Good morning from the Emerald Isle. A moving target’s harder to hit. That’s what I say. And welcome to Game Week 7 of the greatest football league with the word Barclays in it. Man City vs Sunderland Bobby Manc hasn’t been happy since …ah even he can’t remember that far back, bless ‘im. The corresponding fixture last year was a 3-3 draw with International hit-man Nickcholas Bendtner scoring, so don’t write this of as a home win. Oh hang on… Prediction: 2-1 Chelsea vs Norwich I’m struggling to see how the Blue Racists will lose this one. Norwich are fresh from…

Good morning. There was always going to be a period of bedding in, gelling, call it what you will. A new manager, new systems indeed, new players. What we were subjected to yesterday was nothing to do with any of that. It was a straightforward act of sabotage. Huddlestone, Dawson and Lennon are by default ‘senior players’ – believe it or don’t – and their contributions stank the place out. Huddlestone looked like he’d been smoking ketamine. Possibly for weeks on end. Dawson looked like he was on day release from a borstal. Lennon could quit football tomorrow and get a…
Good evening. Well done,I say. Well done for sabotaging what AVB is all about. Well done for thinking that being on what, £20k, £30k, £40k actually impresses anyone?! Let me my darlings tell you… You no mark schmucks you are loathed. Hated. You wear our bloody shirt and the only time you sweat is when your salary is at threat. Well done for summoning up the spirit of that preseason in the Republic Of Ireland under Martin Jol. You must recall that one, eh, Tommy? The game against St Pats? The manager of the Radisson that refused you ‘more drink!’…
Good evening. The old Bubble & Squeaks away in the Europa or the ‘Europen’ as ODM thinks it’s called. I guess there could be worse long term use side effects of continuous Centrum® Silver® Women 50+. You can find more sportsbook review information here, but the Greeks are marginal favourites despite their last performance in the tournament and this should provide the opportunity for some value in several Tottenham markets so it’s a game worth casting your eye over. I’d put Lloris right in there. If you read my analysis after the Yanited game and if you dared to play…
Good morning. The latest Hotspur’s Half Hour is out and packed to the gills with thrills, spills and bellyaches. On this week’s show we’ve what can only be described as an historic mash up featuring Jan Vertonghen and The Eagles courtesy of our one man house band and musical arranger Mr Loveridge of Membrane Audio. Worth the price of admission alone. What a choon. But the cherry on this sumptuous slice of aural gluttony [ODM’s obsession with baking is becoming a concern] has to be our very special guest star Knut from Football Away. Knut has a stellar anecdote about…
Good morning. Ah, the familiar strains of the lesser spotted weasel faced football agent. The following from Pini Zahavi [ taking to Izvestia] who appears to be representing Joao Moutinho. Moutinho some some readers may vaguely recall was linked with us in the last transfer window. If this quote is anything to go by, we don’t feature prominently in the boy’s future. “I will not hide that there is interest on the part of Zenit, and we will analyze their proposal in January! Zenit is a very strong team, who may be the next step in the career of Joao.”…
Evening all. Paul Jiggins is a man of immensely limited human dimensions. Which is a kind way of saying he probably would be better suited to say, cleaning toilets or peeling potatoes for a living than pretending to be a sports reporter. Here’s the transcription of a paid journalist making himself look about as informed as a dead sheep or as he called it, ‘interrogating Villas-Boas.’ Mr Ploppy: Andre, can you understand Hugo Lloris’ frustration about the situation because you did pay quite a lot of money for him. AVB: “What is the frustration?” Mr Ploppy: Well frustration about not…
Good afternoon. What a game. Based upon the first half we might have won by 3 or 4. Based on the second we were lucky to we didn’t concede by a similar margin. Spurs sit 5th and a the thought of Villa indoors to savour. The style of play really seems to suit our squad. Possession driven play and pace driven counterattack. I like Brad I really do, but he’s giving me a naffin’ migraine with his sadly outdated play. I want Lloris in next week. Keeping the ball on the floor is key when retaining possession. It doesn’t guarantee…
Good evening Record Breakers. Whilst the second half degenerated into a hoof ball festival with the headline act being Brad F & Sunshine Coach Band we beat Manchester United in their own back yard. At half time their fans were booing. Did you hear them? And at full time their club lost the game. Are the two mutually exclusive? Hats off yet again to our away support. Always outnumbered, rarely outgunned. A genuine credit to the firm. There were those who who went missing in the second half and questions need to be asked about our collapse offensively. Rooney was…
