Well all done, bar the medical.No posts for months and then two in a few hours... it's like London buses here.Darren Bent has just posted on Twitter (or should that be "has just tweeted") that:"Just seen crouchy at the training ground wish him all the ...

I know it’s been a while since I’ve shared my opinions, but with a new season looming I guess it’s time for me to pick up the pen again (or at least let my fingers touch the keyboard). Last season’s finish wasn’t too bad considering and so w...

The best thing about yesterday was that when I took my seat in the East Stand the sun wasn’t in my eyes. No this isn’t another rant about a poor Spurs performance, because I was reasonably impressed with yesterday – especially all the pretty, de...

It's been a tough few months on and off the pitch for Spurs, but things are definitely looking up. Yesterday's win at Villa Park was arguably the best result of our season so far, and although we're not out of the relegation dogfight just yet, we are t...

Last season’s trip to Wembley signalled the beginning of the end for our previous management team. After our cup final victory over Chelsea we managed just three wins and a measly 15 points from our remaining 12 matches of the season and it obviously...

After last night’s setback in Ukraine, I felt compelled to write to our beloved club:Dear Mr Levy,I am writing to you in my capacity as season ticket holder, shareholder and most importantly, lifelong supporter. Along with all other Spurs fans I am t...

A lot is blamed on Gordon Brown and my latest criticism is that his poor management of the economy and the banking industry has led to numerous cuts in interest rates which in turn have caused the value of sterling to plummet. So what? This is a footba...

My mum always said to me, “If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all”… so for that reason I haven’t posted anything for most of this season. But it's been too long without having a rant on this blog so I thought it was ...

So the silly season is over for a few months and Sky Sports News’ audience figures will no doubt drop back down to more regular levels until late January. The transfer window has closed and surprise, surprise, Berba has joined ManUre. Although all Sp...

An opening day loss in the northeast against one of the Premier League’s weaker sides, followed by a home defeat to a team we've had a decent home record against in recent years. Déjà vu? This season has started in the same abject fashion for Totte...

This time last year who would have predicted what happened to Spurs in 2007-08? Certainly not me. I genuinely felt BMJ was the least likely Premier League manager to leave his post that season, and yet by the end of October he was gone. But enough of t...

An unbeaten pre-season that included beating the Scottish champions and thrashing the Serie A runners-up, the signing of some exciting new players, a striker who literally cannot stop scoring... it even looked like we were going to hang on to Berba unt...

There’s no point harping on about Mr Tottenham turning his back on us to join the car thieves in Merseyside. It’s water under the bridge now and therefore time to move on. As the 'second striker' Keano had a key role to play in the way Spurs sides ...

So not only did Martin Jol win a trophy at the Emirates this weekend, but we picked up some more silverware in the form of the Feyenoord Jubilee Tournament Trophy. I don’t think I’ve been this excited since we won the 2005 Peace Cup! I watched our ...

Another summer at Spurs and as usual it means months of speculation. As a well-supported and wealthy club it means we’re linked with everyone from my gran to Pele (or so it seems at times). With 38 days remaining until the transfer window closes, I t...

Fresh from Daniel Levy publicly declaring Alex Ferguson's antics as "unbelievably hypocritical... and disgraceful", another football club boss has been exposed for what he really is.Simon Jordan, the man with the flowing golden locks who failed as a pr...

Having returned from holiday earlier this week I was hoping to hear that that stories linking Keane with Liverpool had died down, that a foreign club had offered £30 million for Berba, that no-one other than the fringe players were being linked with m...

I was a little hung-over on Sunday morning when I read the News of the World, and was sure that I must have misread one of the sports stories, linking Robbie Keane with a move to Liverpool. I mean, please… Keano is a Spurs legend. He lives, breathes ...

Last week I estimated that Tottenham are linked to somewhere between 200 and 400 players a year. Since the domestic game is currently enjoying its summer break, and there was no Euro 2008 match last night to entertain us, the press attention on comings...
