I almost jokingly added that at the bottom, as that's what all my Man United supporting mates say about Kane. It's a team game though and team honours are no indication of individual quality. Plus, he's only just 21.


When it comes to individual honours however, 2 PFA Young Player of The Year Awards in his first two premier league seasons is much more indicative of quality.



But, i'll put bitter united fans to one side and carry on as it's his birthday. Your club's greatest ever has nice things to say about him.




Xavi


"I can understand why Tottenham fans think he's the next Paul Gascoigne"



Pele


"The players that stand out are Alli and Kane, they represent the new generation for England"



Frank Lampard


"We talk about Hazard being the best in the league, I don't think Alli is far off that"



Sir Alex Ferguson


"He is probably the best young midfielder I have seen in many years, probably going back as far as Gascoigne"



Lee Dixon


"If Mesut Ozil had half of what fiery Alli had got, he'd be ten times a better player"

Yeah, once they or Barca come calling, it might be a different story. I'd like to think that we've got a tight knit squad who want to see things through with Pochettino, but when they come knocking I guess it's difficult to say no. We'll see.

Bitter? Behave. I'm old enough to have seen Utd relegated, then perennial league also rans. I never expected to see us win the league once, let alone all what we subsequently did. If we never win anything again in my lifetime I'll die a very happy fan...

Wow, such a bitter response. It was a little joke. A raw nerve seems to have been touched. ;-)

Not happening. None of you jealous knobjockeys have been paying attention. Spurs are no longer a selling club. All our top young players have been signing new contracts. There is a team spirit at Tottenham that you can only dream about at your clubs. We've got great players and a fantastic manager. The best training facilities in the world and we'll soon have a stadium to match. We're on the up and we'll soon be winning trophies and top players will want to play for a club like ours.

Unbearable I expect. Imagine being a Spurs fan since the early 80's when most of your mates are Arsenal, United, Liverpool, Chelsea and City fans. I've only had West Ham fans to take it out on since 1981 ffs.


Edit: But not as unbearable as Jah it seems ;-)

The Cup Winners Cup was the first thing that seemed to trigger

the rest IIRC.


Just googled and it was 1991

I'd seen Utd win FA Cups pre-Fergie (Liverpool, Brighton, Everton) but never the league.

Utd's first trophy under Fergie was also the FA Cup in '90 v Palace. That led to the ECWC in '91 and then we won the League Cup in '92, before finally winning the league in '93. I didn't have to Google any of that ;-)...

I was at the Brighton reply, the Everton one and the Palace replay. The Everton one was fantastic due mostly to a great winning goal and memorable for the first player ever to be sent off in a Final I think. I also had the pleasure of going to the Coventry cup final with my Spurs supporting brother. Hehe.
Kelvin MacKenzie has always been a vile, arrogant prick and The Sun has always been a vile, disgusting rag that I quite frankly wouldn't wipe my arse on. But you're right, the story should have been spiked before it went to print. The editor is just as culpable as MacKenzie in letting his hate filled column be published.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
