I think GG's 1989 championship winning team was good to watch. Rocastle on one wing, Brian Marwood on the other. Michael Thomas and Paul Davis were a relatively cultured midfield. Merson up front - some good footballers and a strong defence.



Then you had Perry Groves.....

Don't forget Anders Limpar and Ian Wright. Oh, but then there was John Jensen.


Plus, the longer he's out of the game, the less chance of him being offered a contract.


Football has moved on a lot since 2001 and at 65 he's the wrong age for a club looking for a long term appointment.

Not to mention the fact that he liked a bung. I really can't see the clamour to have him back in the game. Call yourself a Spurs fan.

I disagree with that man management style being obsolete - I think now more than ever you need to rule with an iron fist rather than expect players to motivate themselves at the idea of a 50p win bonus.

Winning in style The Tottenham way? Maybe at one time Jah but not for yonks. Having a soft underbelly is the style I most associate with my beloved Spurs. Most of the players we've had in recent years haven't been fit to wear the shirt. We're playing well at present but the results against Wolves and Stoke worried me, as well as losing at home to 10 man united when we were 1 up. That's been the Tottenham way for quite a while now.

We've been won the title three times in better style than most teams manage in a lifetime from 1998 to now, whilst Tottenham have won precisely no, none, zilch, zip, nada, zero, titles in the same period. A Spuds fan preaching style to the present Arsenal side is laughable.

Despite Arsenal's superior short passing game they can be quite predictable. They lack any real quality on the wings and everything is played in front of the opposing defence. A savvy defence would simply stay compact an invite Arsenal to try to use the flanks as even if they do get crosses in they lack the aerial ability to convert crosses into goals, despite Eduardo's rare headed goal on sunday.

Looks like Beckford might be off to Newcastle for ?3million though. Personally, if we get that much, I'd bite Mike Ashley's hand off. He's worth nowhere near that.


It would seem he's put in a transfer request. Scores a goal against the champs, and starts believing his own hype.

      Leaves on East Dulwich streets

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      It's not entitlement FFS. We're paying the council more than £2k a year in tax. It's not too much to expect them to clean the streets and drains of leaves and dog shit for all that money, as well empty one bin once a fortnight.  The streets round here are a disgrace. The council are paid to make them not so. If they can't do it they should say so and stop charging money for the non-service.

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      By Moovart · Posted

      The Post Office no longer runs the Lordship Lane PO either.  That slipped through under the radar!  Below is an extract from a letter from the PO to me in response to my query about long queues.  Shame the PO didn't say who the new owner actually is.  Does anyone know?   Whilst this branch was a 'Crown' office, this has now been franchised. Services at this location are now operated by an independent Postmaster. They're responsible for all aspects of the day-to-day running of the branch, and is the employer of the members of staff who work in the branch.
