    For the penalty should the keeper not have got a red card?

    Loan Watch: Alfie Devine

    He clearly made a very good impression. Sounds like just the sort of player that Ange would like too. Can't help contrasting this with what Leeds said about Djed Spence. Shows clubs really notice what happens on and off the pitch.

    Funnily enough, that was exactly my reaction.

    Ange Postecoglou backs refs as he reiterates Spurs beliefs

    In a red-hot atmosphere like Monday night players and referees will make mistakes. For what it's worth I thought Michael Oliver generally got it right, but if he made mistakes they certainly weren't malicious or biased. Ange has shown the best way to deal with defeat and failure, and it's not...

    He sure does. Now he's having to score from his own half.

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    This is very largely true, but there are the odd fans who genuinely appreciate the football played by clubs other than their own . It's these, which avoid the dreary repetitive tribalism that's the norm, which I find refreshing and why I return here - to see stuff like the Red Cafe comments...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    I know we love to slag off other team's fans but you've got to say these guys are pretty generous when their own team is so rubbish. For some people at least we seem to be their new second team , like a long time ago Keegan's Newcastle used to be. The team people like simply because they like...

    I understand what you're saying and hope you're right. I've just been a Spurs fan for too long and never underestimate our ability to get over-confident and screw up the "easy" games. But it's fair to say Ange seems to do what's necessary for every game. So I'm totally relaxed now. I wish.

    He's collected six yellows in nine games. It'll be a miracle if he gets through the next ten games without one more. He's been so important for us he needs to play. Getting a win tonight is vital. Anyway, hopefully Bentancourt will be available soon. I'm sure he's been spoken to about the...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    One theme running through all these is the likeability of Ange, even with fans who hate Spurs. You can see why our team is so united and resilient. They really want to do it for him and it means he can then launch into them, as he did about the second half performance last night, and they'll...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    I thought they were generally fair and intelligent discussing their chances against us. They are obviously very hopeful that Bissouma's absence will weaken us, which is understandable. I love the bit where one of them says Spurs at their best can beat anyone in the league and they all suddenly...

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium vandalised

    Bernie Ecclestone a few days ago pleaded guilty to fraud in relation to failing to declare 400 million pounds worth of assets to the UK tax authorities and avoided immediate custody. He got a 17 month suspended sentence and has agreed to pay 652 million to Inland Revenue.

    Premier League 2023/2024

    Am I the only one nervous after hearing reports last week that people at Man City had been talking admiringly of Ange and today a report that Pep G doesn't intend to sign a new contract in 2025? I thought Pep and his team looked generally bored and listless yesterday against Arsenal, as if...

    Match Threads Luton vs Tottenham - Match Day 8 - Oct 7th - KO 12:30pm

    I think he should have scored but in The Telegraph (behind a pay wall unfortunately) there's a photo showing his shirt being pulled very obviously by a defender. I don't think it should have stopped him scoring but we should have had a penalty if VAR was on the ball. Obviously if we were...

    I think it's more to do with having a solid and reliable partner. He doesn't feel the need to jump in all the time, knowing VDV is there to cover and mop stuff up. Last season he must have felt like it all depended on him.

    Klopp wants Tottenham-Liverpool replay after VAR error

    It's a shame because I thought Klopp's initial reaction after the match was sensible and dignified. He's an intelligent man and has obviously been advised that a replay won't happen but has decided to to use the current sense of grievance to help his team feel united. Fergie used to do the same...
