Like it or not for the time being Bentley is one
of ours. He played okay last night,had nice hair,
hit some free kicks on target and played in some
quality balls.
Bale managed to get that monkey's head off of
his shoulders at last, and all round it was a solid
3 points.
I wish H was a bit more cheerful.I'm doing the Spurs
show podcast next Tuesday, and want to thank you
all for being you...One day I will post about writing
this book!

wound and wound...
the wagged wock the wagged wascal wan. So let's hear
a big Spurs welcome for Woy Hodgson and his wabble...
If someone offered to swap H for Woy would you?
Should be interesting to see if there is any reaction
from recent results. H says quite rightly that 1 defeat
in 10 matches is no cause to panic, and we've never 'ad
it so good.
Those strange 'laws' of football mean two things
will happen tonight, we will get a penalty, and one of
our old boys will get a goal (Murphy's Law?). Spurs to
win by the odd goal!
Oh yes, and it will be v.cold so let's wrap up warm!

They **** you up!
To paraphrase Philip Larkin if your Mum and Dad don't
do the job then your football team most certainly will.
Especially if it happens to be Tottingham Hotspurs.
The sad thing is that even as I enter my 47th year it
seems that nothing really changes. I'm saying it for
the last time...LOSE THE VICTIM MENTALITY.
Something stuck in my brain the other day...I'm sure
there is some relevance 'Fool me once, shame on you;
fool me twice, shame on me.' We've got too many fools
floating around N17. Get it sorted. Leeds away, Bolton
away, a good chance to show a bit of character...

As if I care...
I'm not going to be at the Lane this saturday.
As part of my 46thbirthday celebrations I'm
off to stay in a Youth Hostel in the Isle of Wight.
Doesn't get much better!
Anyhow I expect a nasty atmosphere, lots of
Yorkshire men drinking all afternoon in London
for their cup final. I can almost hear H already
"Make no mistake these are a triffic side, it won't
be long til they're back in the big time, they're a
real big club and a lot of the players out there had
a lot to prove to a lot of people." Not sure about the
result but I think we might hang on for a draw...

Plus Ca Change...
If only everything in life was as reliable as Spurs. Laid low by a bout of 'man flu',
the closest that I got to the action was Sky Sports news with that git Merson. To
anyone who lost money on Spurs last night all I can say is more fool you. Our record
against the top four from last season is now bordering on pathetic.No, it's actually
bought some land and looking for planning permission on Pathetic! I've just read that
we have failed to beat any of the top four sides away for 16 years...Sorry, but there is
something fundamentally wrong. The only good thing about getting beaten is that I
don't actually want to look at the league table

No S**T Sherlock!
I've just read in the Telegraph (don't ask) H said "I'm not being disrespectful
to Robbie but when Crouch came on (against Hull) we suddenly looked more
dangerous." How much money does this guy get paid? More importantly where
is his bank account?
So it's Crouch and Defoe to start at Anfield. Still looking on the bright side,Gomes
has only got to keep a clean sheet for 66 more minutes to beat our record of 602
minutes...Maybe Rafa would take Keano on loan for the evening?

1 step forward, 2 steps back.
There is a theory that it's best to sleep on things, and look at them in
the cold light of day. The fact is that we've now played Stoke, Wolves
and Hull at home, failed to score against all 3, and taken 1 point from
9. These things happen, if they happen once okay, but three times is not
acceptable. 270 minutes of football + injury time!
H has already been on saying that the only thing that we did wrong was
not beating the goalkeeper. It's a fundamental part of the game H. We
really do struggle against teams that come to WHL and play football that
way, however a really good manager can change the style of play and adapt.
It's easy to have a dig at Keano, (all I want is a bench of Robbie Keane's!) but
he's not the guy who picks the team and decides the tactics.
H, we need to be more ruthless and change the Tottenham 'victim' mentality.
Sometimes I wonder whether we are making progress?
