yet, STAY WITH US, someone start a petition, dont let the club sell, he's under contract :0 ......All we need now is good Keeper who can work well wi…
  154. entley isnt worth more than 5/6m and i really hope we dont sign him. And Im pretty sure this site is FansFC but with a comment board. Its always full of exclusives and so far ive never seen one come good, pile of shite
  155. I've just received a Text too it's from Victor Orbangogo telling me i've won the Nigerian lottery, I only have to send 50k to clear taxes. It's a toss up as to which text is more likely to be true!
  156. its people like you that give tottenham fans the name they have...simply dont have a clue! you said you were going to sign, ronaldo, figo, beckham, v.nistlerooy - just find a player link yourselves to them!

    UTTER RUBBISH!
  157. Firstly Mr. 9.23, we have never stated that we signed the players you mentioned.

    In future, leave a name before criticizing us, so that at least we know the name of the numpty that leaves such pathetic comments.

  158. Poshspur,

    Thats why you should change this blog to the style of push and run / caught off side.
    Its alot quicker and easier to leave comments, you'd have alot more people posting during the day while there at work.

    Shorty / Blog Head
  159. ive heard so many rumours about 'done deals' - anyone heard the david villa one?! Capel? The fact is spurs have been linked with so many players but come the big kick off we will still have the likes of jenas and zokora providing the focal point of our team. Lets hope Modric can do the work of 2 men yeah?!
    As for the bentley rumour, lets wait and see i wouldnt be surprised if he did sign but then i ask myself is he really that good? Worth a gamble but not for more than 10 million. COYS
  160. It's also been confirmed on other sites too.
  161. what other sites?? skysportsnews, bbc?? if a bid had been accepted by blackburn, surely it would be on mainstream sports news today. basically it has gone quiet tody and only report i have seen is that villa are going to hijack which i doubt he would choose them over us. also dont knock bentley, well worth 10m, he beats 5 players with a quality ball in the box and assists plenty, lennon can beat people but just doesnt deliver, dont want to sell him but cant be first choice. bentley is good at free kicks, corners and has a great shot, how many corners last season from jenas, keane and tommy hudd hit first man, was terrible, we will have bale and bentley standing over set pieces, cant wait if it happens
  162. THBN exclusive:

    My "source" IN THE KNOW (his initials are DL) tells me that:

    Bentley turns down Spurs for a £50 move to Team Bath, Berbatov sold in swap deal for Diego Forlan, and David Ginola resigns for Spurs from French Club L'Oreal FC (fee yet to be disclosed, but expected to be 3 or 4 bottles of shampoo).
  163. By the way, DL isn't Daniel Levy.
    It's Des Lynam:D
  164. Im strarting to smell bullshit
  165. Thanks for sharing your info with us. No matter what some of these idiots say, it's always worth a few wasted man/hours to speculate about this stuff.
  166. David Bentley has NOT signed for Spurs - nor will he.

    Ramos has told Lennon he is safe for one more season.

    Bentley will end up at Liverpool & is just a matter of time.

    But once again - David Bentley will not sign for Spurs.
  167. This is not true. He has not signed. He's going to another club.

    COYS.
  168. Dear 11:37,

    We have been trying to get a new site launched since 2006. The company that was developing the site (no names mentioned) went bust in 2007 and so we have had to start again.

    We are hoping to get the new site up within the next 6 months or so. The new site will allow users to leave comments much easier than the current Blogger system.

    We have also created a forum section and a members area.

    Other features will also be made available on the new www.THBN.co.uk site.


    Kind regards

    THBN
  169. Will you start publishing articles throughout the season and not just during the transfer windows?

    I think your site could become quite good. You were after all the first spurs blog site and i still think youre up there as one of the best.

    I do hope that we sign bentley as he can provide extra firepower.
  170. I like the banter that goes on on these blog sites. Yours has to be the most contraversial (spelling).

    I think that you should ditch this blogger site asap though as it's fairly unprofessional.

    If you're looking for a professional web development company that can really help you out, take a look at www.DynamicWorks.eu

    They are a great company and have just finalised the number one Greek sports site, www.24Sports.com.cy.

    Cheers

    Jason
  171. Fingers crossed this is just a rumer

    David bentley is well well overated!! yes he can deliver a good ball...but he is over confident and no where near as good as lennon!!

    He hasnt got lennons speed or movent...he is your classic england player...doesnt like to pass and move...would rather boot the ball with his eyes closed and hope for the best...did you see him against trinidad tobago...they werent a very good side...how many times he give the ball away? far to many
  172. you've all got it wrong....


    Spurs have signed Bentley to provide their fleet of company cars!!!!
  173. wat a load of bull shit!
  174. It's true! I have signed!

    Keep it sshhhhh though for now! ;o)
  175. no need to sign for a shit club like tottenham, carear would go nowere playing under fans and a club like that.
  176. hello
  177. hi yiddo
  178. no more schpill about bentley then
  179. should probably address the defensive situation before all of the monies are gone!!
  180. hope its true.. would be a great addition to the ramos revolution!! he is quaility and is alot better then lennon, but i hope lennon stays as he has the potenial to be a great player for spurs and england!!
  181. I just received a text message from a very reliable source.

    Text message reads as follows;

    "Dont believe a word said about Bentley, Spurs are not interested and reports on THBN complete crap, you always get one major bullshit 'we signed him' every season and THBN have got the title for that this year with their poor sources".

    Well, there you have it. Another load of bullshit from a site who have never had a transfer coup in their life. We do apologise. COYS
  182. Ive just received a text message ,it reads "this is poshpsurts mummy,tell him his fish finger sandwiches are ready,+ his fave lolliop,are sitting on the table ,ready for his lunch"

    Run along poshspurt
  183. I'm a black cabby, picked up Bentley and his agent from victoria train station, they asked me to drop them off at WHL. He had on trackies and trainers so I assume it was for his medical.

    Couldn't beleive it, never had anyone famous in the back of meh cab before like!
  184. mmm fishfinger sandwiches.
  185. bentleyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
