Wotcha. And so it simply refuses to sleep. The unrelenting wretch. The rumour mill grinds on and on …occasionally in technicolour… This from the FTL forum and the assertion is that the black gentleman in the picture was being shown around White Hart Lane. Today! Is this the Ivorian striker Seydou Doumbia? Or is it simply somebody or indeed anyone else? Your thoughts please, my dears…

Good afternoon.  I trust you are all enjoying the most memorable weekend of your miserable lives. If you can’t sniff a fat line of cocaine of the stomach of  a nubile corgi whilst dressed as Adolf Eichmann today, when can you?  You have to wonder if the pound shops are going to get burned here. You can barely get to the world’s best selection of bargain basement tooth rot for bunting, flags and a whole host of other crap we’ll call all manner of jingoistic accoutrement. What’s happening outside? It’s tipping it down and a workmanlike win, yes WIN by…

Good morning. I read this piece in this morning’s Sun and couldn’t help but come to the certain conclusion it was written by Redschnapps himself. HARRY REDKNAPP wants three more years to build a Champions League dynasty at Tottenham. Boss Redknapp has held contract talks with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy this week, with senior players fearing he could leave. Yes, I can imagine Bale is terrified Arry would be replaced by someone who tells him to his face he’s winger. Redknapp, 65, has only one year left on his deal but remains committed to the club despite the heartache of…

Good morning. The Mirror run with an interesting piece this morning. Maybe it’s hogwash, after all Goal.com decided to turn the ‘gone by the weekend’ ITK fever on message boards into ‘crunch talks on Friday’. My guess is that it isn’t hogwash as such, rather the Arry camp having a pretty futile go at trying to boost the old cove’s stock. Their original plan to play the, ‘Chelsea are interested card’ became increasingly unbelievable the more obvious it became in the press that Abramovich only had eyes for Guardiola. It comes as a Middle East consortium has put together a…

Good morning fight fans. Mark van den Heuvel is Rafa’s biographer, which for me would place him as a man who might well have more than half a clue as to what’s happening in Tulip Town. Van den Heuvel’s tweeted Tom Collomosse a cricket correspondent and Spurs specialist at the London Evening Standard that Jan is over, in London today. Is this for a medical? Well, he’s traveled ahead of his Belgium teammates who play Engerlund on Saturday…

Good afternoon. Never a dull moment, eh? Thirty nine goals in seventy six appearances for FC Twente. The boy’s well worth a look. This would put into perspective the suggestion from brain surgeons like me that Kuyt could still do a job.  Voetball Internatonal are saying, ‘The management of the 21-year old striker from FC Twente last week had an interview with Daniel Levy, the chairman of the London club.’ De Jong’s agent Louis Laros neither confirms nor denies negotiations with Tottenham Hotspur. Bless.  “I will not go into names of clubs.” Anything under €8M for the boy will do me. Thanks…

Good morning. The beats of the jungle drums are gently building. And I’m not talking about  ‘Summertime’ by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince being blasted out of cheap cars by gentlemen without shirts on at traffic lights.  From Jasper on Spurs Odious: We all know they want rid of him! We all know they are frustrated with him! We all know he cacked up the Hazard deal in January when we could of done a pre-contract agreement.  We all know it was the board who forced Ade on him as he wanted Carlton Cole, push for the Drog which…

Good morning. This would be nice. You know, if your definition of nice was when one of the Scandinavian air hostesses you were handcuffed to whispered in your ear, ‘I want more jelly and ice cream.’ Yesterday there was some muttering doing the rounds that the Arry camp was so deluded that they were planning a few leaked bits and pieces about him being in demand (Chelsea etc) to nudge THFC along into Arry getting his existing contract extended.   This morning it appears that the thunder has well and truly been stolen as the suggestion is made that The…
