    Another Fit and Proper Owner

    You thought Tan's obsession with 'lucky' red was pretty nutty? It seems perfectly sane compared to this: http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/jul/03/massimo-cellino-leeds-united-paddy-kenny

    John Ryden

    Sometime captain and CB 1955-61, passed away Friday, aged 82. I have only a very hazy recollection of him, but maybe Cosmic or one of the others who go back a little further than I do can supply more info. RIP John. http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/john-ryden-rip-200813/?

    Ferry Lane Roadworks

    If you come in by car via the Hale Gyratory, be aware that there are major alterations to the layout in progress, which means that it's currently Cone City and liable to give drivers a WTF? moment or two if they come upon it unsuspecting.

    Who: Smokeydid Date: 16th August Site: SO Deals in pipeline But won't complete deals until we sell or loan some more players first. Nothing to do with money, we have money to buy players. The reason is because we have 29 players in squad they need to fit into 25 man squad rule, if we buy...

    Sour grapes? Absolutely not!

    Gems from Arsenal-Mania: Only impressive if you rate Inter and AC this season fabo- which I don't. (And Arsenal did so awesomely well against Barça!) I'm sure there will be much more from Mong Central at: http://arsenal-mania.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=99781&start=1260

    Roadworks—Potential Traffic Problems

    Just to say that Lordship Lane is closed westbound (i.e., towards Wood Green) at the High Road. This has caused traffic snarl-ups in Tottenham during the day so could well create problems tomorrow ad possibly Saturday. Will update tomorrow afternoon.

    Comedy Defending/Keeping

    Referred to this farce in the Bundesliga thread. Boggle as Kaka, under no particular pressure, powers a bullet header past his own keeper. Boggle even more as Hertha's sub keeper charges out of his area, heads the ball straight to Jarolim, falls over and watches the ball fly in from half a...

    Another Levy thread- Credit

    Reports of the immediacy of their demise may be exaggerated, but perhaps not by too much. Brian Oliver, a Pompey fan, wrote this in the Guardian in January, shortly after JD's departure...
