Joe Dolce cryptic itk

[1990Hotspur]

I quite like tryingto discipher these cryptic clues, so here's my guess for the latest one.


Quote:

I once saw Joe Dolce sing, early doors.

Joe Dolce is an American singer born in Ohio and his most famous song is the humorous Italian based song "Shuddappa your face".
This seems pretty easy to me. American singer + Italian based song = Rossi.
I don't get the early doors part, could be just that he reckons it's a close thing.

Alternatively it could be what Cudicini is telling Luka to do!!!!!

[Musashi]

The telling clue is actually the lyrics of the song.

'Allo
I'm-a Giuseppe

I got-a something special-a for you
Ready?
Uno
Duo
Tre
Quatro!
When I was a boy
Just abouth the eightth-a grade

Mama used to say: "Don't stay out-a late
With the bad-a boys
Always shoot-a pool

Giuseppe going to flunk-a school!"
Boy
It make-a me sick
All the t'ing I gotta do

I can't-a get-a no kicks
Always got to follow rules

Boy
It make-a me sick
Just to make-a lousy bucks

Got to feel-a like a fool

And-a mama used to say all-a time:
What's-a matter you? Hey! Gotta no respect

What-a you t'ink you do? Why you look-a so sad?
It's-a not so bad
It's-a nice-a place

Ah
Shaddap-a you face!
That's-a my mama. I can remember!
Big accordion solo!
Ah ! Play dat again! Really nice
Really nice!
Soon-a come-a day
Gonna be a big-a star
[ Lyrics from: ]
Den I make-a T.V. shows and-a movies

Get-a myself a new car
But still I be myself

I don't want-a to change a t'ing

Still a-dance and a-sing

[ t'ing about-a mama
She used to say:
What's-a matter you? Hey! . . .
Mama
She said it all-a da time!
What's-a matter you? Hey!
Gotta no respect
. . .
That's-a my mama!

Hello

[gazza]

this is another cryptic one he is just hiding that he know nothing, first JD can be rossi but also it can be defoe so if either happen he look right..

[Musashi]

Most of the papers are pointing to Rossi joining Juve and I can't remember a single one pointing to him joining Spurs. Of course if Rossi does go to Juve, the ITKs can simply brush it off as "We were close" or something like that. Remember they never actually revealed how far into the deal we are (if we are in it in the first place).

Is this crap for real?!?

[tdw76]

Is this crap for real?!?

It's cryptic ITK, so probably not even slightly.

[JacoZA]

I got it.


Joe Dolce was born in Ohio. The majority of people from Ohio have German ancestry (28.9% to be exact) making them German American. Babe Ruth was German American. His nickname was "Bambino". Bambino means "little boy" in Italian. It is also a nickname for the Fiat 500. 500, Five Hundred, is a card game devised in America. The game is an extension of Euchre which also incorporates the basic principles of Bridge. Bill Gates is known to play Bridge. Bill Gates was born in Seattle. So was Grunge. Grunge musicians wear plaid, which is similar to tartan. Kilts are made with tartan patterns. Kilts are associated with Scotland.


We're signing Charlie Ada... oh....

[Fatboyyid]

^^^^ good attempt but I think it's Kenny Miller using your decoding

Well, at least it's not Alan Hutto... gdammit!

[Musashi]

Juventus are the only bidder for Villarreal's Giuseppe Rossi - Goal.com

Do we believe Goal.com or ITKs?

[berby999]

Its the same old from Tottenham isnt it. I would not be even slightly suprised if we end up with the same strike force(if you can call them a force!) as last season.
