John Terry [Merged]

[The Fixer]

I thought the tapping up story was an old story. Isn't this just a re-hash of an old story?

These are new reports on 5 live marvin.

the bookies seem to think we have no chance.

And?

And nothing. I'm just saying the bookies think we have no chance if that is ok with you. ffs

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

URG, two questions if I may?

a) Are you feeling positive about this?

and

b) if yes, do you know something we don't?

the bookies seem to think we have no chance.

I saw that as well, but wasn't that before these new 'tapping up' allegations came to light? As a few people have suggested maybe Chelsea leaked the JT staying to the press to put even more pressure on him.

This whole saga seems very complicated, gut feeling is we won't get Terry but think there'll be a few more twists and turns till we find out, after all Chelsea aren't back from the US for a fair few days are they?

 

[baggy]

Right, this thread has exceeded 1000 pages, therefore it's safe to assume that JT will be coming to us so lets close this thread eh?

Well if he is still 1/10 to stay by morning, I'm putting a bet down.

 

[petrovs right boot]

I didn't think we were going to pursue any case for tapping up, at least that's what Ancelotti said (I think). It really isn't worth pursuing it even if there is something we don't know about.

well said son a voice of reason!

zzzzz

It might just be Chelsea's last throw of the dice.

"Stay or we will report you to the FA and there will fine you a 100k and your never play for England again al la Cashly".
If they are resorting to this then Kenyon is a bigger knobhead that I took him for.

And what is more, you will be reported to Gordon Brown, Barack Obama, the European Court of Human Rights and the United Nations.

I can see that any inquiry into tapping up would be a minefield for chelsea if he stayed, but it's surely an idle threat, so, sadly I don't think it tells us anything about Terry's fate.

I mean, if they were going to do it, they'd just have done it, right? It was first mooted in the sundays, so what's keeping them from making the complaint? If terry is 1/10 to come to us, I have chelsea actually making a complaint as a 10/1 shot, at the very least.

 

[riley347]

am i ok to start getting disappointed now after pages of no facts?????.....or is there a glimmer of hope?????.....

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

publicly hughes and city have done as much tapping up as lampard cole ballack and essien! the super power that is chelsea seem to be a bit be-fuddled by city! chelsea started this mega rich club, "we'll sign anyone any price tap up who we like when we like shit" . . . . . . . were playing by there rules they've got to deal with it . . . . . tossers

I.

It's what it says about their state of mind, isn't it in terms of their overall attitude. Something is annoying them.

All that means is more money is being bet on him staying rather than going. It has nothing to do with what's actually going on, only with the bets being place.

I know it's pedantic but he is 1/10 to stay, not to go :)

 

[goat boy]

I hope you're not reading too much into anything I am writing on here!

I do not know whether to feel positive or not re Terry right now. And no, I don't know anything new on the situation.

Very well. Ta.

----

I still can't really see this happening. I don't think I'd be arsed if it didn't, I have reservations about it.

 

[riley347]

i,d have reservations about ANY side paying the 'reported' 1m per month.....

Probably a reaction to the complete and utter bollocks in this AM's lying newspapers.

oh yeah. that was always the point for me, right from the word go. revenge for what happened with sturridge, and the stories that they were sniffing round 'binho in january :)

if this is the worst they can do.....

one thing that struck me earlier was that if he stays on a new contract, and several others demand an extra 20k p/w on the back of that, then chelsea will be forking out huge amounts just to keep their existing squad, at a time when they should be spending their money bringing in young blood.

 

[Timbobs]

Yea, I hear she's going to join a Chelsea forum.

Irony.

I don't like Chelsea because Chelsea aren't City. And because you are all twatzoids.

I was sticking up for you, I was pointing out that he's saying you're obsessed with Chelsea, but he's a Chelsea fan who has joined a City forum.
