I think we can all agree the team did a fantastic job this window, well done everyone involved 👏 👏👏👏👏🫡

Absolutely, great work from all. An honourable mention to tdmickey and others in the support team for adding something by constantly nibbling and getting wound up. Set them an honorary table at the end of season soirée I say.

The CoT is sadly back in its box, the excitement for the summer windows ends tingles down the spine.

Don't worry Nick, the CoT is.like a non mythical Santa or the tooth fairy Nick. It's always there, and appears when the time is right.

Keeping Kyle Walker Peters is pretty amazing. Expected him to go in July to be honest.

 

Surely as a member of CoT you would have known that was not going to happen!

As member of the CoT we know what is going to happen, what we think might happen is a different point. I thought he'd go in the summer too.

If they knew what we knew, they'd have thought the same. Sometimes the dominoes just don't fall.

Been oustanding window quick fact check

correctly called we came second in the race to sign Carvaleho 

Correctly Informed you of the decision to turn the northam into a kop with safe standing 

Correctly told you Doyle was leaving 

Correctly told you we were signind O'Brien Whitmarsh 

Correctly told you were signing Rothwell 

Brooks - called by platinum member CB Fry in December 

Alcarez called by Frannies Tache and me earlier this month 

Holgate to Sheff United 

Abu to Harrogate 

Djalo from Porto in 

Nailed it this window, looking forward to a good old knees up with the team to celebrate and recover from what has been a hectic period, remember there is a huge amount of work going on behind the scenes to bring you all this, it doesn't just start in January. Time for a well earned break. The CoT will return in the summer.

 

If you would like to be considered for future membership of the CoT please send your details and full list of contacts - which will be crosschecked, along with your references for previous ITKness either on this forum or others. We will start the vetting and interview process in time for the end of the season.

 

Regards, the CoT

Id love you give an explanation of that image to these 2 events that aren't anything really.

im sure Ramsay and Abu wouldn't agree that it isn't anything really. For Harrogate Town fans for that matter.

Ramsay didn't get off to the best of starts and Harrogate and i told them he would come good, some of them sneered at me. Now they are all gutted hes going and saying how it was only of matter of time until a bigger came in for him. Finger on the pulse as always. That scouting training paying off.

If you count the crevices in the rocks, the number totals the shirt values of Ramsey and Abu combined, therefore concrete proof. I’d like to congratulate the Cot on their outstanding work, it’s been a truly nail biting window. I expect they have to sign confidentiality agreements, can you imagine actually posting coherent details about potential movements of b team players like Abu, this place would be shut down. Like the Cot have said, this isn’t a place for jealousy, revel in their achievements, i for one can’t wait for the summer window to open, keep up the great work lads, Stella performance.

Perhaps but not sure how Ramsey is Saints related, wasnt he a former player?? Still hasn't given me the explanation of the picture relating to both.

I have been waiting for my invitation to be part of the gang, but it has not arrived especially as a close member of my family has input from the dressing room.

Do I sense a little bit of cynicism there? Surely it would be unfounded. SSN get all their information from that source and are taking up the CoT's revolutionary idea of putting up a random picture and claiming to point towards a transfer deal.

That's an easy thing to claim, but proof is in the pudding. 

Nicks ITK status currently lies at 0%, CoT 100%. From what I can see, you'll be brining nothing to the table. 

Given how keen you are for us to give names and as much information as possible in a public forum, I fear you may have #LooseLips.

Jeez, 3 months of this twoddle in the summer. What an exciting thought.  I do find it amusing that a an adult has managed to keep up this charade for so long. Although i did get a leak from on of his members that their esteemed leader is a shoe in for the next series of Undateables which probably explains why he find sit so much fun. Cant give any more details other than that as i dont want to out for COT source. Remember loose lips sink ships!

When you say ‘adult’, could you clarify your meaning? It’s a bit confusing, a bit like the picture clues, until they are coherently explained unambiguously.

I never knew the tooth fairy was called Nick. Fuck me, the Cot really does know some incredible stuff. Make sure posting information like this isn’t crossing boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed. Maybe you should have reverted to posing some cryptic pictures, as per the cots motto, ‘loose lips’. Or how about mixing it up, post a video dressed as Marcel Marceau and act out the clue through the modicum of mime. This would be a great new angle for the Cot and would keep the thread ‘fresh’, heaven forbid this ever gets stale, where would we get our itk from.

There's more freshness in this thread than a loaf pulled straight from the oven Marky. Long will it continue. 

Personally, I thought a few pics were giving things away. Your ideas, as groundbreaking as they are, are very labour intensive - imagine the complaints if there's a delay in releasing a picture that will allay your fears that things aren't moving in the right direction?! They'd be mutiny.

despite the 100% ITK record, I think the biggest achievement has been getting right under the skin and raising the blood pressure of always/mickey's to almost catastophic levels. 

He can't help himself but continue to stalk with the passive agressive laughing recations.

A bit different admiring a sunset and being amazed that someone stays when you were in the know.

 

Also can you please explain how the riddle below equates to Brooks? I really cant see any of it, there again Im no good at riddles!!!

It's looking like a Blue day for half a great city, when the eagles come home to roost. When the Epiphany comes, or just after, call off the search. The Holy land welcomes a man of the left, name from an ancient trade.

You're really not very good at this nick, are you. 

Eagles = Palace. Palace were interested in Brooks https://onefootball.com/en/news/bournemouth-reject-crystal-palaces-approach-for-three-goal-winger-33575062

Holy land = Isreal, who was a king of Isreal.. David. Welcomes a man of the left. Who's left footed that's just arrived at St Marys... You guessed it, Brooksy boy.

Do we really need to spell it out for you? Before becoming King of Israel David was a shepherd boy, a trade in those times. As for a blue side of the city, a clear reference to the fact Brooks started his career at Manchester City.

Nice thread bump lardy boy, well done.

Nobody is forcing you to read it. The title is even very handily dubbed “Circle of Trust”, which is a little bit of a giveaway as to what the contents might contain. Or maybe that’s too confusing.

I've been running the numbers and this thread is apparently the second most popular one on the forum this year.

So in many way, the COT have completely and utterly failed.
