Oh god it was a terrible. I'm smarting this morning, really smarting. I can't even bring myself to read the match reports in the papers yet. What a terrible start to the season for Tottenham Hotspur. But here come the excuses. 3 left backs out, three centre-halves, a couple of wingers, or am I just whinging? Oh well, once we do finally get everyone fit again I'm sure we'll be the force that people have been saying we should be this season. In the meantime Grrrr!(6)

I watched the game and felt quite sorry for Tony Soprano - the fans were giving him a kicking on Five Live afterwards saying he's a nice guy but a poor tactician. He certainly looked isolated on the touchline.


Injuries play their part but there was enough talent out there to do something other than whatver tactics were in play.

I listened to those idiots on Five Live bleating about Martin Jol on the way back from the game in the luxury of my mate's Lexus. Most of those people on phone-ins know f**k all about football. This is a man who has got us a top five finish in the last two seasons and a couple of good cup runs in which I think we were a little lacking in experience when it came to the business end of matters. I happen to think he is a fine coach and if given the right time and resources will eventually bring the success that the long suffering Spurs fans deserve.

I'm working late tonight, but if I do pop into the CPT for a snifter or two it won't be until about 9pm, so you never know I might catch you later.

Is it satisfying playing in the Championship? ;-) Soory Simon, but Warnock was on the radio the other day still slagging off Benitez, and I just think it's rubbish. If he had a team in the final of a cup, and his last league match didn't mean anything to him, he'd do what was best for his team, and think about the cup. That's all Liverpool did, and it's the same as any manager would do. Teams get relegated because they don't get enough points over 38 games, you can't blame it on one particular person.


That penalty was bollocks! But, these things happen, Torres' goal was great, so that's a positive. Plus the mancs lost which is always a good thing.

    • In  parts of Europe you just get charged tax at the end of your stay somewhere. Usually a couple of quid added to your bill. Most tourists are pretty happy to stump up the cost, as it's an expected expense.  I  think it's a good way to make money and remove the burden from locals.  It's for foreigners, Sue - I'm sure Londoners and brits will still be able to freely cross the borough lines without having to go through checkpoint charlie 🙂 
    • It doesn't work like that. There won't be differential pricing for tourists and residents at any attractions, checkpoints or a requirement to carry one's papers with one at all times. A levy is put on hotels, maybe on Air B&Bs, on a bed per night basis. That cash goes to Southwark. It's pretty easy to administer.
    • Don't see an issue at all. Sounds like the protest is being made by friends and families of the two off licences, Morleys, pret and maxim chicken who are within 100 m of the school. Much ado about nothing. Besides if it doesn't proceed, the kids will walk a but further!!
    • Whilst I agree to some extent,  are they going to have some kind of checkpoint?  I can't see how this could work in practice. Surely Southwark residents go to these places quite frequently as well, particularly Tate Modern?  Will we have to take proof of residency every time we go out? What happens when family are with us who don't live in Southwark? Will other London boroughs start doing the same thing? Will Southwark residents be charged a tourist tax to visit "tourist attractions" in other areas, eg the V&A and the British Museum?
