Good morning. Well all eyes on our Europa strategy now paying dividends then. Stoke, if one casts a steely eye upon the Barclay’s Premier League table sit 11 points behind us in 10th. A win should not be a foregone conclusion, but we have to be favourites. We’re playing some football that’s very easy on the eye. And for adrenalin junkies and TV producers looking for highlight clips even our failed attempts on goal are good viewing. There was I am told, some some last minute medicals yesterday. What this means I can’t tell you because I don’t know. But I…

Good afternoon. This is a public service announcement. Sort of. Are you interested in a becoming a foreign correspondent for Hotspur’s Half Hour? Do wot Aitch? Yes, the aural fine dining experience that is soon to be this blog’s online radio show is gently simmering in the HH kitchenette. Hotspur’s Half Hour will be presented by One Dave Mackay and myself with the support of many others with who possess not only genuine talent but patience that would shame a coach party of Saints. So here’s the dealio. One great element of this gig is hearing from our friends across…
Cracking interview with Pathe News Boy from Henry Winter in yesterday’s Telegraph. The quotes below merely server to confirm some of our most positive hopes.
“It’s probably the best team I’ve played in. Look at Gareth. He has exceptional ability. He can carry the ball 60 yards up the field. Aaron too.
Good afternoon. If I could start every blog with the line, Richard Keys won’t be best pleased then I’d struggle to guess when I’d get bored blogging. But that monkey pawed popinjay was one one of the main protagonists in the Modric to Chavski affair. There was barely a naffin’ morning when this smug, half pint sized can of urine wasn’t reeling out his, ‘I understand that Modric to Stamford Bridge is merely a formailty’ spiel.’ Box headed ponce. “Luka’s future is here. No one is for sale. We are keeping our best players and if anything we will be…
Good afternoon. With Christmas fast approaching, now’s the perfect time to treat the Spurs fan in your life to an extra special gift. And who better to sign it than the legendary Cliff Jones? The Welsh wizard – a lynchpin of the all-conquering Spurs side of the 60s – will be signing copies of the award–winning ’61: The Spurs Double’ at a special Tottenham Hotspur book signing this Saturday. For those on a tighter budget, he’ll also be signing ‘The Pocket Book of Spurs’ too. Come and meet a true Spurs great from 11am this Saturday (the 10th) at Waterstones…
Good morning. Our tight lipped, ashen faced supremo Arry Redschnapps has decided to confound his critics and implement a managerial masterstroke. “Aaron’s been in good form lately. I think he’s better on the left than on the right, in all honesty. When he comes on the left, like he did at Fulham and against Bolton, he can score. He likes to duck inside on his right foot, or he can take it past you. “I think he gets more opportunities to score goals when he plays on the left. On the other side he tends to go one way. When he gets on…
Good afternoon. Introducing you to LOc E and cracking piece of fun that deserves a wider audience. My thanks to Johnny Cheshunt for bringing it to our attention. This’ll blow your socks off. It’s right up there with the theme music to Black Beauty.
Good afternoon. And here’s today’s thought for you. Graham Roberts was on talkSPORT today and named A&E as his weakest link in the current Tottingham team sheet. The sanity of identifying Benny Sue as our weak link evades me. He’s called A&E for a reason of course – whilst on a run of assured performances there is always a vague underlying threat of a trip to casualty – but he’s been great of late. I also believe he’s added hugely to the positive vibe that’s about the club right now. So if you were Arry; what move would make in…
Good evening. Let’s cut to the chase here, shall we? We won 3-0 and that no matter how hard one tries to argue otherwise this was good thing. You’d take 3-0, no matter what circumstances wot transpired to produce it pretty much every day of the damn week. It’s a convincing win. You don’t ‘nick’ a game 3-0, after all. Do you? And here’s the big juicy ‘but’ (that’s what she said) you knew was coming… When playing away next season Bolton are probably going to be visiting an awful lot of new grounds. This doesn’t give everyone in the…
