Good morning. Another set of friendlies that nobody with half a brain saw fit to broadcast. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. You let everyone into the ground for free. Then you film it and sell it online at a fiver a head. This achieves two things. You encourage people to go to live games, especially kids …and are perceived as noble, generous and wise. The second is that you treat your fans like grown ups whilst keeping them on the boil as punters nurturing and indulging their desire in spending money with you. Opposed…

Good morning. Another week behind the wheel of the the old Spurs jalopy. We rumble on as we’re overtaken and undertaken on all sides. Rumours in Goonerville are of a medical for Mata and advanced talks for Benzema. Mancini is still playing FM at Eastlands. Dalglish is hoovering up players. Meanwhile in downtown Tottingham I am told that certain Spurs players are dragging their heels and clutching their contracts. Defoe, 3MP and J**** are all viewing the prospect of moving oop north and taking pay cut like a tabby cat viewing a swimming pool. Enquries Bentley consist of Alex McLeish…
The recent blog on the subject of a Community Share venture created significant interest. To the extent that a sizable figure of money was pledged in the space of only a few hours. *Cannot believe I didn’t put a PayPal button up. Idiot. Idiot* But on a serious note, many questions were raised. After all, the full document has yet to be released into the public domain. So I took your questions and added some of my own in order to get to the bottom of what I believe is a bloody good idea. My thanks to Tommy Maguire &…
Good day, gentlefolk. Another opportunity for you to leave your sartorial misdemeanors behind you and become a born again sharp dressed man. Or indeed woman. All you have to do is Tweet ‘fakinel’ to me @theboyhotspur and you’re in the hat. If you don’t use Twitter, then simply use the comment box. I’m an equal opportunities comp runner. The winner will be named and shamed before midnight tonight. Oh yes. According to the Ooh Aah Daily Star the Chavs have offered £30M for one of the Croatian gentlemen on our books. No like Feather Boas.
Evening. This is what they call better than nothing. A multimillion pound football club in the 21st century and we’re scratching around for even a radio broadcast. Bloody joke shop. MKFM have a man in the stands and for me -as limited as it is – this is 100 times better than text updates. Total disgrace. Click the Stay On Your Feet image below to go there.

It’s that time of year again. Fantasy football is in the air and the one they have yet to better is the Barclays Fantasy Premier League. I’ve taken the diabolical liberty of setting up a BIOYC! League the entry code of which is 353066-100539. Be triffic to see you there. Perhaps you have a league of your own that you’d like to recommend? Then by all means feel free to share the codes here.
Good morning. This is interesting to put it mildly. It was mooted a while back that contact had been made with Mark Hughes. Presumably to step into the breech should our current incumbent find himself unable to get into work one day. Perhaps a freak snow storm will block his car in. We have all been taking this global warming pretty light heartedly… Well it’s been suggested to me this morning that this is only Plan B. Plan A is that we are indeed talking to Real Madrid. But not just about players. The defiant, near angry response to the…
Good afternoon chaps. As you were. We don’t stand on ceremony here. So another day another dilemma. Nice cars Dilemmas. But I digress. Jermain Defoe on his day is lethal. Absolutely lethal. But so once was Cholera. “Another day with new opportunities. God always has a plan. JD” That was the Tweet from the Neopolitan Swordsman just one hour (ish) ago. But what does it actually mean? For the love of Amy Whineglass’s plastic mourners, if the players start talking in ITK cryptic drivel we are really scuppered. So let’s have a chat discussing if Defoe is actully worth persevering…
Good morning. Well I hope Luka is savoring the moment. Captain of a cup winning Spurs side. The world at his feet and most Spurs fans at his little Croat throat if it weren’t for a wall of stewards and body guards. The quality of Van der Vaart’s first goal and the cross by the boy Bale for the Defoe’s were outstanding. Speculation about potential signings has predictably deteriorated into a cryptic meltdown on message boards, but wading through the Italian press it really does seem that our interest is little more than a bargaining device in relation to Giuseppe…
