    Tottenham banned in Sweden

    Well sort of ... :shifty:. A Spurs superfan has been denied the right to change his name to 'Tottenham' due to a new law introduced in 2017. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jul/15/man-sweden-change-name-tottenham-denied-disappointed

    Juan Quintero

    I don't know anything about the reliability of the source but we are apparently being linked with the talented Colombian playmaker here https://www.lanueva.com/nota/2018-6-28-18-47-0-tottenham-tambien-mostro-interes-en-juan-francisco-quintero This (if true :cautious:) is music to my ears. I've...

    Improving at poker

    I thought i'd start a thread where we can share tips about improving our poker. This isn't a thread for bad beat stories (that already exists) but one for the serious students of the game. I'll readily admit i'm not a good player. In fact when I first started playing regular poker tournaments...

    Relegated team players you'd like us to buy.

    Who are the candidates? We all know the dwarf loves a bargain and relegated teams usually need to sell. So far QPR & Burnley are down with Hull, Newcastle, Sunderland, Leicester and Villa battling to avoid joining them. QPR - There's Austin of course and possibly Fer but the one I like the...

    Your favourite/least favourite Spurs' signings at the time (no hindsight)

    This thread is not about whether you were right or wrong but rather which signings you most loved/hated when we made them. Favourite - 1/ Luka Modric - Absolutely loved it when we signed ratboy. I'd been a huge fan since I saw him play against Arsenal in Europe and had been banging on about...

    Welcome to the pity party

    Just thought i'd create a thread to preserve for posterity all the Spurs related tantrums we find in this forum. The idea is so that we can find them with ease and enjoy the schadenfreude of rubbing them in the poster's face at a later date. Hopefully this will result in more reasoned debate and...

    The repentance thread

    So hands up who wasn't convinced Pochettino was the right choice to be our manager? I'll admit I was one of the doubters :oops:. I didn't hate the appointment but I was firmly in the 'don't know' category. All the managers we were linked with (LVG, FDB, Rafa etc) seemed to have flaws. I suppose...

    Spurs surpassed expectations in the 2013-14 premiership season

    Before everybody hits the WTF button please understand this is not my opinion but the opinion of the bookies, or, to be more accurate the spread betting firms. At the start of each season the bookmakers issue a handicap form and the spread betting companies issue a list of expected points for...

    Levy's deals

    We all know Levy loves the small print so I was just wondering if we might be in for a tidy bonus if Real Madrid win the Champions League as part of the Bale and Modric transfers? Anyone got any ITK on this? It would be the only thing that would make me want them to win it :mad:.

    Ryan Fredericks

    Impressed by the lad tonight. I'm wondering as his progress as a RB is blocked by Kyle Walker whether he might be converted into a right winger? Silly idea or not?

    Reasons to be cheerful

    Since the West Ham debacle positives on this forum seem to be about as welcome as they would be for a HIV test. Are things really that bad? Now normally i'm a bit of a glass half empty man myself but the general attitude here seems to be that not only is the glass half empty but it's got a nasty...

    Dodging bullets

    Watching Willian for Chelsea last night reminded me how pleased I was that we got gazumped for a player I thought was overpriced and overrated, so I thought i'd open a thread on the players we were linked with that in retrospect we are delighted we didn't get. Personally I was a huge fan of...

    Sporting Index Premiership points spreads.

    SPIN have just issued their premiership points spreads for next season. Spurs are priced 65.5-67. I've bought at 67 for £100 a point. We managed 72 last season and with Sandro & Kaboul returning and Paulinho and Chadli added I fancy us to better that. Obviously if we sign Soldado and keep Bale...

    Can we give Chelsea some payback?

    It seems that every time we look like we are going anywhere as a club someone comes in and taps up and steals our best player. It happened with Carrick and Berbatov and now Chelsea have unsettled Modric with their derisory bid. We know that complaining to the FA will get us nowhere so is there...
