Good morning. Time is running out for the Primark Posse. In just some eighty odd hours time the opportunity of a lifetime will be gone. Groupon is offering West Ham home tickets at up to 53% off the marked price. West Ham Football Club, a force to reckoned with globally. Soon to be the subject of a forthcoming soccerumentary, ‘My Big Fat Headed Olympic Squatters’. And so now in a pincer movement of stupidity we have Porn Baron David Sullivan of Goldplated & Sullivan fame who is sore no, not because of that business with the dwarf and the road cone…

Good morning. It’s far from a complete surprise of course but the jungle drums have begun gently beating in relation to this whole England manager business. How much of this is factual and what elements are conjecture are for you to decide. So here we go… While the FA have yet to make a formal approach… the two parties on our side are making ready their respective contingencies. For Arry’s part as we all know, he wants the England job and is letting the tide of popular opinion carry him gently into it. Levy & Co have understandably gone into…
Good morning and welcome to the reality of the FA Cup. I think trying to pull player ratings out of that game would be about productive as teaching Dereck Chisora to use cutlery. The stark reality of playing a League 1 side seemed to take a few by shock yesterday. Yes, Stevenage were a bit rough, tough and generally didn’t play like nice boys. And no, you wouldn’t want to take a horse out on that pitch. But this is the FA Cup, mush. Whether you like it or not that Cup and Tottingham’s history are intertwined. Games like that…
Good morning ladies. Stevenage away it is and at the risk of sounding like a crazy man I’d suggest we rest a few, but really put out a strong team. The game at Watford was a clear warning that some genuine thought needs to go into the team selection and the tactics. My team would look a lot like this then: Cudicini, Walker, Dawson, Livermore, Nelsen, Sandro, Kranjcar, Bale, Azza Blud, Defoe and Saha. Which hopefully reflects a few injuries and a few folk putting their feet up and having a nice cuppa. Eye-catcher bets are slim pickings as the bookies…
Good morning. Four hundred and fifty million quid is the figure being bandied about. Philip Anschutz of AEG it is suggested is prepared to buy the controlling stake in Spurs. From The Express. Nigh on twice the figure of the Liverpool sale. But aside from being at least twice the club, Tottenham come to market in rather good fiscal shape and not on their bindipping knees. Why would this happen? Well we can only guess really. ENIC are perhaps reaching a crossroads whereby their investment is coming to the end of one chapter and about to commence upon another. They…
Hello. A number of Spurs fans have been reported to be, ‘devastated, but stable’ this morning after discovering that Eden Hazard won’t be a Tottenham player in time for Sunday’s game against Stevenage. “Of course. It’s always more fun when it’s beautiful [the football]. In addition, at Arsenal, there is a coach and French players. And Thomas Vermaelen,” Hazard confessed to Sport Foot Magazine. “There are several clubs that interest me in England and Arsenal is really a part. That’s the championship where I think I can express myself better. Where I can learn more, too…” Arsenal and indeed Chelsea were…
Help yourself to a Slow News Day warning from Reception. The David Bentley saga rumbles onwards sidewards . Having miserably failed to live up to even the most meager of expectations for Spurs, he wandered off to West Ham and got injured possibly without even kicking a ball. I can’t tell you for sure such was my wholehearted lack of interest. Rob Segal, Mr Bentley’s agent told MLS Soccer.com, “This is something that is really interesting for David, as it will also get him fit through the summer, he would like to go there on loan as soon as possible.”…
I don’t know what you’d call this …an exercise in gun jumping or simply endemic of a football transfer rumour market that flat-lined a fortnight ago… but the call I suggest you resist making is to your lover asking for a Tottenham shirt with Hazard on the back for a Valentine’s gift. Look, the good news is he was asked about us and he didn’t have to suppress giggles. My French is on a par with my English, but even I got that he was flattering about us. Acknowledged we had a great win on Saturday before an enthusiastic crowd,…
Good morning. Apologies for lack of activity but I am assured that thanks to the sterling efforts of the world’s finest digital minds the damp sellotape holding the server together has been replaced with stout British string. The game against Newcastle goes straight into the Top 10 of the best I’ve ever seen. The stage was set for a tough ol’ showdown. Newcastle it could be said, still had the wind up ’em. Pardew has almost reached the point where he can travel to and from Sid James Park without an armed guard. Newcastle may have in part inexplicably failed…
