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."

      Oh Rachel....

      Hardly a non-story @malumbu still one of the lead stories on the BBC.....you clearly don't understand when to serve humble pie! 😉  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgk40l8jm7o   Absolutely. It's a disaster. And for this government, who were happy to tell us they had 14 years to prepare to lead, it has been one self-inflicted disaster after another since they took over. To be honest the signs were there when they were in opposition but I think we all gave them the benefit of the doubt as they weren't the Tories and now they have the reigns the additional scrutiny that brings is tripping them up.

      Phone box in front of Oru...

      By NiteRyder · Posted

      I don't think I've ever seen it used other than for gluing advertising on it. It's definitely not a priority but these things typically get ignored and become part of the furniture (so to speak).  There is a beautiful old red box near Upland Rd. I miss old red boxes... 😞 Anyway I'll have a dig around and see if anything can be done.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By Sue · Posted

      £30-40 for M&S Christmas food for two seems very low! And only £60 for food and drink for 8-10 people?  We have had M&S food at Christmas in the past, and it came to a lot more than that. I suppose it depends exactly what you are buying. We left it late to book a Christmas Day meal out last year, so there weren't many options left.  The Cherry Tree menu looked very nice. That was our first mistake. We also overlooked the fact that it was a Young's pub, with all that implies about the food. That was our second mistake. We don't have shedloads of money. We  took the view that we deserved a nice meal  out after working bloody hard all year. So it was doubly disappointing to basically waste a lot of money which could have been very much better  spent elsewhere.

      The Dean's Sermon, Southwark Cathedral - "God, I thank you that I am not like other people"

      By IlonaM · Posted

      No sweetheart. It is a fantastic sermon which should be shared. It is a rights-based sermon which received a standing ovation - if you can be bothered to get to the end.
