Good morning.
This is interesting to put it mildly. It was mooted a while back that contact had been made with Mark Hughes. Presumably to step into the breech should our current incumbent find himself unable to get into work one day. Perhaps a freak snow storm will block his car in. We have all been taking this global warming pretty light heartedly…
Well it’s been suggested to me this morning that this is only Plan B.
Plan A is that we are indeed talking to Real Madrid. But not just about players. The defiant, near angry response to the Modric offer, plus the intensive pursuit of the NDP reflects that the Club is only just beginning to shift through the gears.
Jokey quotes about 2 points from 8 games to one side, a child could tell you that Spurs had a phenomenal season marred only by the abysmal form of the strikers. If ‘ifs and ands were pots and pans there’d be no need for tinkers,’ but had Spurs not missed so many comparative sitters we could have finished as high as 3rd. My point being that for all our moaning, we’d look like a pretty sweet prospect to many.
The Special One to White Hart Lane?
Yes please.
and why you say
jose
you think you know the something but you just maked this up and the people click i want to strongle you man someone please show me him at whit ehart lane
You can’t strongle me.
You left your web cam on. You look about 12. And why aren’t you wearing any trousers?
Harry. Can you give this man his own column? I would love to see a Mus match report.
I don’t think a column would come close to honouring his work, quite frankly.
I want a t shirt with ‘fackinel’ on – but not if anyone else has one.
Harry Hotspur always on about how young everyone is.
I think you either have a complex about your ugly aging face or or an admiration for Mr Glitter if you catch my drift.
Cheers you muggy C***
Am I always? I didn’t realise I did.
I think I’m aging quite well considering my formative years spent on the inshore life boat.
What is sad is that you express your vile suspicions about me by suggesting I admire a convicted molester.
So all your comment actually reveals is …that you’re not very bright.
Now I bet you didn’t need to post on here to let the world know that …did you?
Yes, you are always well in on the few occasions that I have been drawn to your blog by ridiculous rumours from your ‘contacts’ LoL.
the problem is with self-reflection is that you dont know that you are doing it-brilliant eh! So what this means to laymans (like myself) on School holidays is that I can read you like a book and not a very interesting one either.
to Essex1981: I didn’t know it was School holidays but I bet harry hotspur does Hahahah
Cheers
Is that all your own work?
Does Windows have a font that replicates crayons?
If they do, you should use it.
fackinel
Oh dear. I forgot it was the school holidays.
Jose to the Lane – sounds like a bunch of JIGGINS to me… ;)
An accurate description …if I ever ‘eard one, guv 8O
100% extra primo right
Ah, here it is……..

A case for Jose Mourinho to be the next Spurs Manager
It sounds a bit odd really saying we could actually snag the man I personally consider to be one of the world’s best football managers. But it seems that there could be a case for Jose, assuming of course there’s a vacancy. However I think there’s a good chance that Fabio will stay for the Euros and Harry will replace him after that.
So why would JM take a role at Spurs? For starters he has stated he wants to come back to the UK. He could replace Fergie or Wenger, but I think they would have to be stone cold dead and the keys to the manager’s offices prized out of their cold dead hands. Chelski is another possibility, but he’s been there and done it and there may be baggage.
I also get the impression he’d prefer to be in London, and apart from the fact that he has always displayed impeccable good taste and would consider both the Bin Dippers and Citeh a step down in his standards, I think the path they are on is not one that would offer him the challenges he personally needs. The Liverpool culture would not suit him I think and the idea of a Yank looking over his shoulder would have as little appeal as a Russian and of course Citeh is just a do-over: basically Chelski Mark II.
So THFC: based in London and a chance to work with a club of great tradition, stability and quality football roots. A chance also to shine within a scenario that doesn’t lend itself to the accusation of limitless pots of money to spend, but will spend when it can or must. A test maybe of his ability and skill to do the job on a level playing field and take it to Wenger and Fergie and say……. “See I can do it anywhere!”
Of course the man is not so blasé without thinking through the pragmatics. The financial strength of the club, its growing links to the business world of the US, its squad facilities and ambitions to push on and develop with a new stadium and top class playing and coaching staff, all recommend it as a place where ambition and capability meet. A place where a man who likes to live his own legend can grow that legend not just nurse it.
The man has been remarkably complimentary of the Club, Harry and the players. He has gone out of his way to win over the Spurs fans, little things like patting crouch on the back last night, being very magnanimous in victory with not a trace of disrespect to the club and still maintaining the levels of respect as a threat at WHL. He gave Gazza tickets to his private box, calling him the Special One…little things true, but he’s gently courted us for some time now, why?
The timing may not be quite right for a RM exit in 15 months time, but if he wants to go I’m sure he will and if we wanted him AND actually could get him, well we’ve already demonstrated we’ll cough up compensation.
I think the motivators would be that he’d be allowed to do what he wants to do, The relationship at Spurs is directly with Daniel Levy not some faceless billionaires or some Oligarch hanging over his shoulder with a cool million in one hand and an Uzi in the other. He’s proved time and again that he’s a football man, recklessly passionate at times but consistently to the ideals of winning and playing the game. At THFC he can play the beautiful game whilst teaching us how to win.
I may just be seeing patterns in the tea leaves, but if he comes back to the UK as he says he wants to do and doesn’t replace Fergie or Wenger, where else?”
Fuck the beer.. I could have saved myself the embarrassment of posting earlier if I’d read this…
..And simply wrote.. yeah What he says. Very true sir.
I could have saved myself the indignity of highlighting my lack of education. Fack in ell!
No like Fyodor.
