Huge Desires

THBN - Tottenham Hotspur Blog News 18 November @ 05:07 AM EST
I thought Daniel Levy was the Tottenham Hotspur Chairman? I was mistaken. It now seems that Mr. Pavlyuchenko is the Chairman of the Board.
"I am prepared to accept any decent offer from Russia", said our new Chairman.
Coming back to reality; it looks as though our Cameron Diaz lookalike is so eager to leave us, he's bypassed all forms of control at White Hart Lane. Click to continue reading...

Spurs are big spenders

Soccer Tickets Online 11 November @ 11:18 AM EST

So how bad was the Juande Ramos and Damien Comolli regime at Spurs? Well it took almost £150m on new players in the 16 months to undo the damage down by Ramos and Comolli.

Spurs spent £119.3m in the year ending June 2009, with another £29.4m invested since on the likes of Peter Crouch, Sebastien Bassong and Niko Kranjcar.

Enforcer Palacios will look to disrupt Arsenal’s fluency

The Arsenal Column 30 October @ 09:57 AM EST

The Gunners will have to find their way through the midfield shield of Wilson Palacios and Tom Huddlestone in the North London derby.
_______________________________________________________________________________

He wasn't able to find away to stamp his quality over Arsenal's midfielders during a trial with the club two years ago but Wilson Palacios now has a chance to do just that for the Gunners' biggest rival.

I read Mihir Bose's article on Harry's comments relating to the players Arsenal

THBN - Tottenham Hotspur Blog News 30 October @ 06:36 AM EST
I read Mihir Bose's article on Harry's comments relating to the players Arsenal are bringing on.
Harry made a few interesting comments that I never knew were not in fruition at Spurs. For example, he said that Arsenal "have got full-time scouts all around the world and they have invested heavily". Click to continue reading...

Freedom of the press

The Boys From White Hart Lane 29 October @ 10:08 AM EST
As an ardent Tottenham fan and journalistic pretender, a piece on The Telegraph's website today wrangled with me for numerous reasons.
As part of the 'Daily Bung' segment, writer Mike Norrish (on evidence of this, a Spurs-hating, subjective fool) has spewed out the most ridiculous and contradictory piece on why Tottenham will probably lose the North London Derby on Saturday. Click to continue reading...

White Kop Lane

THBN - Tottenham Hotspur Blog News 29 October @ 06:34 AM EST
What did you make of the Kop-style stand? To be honest, I was fairly annoyed with it at first, but it's definitely begun to grow on me.
I'm no architect, so I can't really comment on the acoustics that the new ground will create, but it looks as though KSS (the projects architects) and Levy are pretty adamant that the noise circulating around the stadium will be ferocious. Click to continue reading...

The Naming Rights Arena

The Boys From White Hart Lane 27 October @ 01:06 PM EST
Some fantastic images of the new stadium put out in the last few days. Also announced was the inclusion of a single tier stand to rival the Kop at Anfield as Tottenham attempt to create one of 'the best atmospheric stadiums in Europe'.
The proposed moving dates have also been released to the public with Daniel Levy stating that Spurs will be playing in the their new, as yet unnamed, stadium by 2012. Click to continue reading...

A depleted Man Utd team faces CSKA

Soccerblog 21 October @ 07:48 AM EST

Minus Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs, Darren Fletcher, Ji Sung Park, and Patrice Evra. All key players. Which should bolster CSKA's chances.

But the one adage after all these years - you count out Man Utd at your own peril. And Juande Ramos will do well to heed this advice. By the way, Ramos has been busy with extracurricular activities, including writing a non-fiction piece aimed at business executives.

EPL Talk 04 October @ 08:01 AM EST

With the season starting slightly earlier this year due to the World Cup, most teams in the Premiership have played 8 league games already. Last season, the 8th round of matches was played two weeks later, on the weekend of October 18th/19th. By the end of it, Tottenham were staring up at every other team in the league with a lowly 2 points.

The Transfer Deadline: Day for the deluded or window of opportunity ?

Charlton Life 02 September @ 09:15 AM EST

There is something hugely entertaining about Transfer Deadline Day.

After nearly four months to assemble their squad, clubs scramble around like a panicking teenager on the day before a new term, desperately trying to source uniform, books and a geometry set at short notice, whilst starting the homework they have had six weeks to complete.

Tottenham Reportedly Close to Completing £16m Sandro Deal

Caught Offside 28 August @ 08:01 AM EST

Would Harry be taking a big risk by investing so much in such an untried player?

Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy is understood to be close to concluding a deal for Internacional midfielder Sandro.

Spurs had a bid of around £14million rejected but they haven't given up and Levy has been in Brazil for several days in a bid to personally seal the move before the transfer window closes on Tuesday.

Tottenham over the last few years has been a story of three little Piggies.

Footballing Twits

FOOTBALLSUP 12 August @ 08:40 AM EST

The Twitter bandwagon is in full flow - some would say slowing down, almost - and there is a steady flow of footballers and football related Twitterers appearing in the micro-blogging sphere. It really hit the back (and front) pages with Darren Bent's Twitter 'rant' at Daniel Levy a few weeks back - but did you know that Hull's new striker, signed on the back of Daryl Murphy and Bobby Zamora turning them down, was also there?

Football clubs might be tight-lipped about their transfer dealings (or just plain lying, in Benfica's case) but the players themselves aren't so keen to keep things secret.

Understatement of the year

Soccerblog 06 August @ 07:58 AM EST

"There is a lot of politics at Tottenham, but that's Tottenham as a club," added Bent.

With Daniel Levy, every day is one more day spent in politics, one day less on football. I have no idea why this man wants to be chairman of a club. He should contest elections for the Tories.

Anyway, Bent's Twitter rant apparently helped seal the most expensive signing in Black Cats history.

Darren Bent’s Rant Goes A-Twitter

EPL Talk 31 July @ 12:57 PM EST

When I first heard of Twitter, I thought it was a dirty verb, like: "Get Twittered!" or "Go Twitter yourself!" (And maybe there's still potential for that.) Turns out it's a social networking website. And it has undeniably become the Next Big Net Thing.

In addition to allowing friends to keep up with each other's day-to-day goings-on, all kinds of organizations from restaurants to sporting clubs to Ashton Kutcher are learning to use its free marketing potential to promote themselves.

Darren Bent is a twit

Soccerblog 31 July @ 08:53 AM EST

Getting bent out of shape. But Daniel Levy has never been a class act himself.

A note on Twitter. It was praised for its real time look into the Iran uprising against Mahmoud Ahmedinejad's tainted election. This is a great example of Twitter being used for all the wrong reasons.
