Or maybe not

Sky Sports News are now reporting a bid of undisclosed size for Bent from Spurs, although some of their fans don't want him at any price (preferring Defoe), while others are only intersted in a bargain basement deal - which was what Spurs were offering at one time: a single figure in millions, plus all the unsold double triumph tat we wanted.

It keeps the pot boiling. But I think Pards likes the Mullins aspect of the Irons deal which is why I still think it is the most likely outcome.
