Good morning. Rumour has it we’re playing football against a shower of odd looking mercenaries tomorrow afternoon. If was a beauty contest they’d win second prize and collect £10. Bobby Manc and Arry have had a little bit of handbags which is nice. Arry essentially suggesting that a partially sighted octogenarian lolly pop lady could win the league with Manchester City’s money. A surreal conversation given that the manager of Colchester United probably says the same about us. The team then. My guess is that Ledders is being defrosted by Levy & Co’s Cryogenic team as we speak. Here’s my…

Guten Abend, Hotspur’s Half Hour is rapidly developing all the salient characteristics of a male porn star. Unlike others in appearance, not really in it for the money and taking the devil’s own time to arrive. When you hear our Roman Pavyluchenko Remix of Hotel California you may begin to appreciate precisely what we have been up against in terms of delivering a show that no one in their right mind would attempt. Arry ‘eld a presser this morning and the word is that Sandro & Gallas will not feature against City. Ledders has yet to take a test (I…
Hello my dears. The tension is tangible. Only nearly 24 hours away from one of the biggest games in this football club’s entire history ever, since the last one. I had my say about the need for discipline here and so beyond that we need to make sure we …score. Manu, Defoe and that pesky Russian are all fit and raring to go. Sadly Manu’s contractual obligations mean he’ll only be going as far as the comfy seats behind the substitutes. So then there were two. Arry in the Current Bun says of Defoe, “City have won all 10 Prem…
Good afternoon. Since taking over at Queens Park Rangers the back pages have unleashed a cavalcade of potential transfer targets for stone faced supremo. The Mail among others have suggested that Heurelho Gomes and Steven Peanut are in the mix. Let’s hope this is the case. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not exactly brimming with contempt for Gomes. If you’ll indulge me lapsing into pop psychologist mode, the guy is guilty of nothing more than being a man who is perceived as weak. You’ve heard the line that ‘goalies are a different breed’? Well that is 100% true. And no more…
Wotcha. A continental feel to this evening’s offerings/floor sweepings from a transfer window so insipid looking thus far you could put it in an off the peg suit and call it a Labour MP. Gregory van der Wiel’s name is also in the frame courtesy of Tuttermercatoweb who don’t say much which is a tactic I might learn from, but what they do say smacks a little too much of our good name being dragged into a wage enhancing fight. Valencia are keen, certainly keen enough to have already bid. But their £8m bid was rejected about a week ago. Croatian…
Good evening hep cats. The old ITK game eh? Not the oldest profession in the world but there are stark similarities between all the parties involved in both. The Journalist came out with a string of stuff in the last window that didn’t quite pan out. Sadly this has been grasped as an opportunity to throw him to floor and strike him soundly (in virtual bully boy but no actually fisticuffs type of way). There isn’t an ITK in the Tottinghamsphere with a one hundred percent track record, not one. You can’t be a bit ITK. That’s like being a…
Good afternoon. I watched the Wiganistas vs Manchester City last night. Having managed to tune out a mystifying/irritatingly over reverent commentary …the facts of matter where that Wigan, who had little to offer put in a commendable performance and more interestingly may have highlighted to Arry & Co what has to be done only as well as that which shouldn’t. Above all else, Defensive discipline is vital. You build a team from the back to the front. If you watch the way City tend to attack – and not just last night – a lot of moves stem from…
Good evening. This window is so quiet if you close your eyes you can just see Ted Moult pondering over which feather to use. But will Arry fit the best into this the Best Performing Side Since ’61™? “I’m staying,” Loic Remy told Canal+. “I will 100 per cent stay at Marseille until the end of the season and even the end of my contract. “I have spoken with the president and the staff. And it would not be right for me to leave this club. “We’ll see next summer but that’s not even in my head for now.” Closer to…
Hello young lovers. Well yesterday’s blog was fun wasn’t it? Well only another seven days to go until the Manchester City game so best I use the time wisely and rehearse lots and lots of ever so glowing and grateful rhetoric to scatter gently into my appraisal. Arry was in France today. Specifically to watch Loic Remy. He told Radio 5Live this earlier today. Redschnapps has personally scouted him before. That was two years ago. Since then Aitch revealed that THFC have had a few people watch him. On and off. Will this happen? Well every window, up pops a name,…
