  • MF’s Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs Blackburn Rovers
    Cup fever takes a back seat this weekend as Blackburn Rovers come to White Hart Lane for a Saturday lunchtime kick off. Liverpool’s poor result and performance on Monday belied their status as fourth place favourites and the final Moneybags League spot appears up for grabs again even to us, despite having the April fixture list from hell still to come. Blackburn have...

  • MF’s Preview: Fulham vs Tottenham Hotspur (FA Cup Quarter Final)
    Injuries to the midfield have dominated our build up to this weekend’s visit to Craven Cottage. The absence of Lennon, Bentley, Jenas and Huddlestone means that we’re running out of options in the middle with Modric, Kranjcar and Palacios the only recognised first team midfielders available. So Harry will get to earn his money as he decides whether to chuck in a youngster...

  • MF’s Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton
    This Sunday lunchtime Spurs take on Everton, the form team of the moment, in a lunchtime kick off at White Hart Lane. In the past few weeks the Toffees have deservedly beaten Chelski, Man City and Man United and had the better of a draw at the filthy gooners. A season that appeared to be lost in stories of injuries and playing kids too early has almost been turned around....

  • MF’s Preview: Spurs vs Bolton (FA Cup Replay)
    This Wednesday evening Spurs take on Bolton in a cup fifth round replay. Cup fever hasn’t totally gripped White Hart Lane. The prospect of reduced prices and the rumour that the newly reborn Roman Pavlyuchenko is set to start only his third game of the season should take the crowd above thirty thousand but the ‘tickets still available’ notices on the official website...

  • Fan Preview: Wigan Athletic vs Tottenham Hotspur
    It’s Lancashire again this weekend as Spurs go to Wigan Athletic & if any club is going to be out for revenge this season it’s them.  The 9-1 stuffing we dealt out in November should surely point to another comprehensive victory for us, however you only need to go back a month and Norwich’s visit to Colchester United to find the flaw in that logic.  Delia’s...

  • Fan Preview: Bolton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur (FA Cup)
    So are we going to end the season with a bang or a whimper?  After Molineux on Wednesday it feels like we’ve already spelt out the W-H-I-M. This Sunday’s game at Bolton will determine whether we’re reaching for the Tippex or the permanent marker come Monday morning. What are the chances of Wolves going out of business I wonder? It’s their results we need expunged...

  • Fan Preview: Wolves vs Tottenham Hotspur
    Spurs go to Wolves on Wednesday night seeking to reverse the December result at White Hart Lane. Kevin Doyle’s winner that day was the last time we conceded in the league at home, a good record but one lost at the moment in the angst about what’s going on at the other end. The 0-0 against Villa on Saturday typified many of our performances this season in that despite...

  • Fan Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa
    Despite speaking as a man who thought the result and performance against Liverpool sounded the death knell for our league season, I’m still looking forward to this weekend’s game with more than a few nerves and a lot of anticipation. Aston Villa come to White Hart Lane for a Saturday evening kick off and the battle of fourth v seventh.  The strange and welcome truth...

  • Fan Preview: Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur
    We’re not in the best of shapes for our fourth round FA Cup replay at Leeds on Wednesday night. None of the new signings can play as they weren’t with us for the first game (Kaboul and Walker are cup-tied anyway), and of the familiar crew, Assou-Ekotto, Woodgate, King, Pavlyuchenko and Lennon are all injured and Hutton, Keane and Naughton have all been told to go...

  • Fan Preview: Birmingham City vs Tottenham Hotspur
    Birmingham City’s 3-0 defeat at Chelsea on Wednesday night was their first loss for more than three months. So how will they feel after two defeats in a week? Spurs go to St Andrew’s on Saturday afternoon so hopefully we’ll find out sooner rather than later. It’s been a strange January transfer window with little Tottenham related action. The seemingly bottomless...
