Speaking hyperthetically. We all know that the Terry saga has reached a very delicate stage. With Chelsea threatening to report City for tapping up, this has the potential to get nasty. I think it's highly likely that we have talked to Terry (either directly, or through a third party), and whether this was at the players instigation or not, we are clearly guilty as you can't speak to players until their club gives permission. I strongly suspect that the only thing stopping Chelsea carrying out their threat is that they have no actual proof to put before the fa. The last thing the club needs now is for a reliable ITK to come on here and say 'Terry is going to hand in a transfer request on Monday'. Not only would this website go balistic, but many other City websites, plus the fact that there are a few Chelsea fans monitoring this site means that this would be all over Chelsea Forums within hours. Clearly, if Terry has informed City of his intentions and requested total confidentiality, and this information finds it's way into the public domain whilst he is still on tour, this would have the potential to piss the lad off in a major way. Hence, the club have kept their cards extremely close to their chest, and if anyone does know anything they have been told to keep their traps shut. Like I say, just a theory lads on a very slow news day, so don't hang me for it please!
