We have our own Rory Delap

0
So why not start using him? Gareth Bale can launch a throw in the same manner as Rory Delap and I think we should utilise this part of his game more. I'm not saying we make it a staple part of our play like Stoke but there would be no harm mixing it up a bit with a few 'Bale Bombs'.

Yesterday's defeat at the hands of Everton was unlucky but we have had our fair share of luck since Harry took over so I'm not going to let it get me down. Click to continue reading...

NEC Nijmegen v Tottenham - Pain Preview

1
A game Spurs should have a decent chance of winning on current form and more or less qualify for the last 32 of the UEFA Cup in the process.


Team News
Alan Hutton is expected to be out for Tottenham with his long term foot injury. Luka Modric is still out and Vedran Corluka and striker Roman Pavlyuchenko are both cup-tied. Click to continue reading...

Gallas and Arsenal the biggest joke of all

6
Let's cast our minds back a month or so. Spurs were bottom of the league, some way adrift, and didn't look like winning another game anytime soon. Arsenal fans were having a field day and came up with a number of Tottenham jokes that just kept on coming. It's gone all quite on that front since Harry arrived at the Lane and over the last few days the boot is well and truly on the other foot. Click to continue reading...

Bent must take his chance

4
Darren Bent has a massive opportunity tonight. In normal circumstances he probably wouldn't get a look in, but with the players that are missing and the form he has been in of late, he could well start for England tonight against Germany. Capello has reportedly spoken with Bent regarding the way he wants him to play which points to him playing at least some part. Click to continue reading...

You can only endure a clown for so long

3
I knew it wouldn't be long before Heurelho Gomes cost us a game under Harry and it finally happened yesterday at Craven Cottage. I've been fighting his corner while most people have been knocking our Brazilian keeper be you cannot defend the indefensible.

His save from Jimmy Bullard's free kick was exceptional but ultimately pointless. Click to continue reading...

Tottenham v Liverpool - Pain Preview

0
Spurs go into tonight's game unbeaten under Harry Redknapp as well as having beaten Liverpool 2-1 earlier this month at White Hart Lane. This will be a quite different Liverpool side with Rafa Benitez likely to give his fringe players a game while resting his stars. Will this make things easier for Tottenham though?

Man City - Pain Review

Is Harry actually God? I've never believed in God before but I'm starting to see the light.

Since Harry Redknapp took charge.

Played 5
Won 4
Drawn 1 (We can allow God an off day)

Before he took charge I was starting to think we would never win a game ever again. Click to continue reading...

New goalkeeper a Given

0
Spurs have been strongly linked in the press today with Newcastle Goalkeeper Shay Given. Harry is quoted in the Daily Mail as saying: "Shay Given is a great goalkeeper who I admire. Any manager would have to be interested in him if he became available."

Given is a very solid goalkeeper and would be a great acquisition for Tottenham. Click to continue reading...

House of cards

0
Like every other Tottenham fan, I couldn't be happier at the minute. Our first league win of the season against Bolton, come back from the dead away to Arsenal, then get a victory against the unbeaten league leaders Liverpool to take us off the bottom of the table.

A lot of pundits are saying Harry has been extremely lucky which I suppose he has but I just feel like some managers have that about them and some don't. Click to continue reading...

LICK EM UP AARON

0
Unfeckingbelievable. I'm still coming down. Arsenal fans are saying why are we celebrating like it's a win? Because it felt like a fcuking win, one of the greatest comebacks in history. We might well have been battered for large periods of the game but the fact we battled for 94mins speaks volumes. The amount of confidence the players will get off the back of a result like that is unreal. Click to continue reading...

Arsenal v Tottenham - Pain Preview

What a difference a week makes. I still think we will likely get beat but at least we go into the game with a renewed optimism as do the players.

Team News
The defence is a problem for Spurs with both King and Woodgate likely to be missing but Gareth Bale returns from his one match ban. Click to continue reading...

Harry to take charge against Bolton

0
It sounds like our new manager Harry Redknapp is going to be more or less in charge for today's game against Bolton. He met the players this morning and was going to consult with Clive Allen and pick the team from the players available.

I don't know whether he'll be in the dugout or in the stands but it will be a big boost for the players to have him there in some some shape or form. Click to continue reading...

Harry Redknapp to take over!

1
Harry could be in charge by tomorrow, this is unreal, it's all happening!

I'm sure he'll take the job if offered it if he hasn't already.

Maybe he'll bring Jamie in as Director of Fashion alongside him. Click to continue reading...

Ramos, Comolli and Poyet all sacked!

1
Breaking news, I'll post more as I hear it.

I wasn't expecting this on a Saturday night, Levy probably acted to avoid a big demo tomorrow.

Clive Allen takes charge for the Bolton game.

Any idea's on who they have lined up, because I'm sure there is someone? Click to continue reading...

The players that can change our season

0
The majority of the players that have been on the pitch week in week out just aren't performing or aren't up to the job. I think it has a lot to do with them being to lightweight and not up for a scrap. These are the players we are yet to see much of, but I feel they can all make a difference to us.

Alan Hutton - I rate Hutton as one of the best full backs in the country. Click to continue reading...
