A rock-solid 30-year-old, experienced defensive midfielder. Any ideas?

Are there any freebies floating about that would do a job to January?

Steve Appiah still hasn't been signed for anyone and i know he isn't a natural defensive midfielder he is a grafter.

I think if we can get to the transfer window still in touch with fourth from bottom and then we will do what we always do and buy ourselves out ofr trouble. My main problem is do we really trust the current regime to get in the right players because in the last two summer transfer window's they have signed garbage.

Football FanCast guest columnist Tim Bishop feels that the club should take a chance on a couple of freebies to try and steer Spurs out of their mess. They say life is never easy being a Spurs fan and this season has certainly proved no different. A car crash of an opening has already deflated even the most positive of Spur and we are all left to look ahead as to what we can possibly salvage from this sorry start. We never make life easy, but could Spurs fans imagine life any other way?

There has been a great amount of negativity doing the rounds and to be honest, I'm not surprised. I have always considered us the best fans in the world when things are going well, but our own worst critics when things go wrong. The media feast off our discontentment, try and stick a wedge between us and the club and they are well and truly succeeding - the result of their endeavours sees a plan protest against the board at Sunday's game at Bolton, it may seem a little rash, but supporters are seemingly left with little option given their inabilities to communicate and let fans know what the hell has been going on this summer.
One of the most worrying aspects of yesterday's game and a look ahead to up and coming fixtures against the likes of Bolton, Arsenal and Liverpool in the coming weeks is that if you look at the squad there are simply no areas that can be improved. Juande Ramos is stuck with the same group of players, who are continually letting him down and unless they suddenly wake up to their responsibilities; which they seemingly did when they went down to ten men, then we are going to be in serious trouble and possibly beyond the point of return before we get to the January window.
On the way down the M6 yesterday, talking about our concerns about the squad, one of our party suggested why the hell we don't make a move for Appiah and Ronaldo. After a moment's pause and realising he was talking about the fat Brazilian it certainly made a lot of sense and what has the club really got to lose. Both players are without football clubs, could be signed up right away and therefore what is the risk in offering them short term contracts until the end of January. It really is a case of everything to gain and very little to lose therefore it suddenly becomes a no brainer as to why the club shouldn't consider it, especially when you consider how woefully short of quality we are upfront and how we so dearly lack a holding midfielder. The club will certainly have to break their rigid pay structure in order to pay the type of wages that the Brazilian will command, but is it not worth the hit for a few months and see if he can fire us out of this mess?
