    Had to bite my tongue

    The first football teams to wear numbers were in Australia, beginning in 1911. Once again, Goons copying a good idea and claiming they invented it.

    VDV : "Spurs are bigger than Arsenal!"

    Yeah, Ferguson needs his money -- he does a good job with the top players he gets, but he has (up until recently when the purse strings were drawn tighter) had a very scattershot approach to buying players, even with the luxury of the best-paid scouting network in England and the ability to...

    ** Spurs Community Fantasy Football 2010/11 **

    I'm thinking about changes and while I will definitely make some I am planning to wait till next week so that I've got 2 free transfers. I reckon it's better to be able to, for example, drop two 7m players and have a 14m kitty for one week than to have two lots of 7m available. If you go one...

    Adel Taarabt - Our Young Player of Next Season?

    You are correct, but the cut-off date is 1st of January this year for squad purposes, so he still qualifies for under-21.

    [Update 114] rebrab re:BAE

    He's just trying to play it cool. He is French after all. I for one would be sad to see him go -- yes he switches off at times, but in general he is one of the best left-backs in the league. Who are you going to replace him with?

    Bandwagon

    I started seeing a lot more Spurs shirts/merchandise being worn around Hong Kong (i.e. any) around the middle of last season. Good times!

    ** Spurs Community Fantasy Football 2010/11 **

    The only advantage of a midfielder, IIRC is they don't lose points for conceded goals. So yeah, defender would be better for Bale. If only Wolves' Jody Craddock were classed as a midfielder though, eh?

    It might work out. Don't defenders get more points for goals?

    Champions League Play Off Draw.......

    "For once, Arsenal aren't the only team in North London hoping to draw young boys." That should cover it.

    Why Eidur? Why?

    At the risk of stating the obvious, people who do the Nazi salute (or Roman salute, as Italian fascists a la di Canio would have it) without mockery don't also do the Hitler moustache.

    Agreed. Although credit to nferno for using the word "morlocks". This place doesn't have enough HG Wells references!

    Forget record signings - it's our facilities that are dashing our CL hopes and dreams

    No, it's not to do with recovery from injury between games. It's to do with conditioning for overall stamina. If you have a faster 'recovery' time between sprints, it means you have to spend less time resting before you can run at top speed again. It's an issue of aerobic performance, unaffected...

    Forget record signings - it's our facilities that are dashing our CL hopes and dreams

    This means that when he runs he gets tired, but training at simulated altitude means he gets his energy back quicker and is soon able to run at full pace again. This is conditioning for in-match fitness, recovery from being tired, not to do with recovery from injury.

    Day I was born I was brought home to here. And that was on this day. Done deal, really.
