After Spurs enormously impressive win last night, a game that in the past we could so easily have lost. Is there beginning to be a grudging respect for Spurs. This article addresses that and a few other things to.


Hope & Expectation: The difference between Liverpool & disrespected Tottenham.

That might be because last year everyone except Spurs fans wanted Leicester to win the title. Now it's the much hated Chelsea who we're all hoping slip up.

Chelsea have been excellent and fully deserve the title- we'll never catch them (we'd have to win all remaining games and Chelsea lose 3- not going to happen). But, if all teams win games in hand we'll still be 7 points ahead of third. Surely even Spurs can't throw away second place; which, if you'd offered it at the start of the season knowing that Conte, Guardiola, Mourinho (plus a couple of hundred of millions pounds worth of new players) were incoming and Klopp was in his second season, i'd have bitten your hand off.

Absolutely.


I hope and pray we decide to stay at the Lane next season, which is a possibility, as we need to kick on again if we're serious about winning the league. The other teams will.

Well the title may be going South but it's official, the best places to watch football are the Midlands and North.


Don't take my word for it

It's his 21st birthday today and the stats just keep stacking up.


"Dele Alli is 21 on Tuesday and is better than Cristiano Ronaldo was when it comes to making and scoring goals.

The Tottenham and England midfielder has been involved in 40 goals so far in his fledgling career. Compare that to Ronaldo, who had been involved in 25 by the time he was 21, scoring 14 and assisting in 11."



"Dele Alli (40) has been involved in as many Premier League goals before turning 21 as Frank Lampard (15), Steven Gerrard (13) and David Beckham (12) combined."



"He has now also scored more league goals (16) this season than any other under-21 player in Europe's top five leagues."

      The Mansion Tax

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!

      I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Cancerian · Posted

      Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
