    When is clattering into a goalie a foul?

    Thinking back to the opening Euro game on Friday night....I was sure it was a foul by Giroud on the Romanian keeper for the opening French goal that Giroud headed in. The keeper was literally just about to catch it and Giroud jumped into him, clearly knocking the keeper's arm away meaning he...

    Spurs have the youngest starting XI in the Premier League

    We have the youngest average age of starting XIs this year in the league. If anyone doubts there is hope for the future then the fact that we're still competing for fourth place and getting to cup finals with such a young team should give us hope. Throw in another summer of coaching, new...

    Will Arsenal deliberately try to injure Bale....or are they above that??

    Put yourself in Arsenal's shoes. Stop Bale and you take a lot of our firepower away. Would Wenger or any of the Arsenal players be dirty enough to try to get Bale crocked for the rest of the season and race for fourth by going in hard with a few bad challenges on Sunday?

    Regular captain????

    I know we've debated this before but..... Dawson, Gallas, Parker have all worn the armband. Neither Dawson or Gallas play regularly enough to be captain. Parker is probably the best option for the remainder of the season even if his current form is below par. Vertonghen a definite...

    Most interceptions in the Premier League - Sandro

    Sandro has made the most interceptions in the Premier League this season (48). Suppose it helps that he has been playing a lot more minutes this season.

    11,000 empty seats against Lazio

    Pity to see 11,000 seats empty last night. Top class opposition, new signings and basically a full Spurs team out. Is it purely down to the recession, high ticket prices, or maybe a hangover from the last couple of years and fans are assuming the kids will be playing?? What happens when we...

    GOLF: No more Open Championship at St Andrews, Muirfield, Troon etc??

    If Scotland go ahead and become independant from Britain however many years from now, does that mean that the Open Championship cannot be played at St Andrews, Muirfield, Turnberry, Troon, Carnoustie as they will no longer be part of Britain?? Or, because the R&A have their HQ in Scotland does...

    Jermain Defoe

    Defoe was on Talksport this morning. Wouldn't commit to Tottenham when asked, said he just wants to play football and he'll wait and see what the summer brings. Inviting transfer offers on live radio to be honest.

    Can you name a ginger goalkeeper?

    After Bogdan performed heroics against us last week, me and a few mates started discussing the fact that there are, and have been, hardly any top flight ginger keepers (either here or around the world). I could only think of Mike Hooper from Liverpool a good few years ago. Is the ginger...

    Most tackles in Prem league - Scott Parker

    I know there is another thread about Parker at the moment, but didn't want this to get lost several pages in. As of two days ago (26th March), Parker has made the most tackles in the Prem League this year. This is what our midfield has been missing for years. Keep it up Scott.

    Bale getting slagged off on Talksport this morning

    Bale getting a real slagging from Richard Keys and Peter Reid this morning due to quotes from Bale in an interview. They're saying that Bale is admitting he's dived this year and proud that he's got people sent off. They're saying they are extraordinary quotes. But here is what Bale actually...

    Saha 'a done deal' according to Phil McNulty BBC

    Saha to Spurs is looking a done deal according to BBC's Phil McNulty. Not what I was hoping for today if true.

    Our pathetic short corners!!!

    Anyone else scream for us just to get the ball in the box when we get a corner or free kick?? So many times we take it short, and end up not even getting the ball in the box. It's forced backwards and before you know it our corner is being passed back to our centre backs on the half way line...

    Alan Hansen on our title hopes......from BBC website

    Tottenham's win over Everton on Wednesday means they are only three points behind leaders Manchester City at the top of the Premier League, and there is no doubt Harry Redknapp's side are now genuine contenders for the title. Go back a month or so, and it looked like a two-horse race between...

    Adebayor ALMOST saying he still loves Arsenal

    Anyone else see Match of the Day on Saturday night - Adebayor's interview after the match. Please tell me I imagined that he almost said he still loves Arsenal. He was trying to explain he had good times there and finished by saying 'I still love lov.......' and seemed to stop himself...

    James Beattie??

    If Pav is leaving come January, would Beattie be a possible option given his fall out with Pulis at Stoke? He puts himself about and knows how to find the net. I know going from Pav to Beattie might be seen by many as trading in your Mercedes for a Ford Fiesta, but he's experienced in this...

    Agony of the summer transfer window

    It wears me out. Week after week of getting excited, then worried, having my hopes raised, checking the BBC Gossip Column every single day and the Tottenham Hotspur Newsnow site every hour at work. Anybody else wish it could all just be over and you wake up tomorrow and it's the end of August...
