Where did you get this from? Interesting.

There are no concussion subs in UCL so had no choice. At least the ref did the right thing blowing for full time when Romero went off!

But who in the club is there that knows anything about football or the club to make that call? Inept.

Lots of seats still available tonight! Better make some noise!

There are a crap load of tickets left for the Palace game tomorrow night. I guess if that means the Negative Nigels are staying at home that's no bad thing, but I think they need to reduce the prices quickly and just fill those seats with people who are excited to be there.

Sign him up! Now!

Assuming Wolves and Burnley are down, we've just got to be better than *one* of these other three teams to avoid the drop: West Ham / Forest / Leeds
We are still yet to play against two of those.
Surely that's not too much to ask? πŸ€”πŸ˜¬

Saw him play in the Spurs Legends game vs AC Milan this summer. Still got it. Played in CAM role for most of the game if I recall. Bring him back in, along with Lennon and Keano and JD - options at least!

Lennon it is then!

Odobert out with an ACL. This season just gets worse and worse. Is Raheem Sterling still a free agent? I watched Aaron Lennon in a Legends match against AC Milan, he's still got something to give... #COYS

Exciting transfer move in the forward line for Spurs today!

Sending Dane Scarlett out on loan again.
How does this make sense? Come on ENIC, who's coming in?

Ange strikes again

He's only 32, just feels like he's been semi retired for the past 5 years.

17.01.2026 15:28 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Sounds like he might have broken his leg. Sigh.

Tel's goal excepted. Our first goal from open play in 10 hours apparently...

🎢 You know I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
I can't laugh and I can't sing
I'm finding it hard to do anything
You see I feel sad when you're sad (Tottenham!)
I feel glad when you're glad
If you only knew what I'm going through
I just can't smile...
watching this crap.

You can see the pavement has salt on it from the road showing, it's just there is not enough traffic to spread and dissolve it into brine; a bike tyre is pretty narrow and there ain't many of them out there in the snow! The cars and vans and lorries do most of the work in the gritting process.

04.01.2026 23:19 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

More importantly, the snow needs clearing first. Sounds expensive!?

I get frustrated by this too, but standard road salt ("grit") needs lots of vehicles driving over it regularly to be effective, otherwise it doesn't spread or dissolve anyway and re-freezes.

Don't you just hate a nil-nil defeat? Absolute dross. #COYS #BRETOT

We've got high quality players. They just all play in defence.

Gary Neville could not be more anti-Spurs if he tried. Every time. Does my head in.

How is that not a foul? In Sunday league the ref is giving that for two hands on his shoulders.

So finally this weary football supporter looked to see what β€œxGβ€œ - β€œexpected goals” - actually meant.

What were these impressive sounding, precise statistics being banded about by ever-so-earnest, knowing pundits?

The answer?

Utter pseudo-scientific subjective flapdoodle.

🧡 Is it a super flu year? Who knows, but I think the current reporting is stupid.

A pissed off thread using data.

Firstly - here are today's headlines and some from the last 3 years... spot the difference. 1/10

It's the hope that kills you. I was at the stadium, I only get to see them once or twice a season now. It's a long way to go and that first half was a travesty. I feel for my son, who has not seen them win live for a long time.

Much better from #Spurs tonight against the European Champions. Why couldn't we show that intensity and intent in the NLD? That's football for you I guess.

Hoping for a rip-roaring performance against Fulham this Sat night to turn our home form around, especially as I'll be there! #COYS #THFC
