Well that wasn't fun was it? Maybe for about 15 minutes it was but the rest of the game was hard to watch. Here is the braveKenny Palmerwith his report of the game.

Andre Villas-Boas Spurs suffered a resounding 5-2 defeat in the Portuguese managers first North London Derby in a game defined by the sending off of Togolese international Emmanuel Adebayor.

With transfer deadline approaching fast this Friday, Gareth Johnson gives THFC1882 his unique and funny viewpoint of who the likely candidates are to leave and how he would approach the job:

Look behind the pesto AVB, look behind the pesto!

A bad week got a lot worse as Spurs put in an awful team display to lose at home to Wigan after they were knocked out of the Capital Cup by Norwich earlier in the week.Kenny Palmerlooks at where we went wrong and how external factors aren't helping the club at present.

Tottenham deservedly slumped to their second home defeat in the league, in the process suffering back to back home defeats in the league for the first time since 2008, while also failing to score for the first time in thirty home league games in by far our worst performance of the season to a Wigan side that were superior in every department.

Andre Villas-Boas was denied his redemption and revenge as Roberto Di Matteo's Chelsea confirmed their status as the Barclays Premier leagues pace setters with a deserved win over Tottenham, although a 4-2 score line was flattering for the visitors.

Andre Villas-Boas' men continued their excellent run of form with a fourth consecutive victory on Sunday, this time beating Paul Lambert's well drilled Aston Villa side 2-0, with both goals coming midway through the second half.

If you are in any doubt and still can't quite believe it the scoreline is correct. Andre Villas-Boas and the boys went to Old Trafford and had no fear, as after all long standing records are meant to be broken right?

Here'sKenny Palmerwith the review of the thrilling game on Saturday:

Andre Villas-Boas's Tottenham put an end to the 23 year Old Trafford hoodoo and also sent out a statement of intent with an impressive away win against last season's Premiership runners-up Manchester United.

So I believe the term that sums it up best after the game on Sunday is that we got away with one.

After a dreadful first half display in which we were rightly trailing at the break, we have to give Andre Villa-Boas and the players due credit for turning it around in the second half and getting our first home win of the campaign.

After a great display to come with our first victory of the seasonKenny Palmerreflects on the win on Sunday.

A Jermain Defoe brace capping off an excellent individual display upfront by the diminutive striker helped Andre Villas-Boas's Tottenham to their first win of the season.

After a disappointing opening day result with positives at St James Park, Gareth Johnson shares with THFC1882 his thoughts on the match as he watched from the stands and what lies ahead this season for us.

The opening day of any season is always special for me.

The season is done and dusted, 4th place it is then but as we know because of Chelsea's antics in the Champions League final we have no Champions League football down at the Lane next season. Â What impact this will have to the squad, with players in and out, is unknown for the time being, but that is discussion for another day, along with a whole host of subjects that this blog will try and delve into over the summer months.

So here it is. Last day of the season and the all important game that could decide a variety of issues as we go into the summer. Manager, players in and out and if we are dining at the big boys table next season. To be honest, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this thinking, I'm truly disappointed that 3rd place isn't signed, sealed and confirmed already and this game being the celebration of that for the Spurs faithful.

The season is nearly over and as we go into our penultimate game of the season the Champions League qualification spot is still up for grabs as is 3rd place! THFC1882 is pleased have Mike Hooley back to preview the game.

Following a very encouraging 4-1 victory on Wednesday night away at Bolton, which itself came hot on the heels of a home win against Wanderers' fellow Lancashire relegation candidates Blackburn, Spurs face a third team threatened with relegation on Sunday afternoon.

A trademark performance from 2 months ago leaves Tottenham Hotspur right in the hunt for Champions League football still. 2 wins down, 2 to go. Adam Nathan reflects on the match from last night.

Let's take a vote. At 1-1 last night, was there anyone who thought that Spurs, our Spurs, with two wins in ten miserable outings, would pick themselves up, transform into the players we all know they can be and dismantle a spirited Bolton on a ground that we had never recorded a league win?

Another game, another win a must. No letting up now. Adam Nathan is back for the preview and some other thoughts.

Another quiet week at the Lane.

One win down, 3 to go. Do we have our Tottenham Hotspur back? Â Kenny Palmer reviews Sunday's game.

A restorative performance and win against an abject Blackburn lifted Tottenham back to the coveted 4th place in the league.

Tottenham welcomed back Younes Kaboul and Emmanuel Adebayor from injury while Sandro came in for the injured Scott Parker as Harry Redknapp setup the team in the favoured 4-4-1-1 formation which has produced Spurs best displays this season.

4 games left, 4 wins required. Kenny Palmer steps up to the mike to preview the match.

Sunday's game against Blackburn is the first of the four matches which will ultimately define Harry Redknapps four year tenure as Tottenham manager.

Sigh. We can't go on like this.

Spurs continued their alarming run of form with a dismal 1-0 defeat to QPR. Coming into the match, Spurs were expected to arrest their slide against one of the Premier League's new boys.

THFC1882 is very thankful to Ciaran Griggs who has the unenviable task after last Sunday's game, of previewing the massively important QPR match this Saturday evening.

The Easter programme didn't bring much joy to most Tottenham Hotspur supporters as we only managed to get 1 point from the 6 that were on offer. We have now let the surprise package of the season Newcastle Utd catch us with Chelsea laying in wait for any further mistakes in the race for Champions League qualification.
