This time it did hurt Jah. Arguably that was our toughest remaining away fixture for the season, and a win would have been massive.

I think Fergie should have directed his ire at the Ref not the Linesman, as he had a perfectly clear view of Caulker bringing down Rooney...if he thought it wasn't a pen why not book Rooney for diving? Anyways, a draw was a fair result and I would've taken that at the start...

With nowt left to play for you mean? Like 1992?

You know you've done all right when Fergie starts moaning about referees. I thought we shaded it but at the end I was happy with the point. To take four points from Man Utd during the season is good form.

Spurs next few league games are against Norwich, West Brom, Newcastle & West Ham, all potentially winnable and should keep us in the hunt for that top four spot. I still think we need another striker and a creative midfielder for us to bomb on though.

Week 19 results, some good scores this week...


DR - 6 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 12 pts

SC - 6 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 12 pts


?? - 3 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 9 pts


JL - 5 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 8 pts


MM - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts

LG - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts


AM - 3 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 6 pts

Mx - 3 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 6 pts

RD - 3 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 6 pts


RC - Played a Maxxi = 5 pts


OT - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts


EP - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts

PD - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts

Ten years ago Tottenham Hotspur decided to release 14-year-old Gary Hooper as a schoolboy and now it looks like we could be back in the race for his signature.


Hooper?s contract negotiations are at deadlock with Celtic and according to reports today Spurs could be set to offer ?10million for the 24-year-old. The Metro claim that Andre Villas-Boas has already had positive reports from scouts which he sent north of the border to cast an eye over the former Scunthorpe player.


Norwich have already had a ?5million bid snubbed by Celtic, with Liverpool and QPR also said to be monitoring the situation. The striker has scored 55 goals in 81 games for the Scottish side but we all know that the Premier League is a completely different animal. Would Hooper be able to become the prolific forward which we crave?


Hooper reportedly told the Scottish Sun newspaper: ?I was released by Spurs when I was 14, I had been with them for seven years. I went on a 20-minute trial ? just 20 minutes of one game and they said no.


?How they can judge you on 20 minutes I?ll never know.


?The rejection from Tottenham has motivated me a lot. I want to prove to them I can play at the highest level.


?The disappointment of being released by Spurs has never left me ? and ever since I?ve been trying my hardest to show what I can do. Spurs didn?t believe in me and I think I?ve proved them wrong by joining Celtic.?

The Cup is back this weekend. Like the previous round I've picked 10 ties where there's the potential of a good old fashioned cup upset. Therefore I've included the Friday night game featuring Villa, who after last night's performance won't be looking forward to a 'warm' welcome at the New Den, so remember to get your predictions in before then...

At least Hazard will make the back pages...to be honest having seen it a couple of times I think he was trying to get the ball from under of a ball boy acting a total tool and time wasting then doing a Drogba. Know the headlines will slaughter him but I actually have a bit of sympathy with Hazard on this, even though he was a bit stupid.

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
