    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Can extend that to domestic cups too....since 2018 we've had wobbles at lower league opponents - Newport (draw), Rochdale (draw), Colchester (lost on pens), Middlesbrough (draw). Prior to that we consistently swatted aside lower league opponents.

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    FYI....we went on to lose this game 0-1 at Man Utd (Dec 2016) who were managed by.....:oops:

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    I'm sure that Conte had done his due diligence but I do worry that the club push the 'real estate angle' a bit too much - constantly talking up the facilities at the training ground and stadium. As Poch famously said (and I paraphrase) its no point having the gorgeous mansion without having any...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    # If you'll indulge me and look at the post in the match thread I'd suggest that crap performances in europa extend way beyond Mourinho. Ever since we first qualified for the CL in 2010 our attitude (as a club) to europa/europa conference has stunk of indifference and arrogance.

    OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Ns Mura

    Just for further analysis...these are our away results in group stages from 2006 through until 2008/09 which is prior to our first CL qualification in 2010 (we did not qualify for europe at all in 2009/10) 2006: Besiktas 2-0 Leverkusen 1-0 2007/08: Hapoel Tel Aviv 2-0 Anderlecht 1-1 2008/09...

    The Game Is About Glory - Tactics, Passion and Projects

    Really good pod guys. As for Leeds game - i don't think the booing at half-time was appropriate but its hard to analyse in hindsight now that we can see how the second half played out and that ultimately that was Conte's plan - Leeds scoring did come out the blue (they may have had a lot of...

    OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Ns Mura

    This feels like groundhog day and I'm sure i'm writing something almost identical to post Vitesse, Zagreb and further back. Whilst last night was another clusterfudge of a performance with question marks over selection, individual performance and tactical approach take a step back and view this...

    The Game Is About Glory - Spurs In The 90s

    That was a great performance, goal and result as Blackburn would go on to become champions. It was a live Super Sunday so observed by the (sky sports subscribing) nation! From memory Sherwood scored their goal?

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Potter was the outstanding candidate in the summer. I can only think that Poch's sudden availability threw Levy on a complete red herring which bizarrely then seemed to cause a reaction of appointing a DofF having previously indicated that they didn't need one. Potter not only seems an...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Although Nuno was a Mendes client none of the players we signed in the summer, or even many of those we were linked with, were in Mendes' stable. I don't think he holds any power within the club.

    The Game Is About Glory - A Bad Plan, Poorly Executed

    Last Word on Spurs' USP is that they're usually the first to record to drop but unless I see that Jason McGovern is on its just a load of ranting and knee jerking. Hope you'll get more out of us though and Kenneth Branagh's cameo at the start will set the tone!!

    Harry Kane MBE

    It strikes me that over the last 2 years Kane's relationship with the club appears to have become more of a transactional one than a relationship of deep rooted feeling and emotion. i.e. you pay me well and I'll score lots of goals for you. He's felt like Harry Kane the World Class Striker...

    Next Manager?

    This is a really interesting point - I remember Sherwood was announced just as Arsenal v Chelsea kicked off on a Monday Night game! I thought at the time it was Levy way of trying to steal their limelight but probably it was to sweep it under the carpet?!

    Next Manager?

    Purely from a PR/Comms perspective today (Tuesday) would be a good day for the announcement - enough time has passed since the England match on Sunday. Tomorrow morning is fixture release day and by Thursday it will be the build up to England v Scotland which will then dominate coverage Friday...

    The Game Is About Glory - Danny...Danny Rose

    Glad you enjoyed the pod. I think the difference between Rose/Kane interview is the timing. Kane's exasperation was largely all shared by the fans. Rose's interview in 2017 came just weeks after we'd recorded our 86 point season, had just come off an emotional high after the WHL season and I...

    Next Manager?

    I don't buy the FA Cup gives you momentum argument - teams either win it because they've got such a great and deep squad that they can deal with a sustained cup run - or they win the cup at the expense of league form and progression - Look at Woolwich - 4 FA Cup wins since 2014 yet they've got...

    Next Manager?

    I know very little of ZZ and his motivations but he doesn't strike me as a 'Project Manager' who's going to drop even to the relative depths of a Sevilla or Villareal. I would say that PSG, Juventus or Bayern are probably the clubs he'll next end up at.

    Next Manager?

    Of course we will never know the in's and out's. However, I'm sure Santini was appointed and was expected to be in role for far longer than he was. Therefore, Jol taking over when he did was a reaction to an unexpected event. It's funny that Santini's appointment followed a 9 month process from...

    Next Manager?

    Under ENIC 9 permanent managers have been appointed (though I have included Sherwood who was given an 18-month contract but we all suspected it was a glorified Caretaker appointment). Three have been Summer (off-season) changes - Santini, AVB and Poch. The other six have, have been mid-season...
