    ENIC...

    Exactly my point! All of these things are correct. We had a great opportunity to finish fourth and didn't take it. But of the last eight games before the West Ham match, we won 5 and drew 1 (the one at Arsenal), losing at home to Man U (par for the course at the time) and away to Newcastle...

    ENIC...

    Dude: that's not bottling. Somebody had to finish fourth and somebody had to finish fifth. Arsenal, who "eroded the lead" because they had games in hand, were a better team that season (they reached the CL final, you'll remember). Nobody at the time accused Spurs of bottling anything. You're...

    ENIC...

    We didn't bottle anything in 2005-06. We were in the top four from early December (a home win against Sunderland) to the last day of the season.

    ENIC...

    The article in The Athletic last week cited a number of (naturally unnamed) sources as agreeing that Levy was "certainly the right man" to be leading the club in the current situation. Which I found encouraging. For all his faults and errors, we know that this is the kind of thing he is very...

    ENIC...

    Apologies if someone has already asked the question in this thread or another, but are recent/current events likely to be slightly less grave for Spurs (because of moving to the new stadium just in time) than for other clubs (Aston Villa will surely be in huge financial trouble for a variety of...

    Player Watch: Gedson Fernandes

    He was pretty good, wasn't he? Purpose to everything he did (apart from his shooting) and he was incisive. Obviously the reaction was coloured by his penalty (and looking at him in the preamble I'd have bet any money on him missing it), but I couldn't understand the Twitter criticism of his...

    ENIC...

    Am constantly amused by the number of people who complain that Levy and ENIC are in it "to make a profit". I should bloody well hope so! Do people want them to run the club at a loss? And have us follow Leeds? Or be where Newcastle and Villa are now? Or even Everton, who've spent a lot more...

    Spurs in Ireland

    Ha, I was there that night too!

    Race for The Top 10

    In case somebody didn't say this earlier (forgive me if so), I am EXTREMELY glad it was Chelsea - repulsive entity though they obviously are - rather than Man City who beat us to the title in 2017. To have been done out of it by a bunch of cheats would be unbearable even now - and as a Leeds fan...

    Short or long term plan?

    Do we have either..?!

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Sorry but that is FAR too sensible, practical and nuanced for some people here... Last night was the first time we had £140m worth of new talent (Lo Celso, Ndombele and Sessegnon) on the field at the same time this season. This is, largely, the XI that Pochettino WANTED and waited for (hence no...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Nothing personal, but this is one of the biggest piles of garbage I have read in a long time. Or, given that this is SC, in at least two days. The League Cup sf v Chelsea? We were short Kane, Son and Dele for the second leg. "Never properly led a title charge from the start"? Why should we...

    What the pundits & media are saying about us

    Manchester United are the most widely supported team in Ireland. There can be NO doubt about this. Liverpool certainly next. I was surprised just how many of them came out of the woodwork over the past year or two. Then again, they were the obvious team to support from the mid-1970s to the...

    Meet the real Marcus Edwards

    Fascinating piece. Am wondering how it came about. The Edwards camp looking to make a good impression on Pochettino, possibly?

    Famous Spurs Fans!

    Think I mentioned here before that Peter Robinson, former leader of the DUP, is a huge Spurs fan. As, it turns out, is the former Irish ambassador to the UK. The latter isn't a particularly interesting revelation, but he wrote a good piece on the subject the other day...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    The first paragraph here is exactly what I was saying to a friend of mine a couple of hours ago. We got out of jail (and let's face it, we deserved a feckin' break after all the things that went against us this season) - but it won't happen a second time. Twelve months ago it was clear - to me...

    The Spurs Youth Thread - 2018/19

    We're talking about the pic on the previous page and the tiny tot second from the left in the front row? I'd have gone with "looks about 6"... And fair play to him, he's obviously quite a player if he's able to perform against lads twice his size.
