    Ange in or out?

    I'm honest about it but until then, I was on the fence. I'd add that I bear no ill-feelings towards him, but the games have become utterly unwatchable for me. We all draw the line somewhere I guess.

    Ange in or out?

    Just to be clear, I can't wait for him to be gone: I've reached the stage where I can't even watch full games! However, beyond our current situation, I think it's interesting that training sessions have become more and more of a talking point amongst fans. If you remember, Mourinho was...

    Ange in or out?

    Fair enough but Dier was only there for the first six months of Postecoglou's tenure if I remember correctly. It's not unusual for a 'system manager' to try and drill the basics into the players. It would have been interesting to ask him for a comparison between Postecoglou and Conte, for...

    Ange in or out?

    I don't plan on abusing you but I think you conveniently forget that Everton were beyond poor at this stage of the season. They didn't just 'take their chances', they were at the point where they couldn't create anything at all. Sometimes, you have to draw the line and what happened there was...

    Ange in or out?

    We keep speculating about what happens or doesn't happen on the training ground but one interesting thing to notice - I think - is that in spite of our abysmal results, very few players complain about Postecoglou or his methods. There have been a few noises coming from Romero and Maddison but...

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    It's a complicated matter. While I was against VAR, it's also true that before, you had some incredible stats and decisions (Man United went a ridiculous amount of time without conceding a penalty at OT or Pedro Mendes' disallowed goal at OT). Being a referee isn't the most glamourous job in the...

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    I'm sure they will but, on the flip side, if we only posted important information/thoughts on fans' message boards, every thread would struggle to go past the first page...

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    Since they can't be bothered with the league, I've decided to follow the same route: I'm preserving myself for the EL games and will only watch highlights for Premier League games. Considering the price of season tickets, it's always nice to know the players won't play for the fans...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    It's good for him that some people are still willing to side with him after everything but, quite frankly, you could make the exact same case for every manager we've had over the past 25+ years and possibly every human being that has ever lived (bar a few extreme cases I don't think need to be...

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    If we lose that game too, I hope someone at the club will have the decency to put him out of his misery. I really can't see us not winning there, but Southampton did get a draw with Crystal Palace so, who knows? I can't remember being that bored watching Spurs in a long, long time. We used to be...

    Ange in or out?

    First Spurs shirt I bought had Anderton's name on it. The kid that still lives in me will never accept to see him described as 'decent', Sir (to be clear: it's a semi tongue-in-cheek comment - to each their own, but every time I see his name, I remember the enthusiasm I felt when I watched him...

    Ange in or out?

    Shame on you for putting Sinton and Anderton in the same sentence. Anderton was an unfortunate victim of the standard of refereeing in the 90s and some incredibly poor managerial decisions, but at some point, he was regarded as being on a par with David Beckham. He reinvented himself twice in...

    Come on, show a little respect! We're not that bad!

    Ange in or out?

    It sure seems like nobody's interested in discussing him any more. I believe it's the first time I see a thread about the current manager turn into a debate on a totally different topic (but, admittedly, I'm a long-time poster but not a regular one).

    Ange in or out?

    They're not geniuses (well, maybe they are who am I to judge?). It's just plain logic. One mitigating factor, though, is that if he had kept Kane on the bench and we had still lost the game - which was a very likely outcome considering Liverpool were the better team -, the backlash would have...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Let's have a laugh and ask aria who should be the next Spurs manager!

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v The Cottagers ***

    I'm still on the fence with the clips. Sure, they're not a good look for the players but they also need to manage their output throughout the game. Nobody can run around at 100mph for 90s. So, rather than criticise their attitude, I'd say maybe they weren't very clever about - they didn't pick...

    Ange in or out?

    I believe another important aspect is how damaged our reputation was after sacking both Mourinho and Conte. We may think whatever we want about them, but their names still command - rightly or wrongly - a lot of respect in world football. There aren't that many people who'd be willing to bet on...

    Ange in or out?

    What I do find interesting is that you put the blame solely on the whisperer but don't seem to hold any grudge on the sucker who took the bait. It's not a dig, by the way. I've had the same conversation a week or two ago with a young man on a more dramatic topic (a woman being under the...
