Spurs News

Home to Stoke on Wednesday evening and hopefully we’re set for less drama than was witnessed last time out. The encouraging news from the London Chest Hospital means that any doubts as to whether the game should go ahead have largely been dispelled, all that remains to be established is the extent to which our players have been able to put the traumatic events behind...

This weekend we have the Magic Of The Cup to distract us from our less than bewitching current league form. Three results (let’s forget about the scorelines) that wouldn’t look shocking if sprinkled throughout the year have trickled through together and have thus given some of those from south London something to hang their season on. The heat is apparently on...

Everton away on Saturday evening. Never an easy fixture, Dogs of War, the Eyes of Moyes, the ears of Phil Neville, that sort of thing. Probably not our first choice of game when we need to kick start the points gathering machine, but we’ve got to play them some time I guess. Did they really have to be on a six game unbeaten run though? Remember the reverse fixture...

Stevenage at home in the Cup on Wednesday night and a chance to forget our recent Premier League travails and put a lower league side to the sword. Maybe. As we found in the first game Stevenage are no mugs. To recap, in the goalless draw at Broadhall Way we played three in defence with Walker and Rose at wing back and Bale in the centre. Saha and Defoe played up front....

Our run of games against teams in the top third continues on Sunday at the unlikely time of ten past four as Manchester United come to White Hart Lane. It’s been awhile since we took all three points in this fixture, a Man City supporting mate of mine is desperate for us to do so this time but at the risk of stating the bleeding obvious, it’ll take a considerable...

Sunday looms. Rarely in the recent past can we have entered a NLD with so much, on the face of it, going our way. Form, confidence and momentum are all with us. Even this week, comparing the injury crises that have affected both sides’ preparations, ours has relieved whilst theirs has deepened. Nothing has been achieved yet though and if we behave as though it has then...

It’s FA Cup time once again as we travel to Broadhall Way, home of League One Stevenage on Sunday afternoon in the 5th round. The Boro – as they still seem to be called despite dropping the ‘Borough’ part of their name a while ago – are having a good season and currently lie in the play-off places with at least one game in hand on those immediately above...

And with one twitch he was free! But to whose benefit? Ours, until the end of the season probably but, thanks to the latest FA cock-up, not without an attendant media circus. It almost makes you wish there’d been a conviction and a fine instead of exoneration. Almost. “Tottenham is my team and the fans have been fantastic. It wouldn’t be right to focus on...

Five serious league games in a row now starting with Liverpool on Monday evening – Newcastle, Woolwich, Man United and Everton follow. With three of these fixtures away from home, what’s a serious target to come out of the end of this run with? We’re capable of winning all these games but how about ten points? Three wins and a draw? I’d take that personally. Traditionally...

Monday night sees us face a tough visit to Anfield. The Reds are on the up after three good results in a row whilst after the useful win over Wigan we’ll be looking to consolidate our position, tidily placed in third. We’re looking forward to the game, but what about those with a red bias though? I cornered a Koppite and posed him a few questions. So who are you and...
