Good afternoon.
Dropping like flies they are. The look for this evening’s affair is ‘Bare Bones’, a waifish theme that is positively sweeping the dressing rooms of Bootle and N17 alike.
Phil Jagielka, Leon Osman, Jack Rodwell, Tony Hibbert, Tim Cahill and Ross Barkley have between them; two bad knees, a pair of knackered groins, a faulty hamstring and foot that doesn’t work. They don’t need a physio they need Mary Shelley.
Pathe News Boy is maybe 50/50. Jermaine Jenas and Dances With Scones are currently appearing at the Alhambra in Bradford in Aladdin; alongside Kim Wilde and Nigel Havers.
So the game in hand will be gone. Everton have beaten Blackburn, Bolton, West Brom and Fulham, ‘on the road’. They have failed to beat Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle and Manchester City. So this is a good opportunity the mighty Tottingham to demonstrate which of these two lists they belong on.
Predictions? Bale’s due a goal as First Goalscorer he is 6/1. Modric as Anytime Scorer is at 3/1 which might just see you right if you had a spare coin or three. Prices courtesy of Boylesports.
Loved last night – found a great stream, with half decent commentary, and watched us absolutely dominate. Livermore was great, and we played well with Modders only at half his best I would say.
Important to remember it was only Everton, however just last season that was the sort of game we would have stuffed up somehow.
We will need some luck but the title is actually a possibillity now…! Levy – invest please……we will need as srong as squad as possible….
The real difference this season compared to last in terms of stats, is that we are consistently beating the teams we should be beating. Last season we took 32 points against “bottom half teams”, so far this season we have taken 31 with nine games left to play
On another matter, lollerskates at Keane. He completes his Aston Villa loan move ‘after thirteen years of waiting’.
The man has more ‘boyhood dream’ clubs than our Harry’s had hot dinners.
