    Short or long term plan?

    So with the news about Kane, it makes the next 3 weeks or so even more important, to us fans at least. But what will the board think? On the one hand, we could say that this season has been a nightmare, it's been full of bad luck and injuries, write it off and although we won't get the...

    a time for unity

    Pochettino was an amazing manager for Tottenham Hotspur and his work will always be remembered. From helping build the team from mid table no hopers to within 90 mins of European champions. His legacy will remain and he will go on to have an excellent career and potentially be known as one of...

    Emotional investment

    One thing the last few weeks has taught me, and I suppose you become more acutely aware during the 'bad times', is I'm far too emotionally invested in something I have no control over, doesn't *really* matter in the long run, and something that only serves to make rich people richer. When...

    Painful rebuild

    Oh how accurate Poch was with his 'Painful rebuild' quotes. Whether he saw this coming I don't know, but it's depressing to think that Toby/Jan/Eriksen all probably leaving on a free in the summer (they aren't going in January so that can be forgotten) That's 3 first team, and key players...

    Tottenham and our slow starts

    Because: 1. Its annoyed me for ages 2. It's getting progressively worse 3. I'm a sad **** Looking back at the last 2 seasons, and the beginning of this season. We've played a total of 115 games, in which we've conceded first 45 times (39%). I'd be amazed if that is anywhere near comparable...

    Season defining fortnight

    I don't believe it's it too drastic to say this next fortnight could well define our season. 3 games against our rivals, 2 against our nearest rivals and two Cup games. I'd expect a comfortable win against Newport at Home now but a bit like before the Xmas period, it looks like we're a bit...

    Set pieces

    Looking back at the season so far, we've conceded 7 goals as a result of a set piece. 6 corners and 1 free kick. Surely after last season that would have been something to look at? The amount of goals that are scored directly as a result of a set piece are relatively small, so complaining of...

    Brave New World: Inside Pochettino's Spurs

    Anyone got it, and is it worth getting? I know it only came out today, but after a few of the pieces in the papers it sounded like it might be a real insight, yet from what I've read on various places it sounds like a disappointment

    Chances of a derby ticket?

    Am I pissing in the wind in the hope of getting a ticket for the derby? If anyone has one going or knows someone who's legit :cautious: then I'd happily give you a reach around *reach around only valid after I have the ticket

    Bergkamp wonderland podcast... Rubbish?

    Forgive the name of the thread and having a mention of any of "their" players. A gooner mate of mine put me in the direction of the Bergkamp wonderland podcast on YouTube and said that from the latest one "189 three men in a boat" there was some interesting stuff relating to spurs. If you...

    Tickets for next season at Wembley

    Has anything been mentioned about the ticketing for next season and more importantly the prices? Living it the Midlands it is a nightmare to get to games and that's without the cost and availability of tickets, but getting to Wembley is pretty OK and you'd like to think tickets would be...

    Toby

    bit of a self indulgent thread I know but this morning another spurs fan was brought into the world. A little lad called Toby. In years to come the debate won't be about alderweireld or Ledley, it'll be about which Toby held the champions league trophy highest. I've already got his Spurs baby...

    Big reaction/response needed

    I hope the boys can pull out a repeat of Dier's comments last season before the city game at home and specifically "I hear people say stuff about Tottenham and I don’t like it. I don’t think the other lads like it either" I say this because right now, every fan of every club, including us, is...

    Ticket mix up, can anyone swap?

    Not sure this is the right place but it's pretty desperate. I've just bought 2 tickets for the spurs game v Moscow, only to realise I've got something else on that I can't miss on the same night :( The tickets were part of a birthday present for my old man and it's required me to take leave to...

    Teams giving extra motivation

    Looks like the scum are up to their old tricks, and Ian Wright/Rio Ferdinand agree it should give their opponents greater motivation to win. Its a cliché but its true that things like this need to be hung in the changing room. The games against Chelsea always have the obvious derby bragging...

    Your favourite player?

    I was asked this question today and it suddenly struck me, I've got absolutely no idea. I'm seeing that as a great thing and something we haven't had for years. Hugo because, well he's Hugo! Kane is obviously the poster boy and the headline grabber Dembele is so important to our system...

    Man/Woman/Child in the stand wonders

    There have been many threads or discussions in the past related to our fans and the sometimes fickle nature of the crowds at games but especially the last few months I think the fans have been absolutely incredible and deserve a pat on the back as we form as much a part of the team as the...

    Would any of our better players leave if we dont make CL

    Its a question that is bound to be asked, and one I disagree with personally as I cant see any leaving, even if we dont make the CL as I feel they have all bought into the project set out under Pochettino, especially with the new stadium on its way etc. I suppose those at "risk" of leaving...

    Signed shirts for sale

    Not sure if there is a special place for stuff like this but I've got a couple of shirts for sale. One is a replica 1981 cup final shirt signed by Ricky Villa and another is the 2011/2012 squad on a home shirt. Only problem is I don't have COA for either (had one for the Villa shirt but lost...

    A plea to those of you on twitter....SPAMsterdam

    This may seem like a very odd thread but fellow SC'ers, I need your help. I currently play in a futsal team in birmingham, and we are the current champions of our league (we got a nice shiny trophy and everything) and we have potentially got the opportunity to compete in a tournament in...
