    BLOG POST - THE STREAK.....

    The Streak…and what it means Should Spurs get beaten at Emirates Marketing Project on Saturday night (and I dont think I’m speaking out of turn to suggest that this seems quite an inevitable outcome for most Spurs fans) it will be a 4th successive league defeat; the first time Spurs have suffered such...

    The Ultimate Humiliation

    Last night was very much a 'humiliation' - there are several ingredients to a 'humiliation' - its invariably a self-inflicted result and generally one that makes you feel as though you've just been spotted naked meaning you want to lock yourself away for days to avoid the mocking eyes of your...

    Squad and matchday team selection analysis

    Just been looking through some recent line up's and matchday squads to better be able to predict how Mourinho might use the squad most effectively throughout the remainder of the season. I'm plagiarising the Extra Inch podcast (other good podcasts are available including our very own The Game...

    BLOG - IS JOSE IN THE LAME DUCK ZONE?

    Sorry - this is far too long for a thread but gather there is no longer a blog feed. In need of some cathartic reflection last night I have explored when Levy has pulled the trigger on previous managers. With just 9 points from the last 9 games Jose is getting perilously close.... I’ve always...

    Defending (1-goal) leads at the hour mark.....

    With so much frustration over the way we defend (or don't defend) leads I thought I'd have a look at some data. I've looked at any games since Jose took over in which we were leading by 1 goal after 60 minutes and what the outcome of the match was. During Jose's time this has occurred on 12...

    Erik Thorstvedt - was he all that?

    I feel blasphemous even thinking this but having watched back several of the end of season reviews (what else is there to do during international break?) it struck me how many mistakes Erik the Viking made which cost us goals. As a kid Erik was right up there with Gazza and Lineker and I'd have...

    Lost chants of White Hart Lane

    This isn't really specific to WHL so thought it warrants its own thread but having been watching back some old clips you can hear some chants that are just not sung anymore. Namely: 1. Spelling out Tottenham 2. Simply singing the score (when winning) 3. "If you know your history" (seems to...

    sexy equivalents

    Ok, we're all fed up with the sexy thing particularly when used against us (although we do all seem to embrace the term internally!). Thought we could try and come up with some alternatives for our nearest and dearests. It has to work in a football and 'real-life' context i guess: Spammersy...

    Who should we envy?

    this topic has come up in a couple of threads but think it's worth discussing as its own subject. Which club, and it's fans, should we envy for the season that's just been? I'm sure that 2015/16 unlike very few before, is one we can rightly be very happy with our season. I'm convinced that...

    It's always them...and them....and them

    Just to keep you all thoroughly depressed I've been mulling over our greatest disappointments (not Soldado and Paulinho) in recent years and it seems uncanny how often they seem to come at the hands of Woolwich, Chavski and the spammers. Disappointments defined as losing in important...

    Blowing AWAY the cobwebs of mediocrity....a look at our progress ‘on the road’

    GPRD81 submitted a new blog post Blowing AWAY the cobwebs of mediocrity....a look at our progress ‘on the road’ Having started supporting Spurs in 1988 and then enduring the 90’s and early 2000’s Spurs playing away from home, particularly outside of London, almost certainly meant I wouldn’t...

    We're crap away!

    Whilst looking forward to tonights game I was reflecting on our away form and it dawned on me that we haven't won a big away game since winning at Man Utd on NYD 2014 and even that looks less spectacular when you consider United finished 7th that season and also lost at home to Saudi Sportswashing Machine and...

    Biggest Summer Signings

    Thought I'd take you on a journey back over the past 25 years or so to think about who our big Summer signings have been which I hope will generate some discussions about which was the best, worst, bizarre and jaw dropping. My list is certainly not exhaustive so feel free to add others. 2014...

    End of season analysis: Game by game thread

    Before you read on just a few important views to express: Poch will almost certainly achieve par finish of the season of 6th place with a Cup Final as a bonus. He is not solely responsible for the negative things that have happened this season There are several players in the squad who he...

    Other clubs' 'glory years'

    It dawned on me the other day how since I've supported Spurs (late 80's) all of: L'Arse ('89 - '94 and '98 - 2005) Chelski ('05 - ) Man Utd ('90 - ) and Emirates Marketing Project (2011 - ) have all had the most successful periods in their club histories and we've had to live through it. Is this just a...

    2015/16 Europa League - Round of 16: Borussia Dortmund

    This subject has been discussed on previous threads but really needs its own independent thread preferably stickied. Someone did a really good diagram on another thread: Put Simply the equation for us this season is as follows: If Arsenal win the FA Cup: If we finish 5th in the League we...

    Saudi Sportswashing Machine v Dr Tottenham OMT - Sunday 19th April

    Have you lost 5 games in a row? Are your fans so disillusioned with your club that 15000 are threatening to boycott the match? Do you desperately need a performance and result to bring light to a thoroughly miserable season? Is your Manager tactically way out of his depth? Is your best...
