Here we go. Back to the Premier League after a busy week in Europe. Wayne Rooney is now suspended
for only 2 Euro 2012 matches (not 3 as originally set) but Manchester United are out of the
Champions League... I. ... Continue reading →
THFC1882 welcomes another guest writer on board. This time it's Glen Bocking.
Glen is an Essex boy but now lives in Stoke so is handily placed to attend this game. Glen's first
Spurs memories are the '91 FA Cup semi and final! Great start to his Spurs watching!
Tottenham Hotspur v Sunderland, White Hart Lane, Sunday 18th December, 3pm Kick
off
So on Thursday night Spurs European adventure for this season came to an end, despite a 4-0 win
at Shamrock. The perceived wisdom is that this is a blessing in disguise and can leave Harry
Redknapp and his team to concentrate on getting Spurs back into the Champions League.
The midweek Carling Cup fixtures are in the rear-view mirror and we're back to basics: The Premier
League. Let's jump right in. I. Chelsea @ Newcastle: After 13 league games played, Newcastle are
in the top four and Chelsea are not. ... Continue reading →
THFC1882 gives a debut to Siva who previews the Bolton game for us. Siva has
been a Spurs fan all his life and as the man puts it himself he was born with lilywhite in his
vains! The first game Siva remembers was when he was 5 or 6, Ledley King (or Mr Spurs for Siva)
is his favourite player and he likes a drink in the Bell and Hare pre match.
Al St. James Park si è consumata, in questo weekend di Premier League, la prima sconfitta
stagionale per il Newcastle, battuto da un grande Chelsea. Dopo un quarto di gioco arriva
l'occasionissima per il vantaggio dei Blues ma Lampard si fa neutralizzare un rigore. Gioia
rinviata di una ventina di minuti, infatti al 36' l'ivorianoContinua a leggere .
With Scott Parker as Errol Flynn as the dashing Lord Cardiganand Luka Modric as Commander In Chief
Lord Raglan Longest unbeaten run; longest winning run. Broken records to the left of us, broken
records to the right of us, into the Top Three rode... . I've heard of a bull in a china shop but a
pig in a record shop is a stretch too far.
Afternoon. I think this in the business is what they call a round-up. But seeing as I'm
not exactly sure what this business is or even if I'm in it, I'll just go ahead and scatter-gun
some nonsense at you and see if anything sticks.
Tottenham pull Cheltenham out of the old F.A Cup hat, then.
It wasn't pretty. On a cold December Sunday afternoon, Tottenham Hotspur saw off a resilient
Sunderland to record a 1-0 victory and get back to winning ways in the Premier League.
Winning ugly is the sign of champions. Not getting carried away here, I'm not suggesting Spurs
are going to win the title, there's a chance of it, but Manchester City are a scarily good outfit
and their neighbours are impossible to write off.
Not quite our immaculate selves against Sunderland.The JimmyG2 Column Nobody could accuse Harry of
being a dedicated follower of fashion. No rip-arsed jeans for Mr. Redknapp. On Sunday though he was
forced to have a closer inspection of the wardrobe. He decided to go with both belt and braces in
midfield and his favourite 'Ledley' cashmere overcoat in case the weather at The Lane turned nasty.
Spurs done a win; the other team didnae. That would by my conclusion of Sunday's meeting with
the floundering Wearsiders. And if that's not enough woodbine for your mind-pipe then I don't know
if we can go on meeting like this.
But, it's the festive season, I suppose, and I'm a generous sort.
If everyone can stop doing racisms for just one minute! Phew. Glad we got that sorted.
Rightio, ahead of tonight's big game with Chelsea, I've roped in one of the chaps behind the
fabulous movie trailer review site, Trailer Trash. It's Harry Thompson and he just happens to have
the grave misfortune of being a Blues fan.
This isn't going to be overly analytical of the game, THFC1882 is about to go
on it's Christmas holidays! Before that though we take a brief look at Tottenham Hotspur versus
Chelsea from The Lane.
On the balance of play both sides will have been satisfied with a point.
Everybody I talked to said the same thing – we were up for it like no other game in recent
memory. Not just a derby, this one has become more sour over the last few years. There's a bitter
edge to it, compared with the intense but long-standing rivalry with the Arsen*l, heightened by the
welcome but unusual sensation of being third and favourites.
A failed human being but a half decent centre half We laid out our
credentials; they received a rigorous examination and were eventually stamped and handed back with
the words 'Pretty damn good'. Top London team at Xmas for the first time in 15yrs and 3rd for the
first time in a lot longer, possibly 50yrs.
Merry tidings and whatnot. I trust you're all in good spirits? If not then I suggest you vamoose
down to your local retailer and get your hands on some as quickly as is humanly possible. If
anything it'll make reading this hogwash a darn sight easier.
To Carrow Road we head, then. A late evening kick-off with Norwich and the cold turkey leftovers
of a hectic Christmas schedule in the old Premier League.
La 18/a giornata di Premier League si è conclusa, ieri, con le ultime tre sfide in programma in
questo turno natalizio. Solo un punticino per l'Arsenal, fermato in casa dai Wolwes, mentre il
Tottenham ha espugnato Carrow Road e battuto il Norwich per 2 a 0 grazie ad una prova pazzesca
dell'asso gallese Gareth Bale;Continua a leggere .
The Arsenal legend Martin Keown saw a Gareth Bale double give Tottenham yet another win on Tuesday,
while Arsenal could only manage a draw against lowly Wolves, and he is sorry to admit that he
believes that Harry Redknapp's team is far superior to the Gunners this season. "While Spurs kept
two players, Arsenal lost [.
Tally-ho and merry new beginnings to you all! What grander way to spend those final few hours of
the year 2011 than in unchartered, unfamiliar and altogether more foreign waters. Swan infested
waters, you might say?
Hmm?
*silence*
Oh alright, maybe not- but there's no need to look at me like that.
