    I remember Spurs losing 7 -2 once before .....

    ........... and I was there on the Turf for the last game of the season. Around April 1962 or 63 without googling.
    I can't remember much except that Greaves scored for Spurs.

    Seems we're on the same page, Sinkov.

    I don't expect us to play like Man City.
    I know we haven't got a state-sponsored muti-billionaire backer.

    Anybody still optimistic about this season?

    Dyche hoofball - the consequences

    I've said for a long time that Dyche's tactics (assuming there are some) are to hoof it long and hope for scraps.
