Since Bale's gone we are no longer a selling club.


That's because you had no one worth buying :)

Joking aside, you're building a new stadium, and Arsenal were forced to sell players whilst they paid for the Emirates. But with the TV money you indeed might not have to sell, we saw this with Everton over Stones, time will tell...

Saw the pre match stuff on the TV but then listened to part of the match on BBC radio. They commentator was going spare over of all the stuff being throw at the French goalie. Was there any mention of that on the TV?

Regardless of the potential for some idiots to disrespect it, the French national team just played here and a great deal of respect was shown. Do the masses really want to express their empathy with what happened in France by singing their anthem? I doubt it. It's in French. A minutes silence maybe.

Very much looking forward to MOTD tonight. Spurs quietly going about their business. Still unbeaten since the opening day. Chelsea next. Always a tricky one but our confidence is growing and I don't see why we can't beat them too. Hopefully end Maureen's reign at the helm.

Obviously, don't want to get carried away as being a lifelong Spurs fan I know it can always go tits up at any point and it usually does but beginning to feel quietly confident that we could be contenders this season.


Anyway, Spammers... how'd you like them apples?

I wouldn't go that far...yet. Certainly don't want to get carried away. If Harry gets injured that's a massive blow for us. But we're a young team who are growing together and everyone seems to be singing from the same hymn sheet and hopefully we'll stick together and who knows within the next few years if we continue to grow and make progress under Pochettino, who deserves a lot of credit for the way we're going about out business in bringing in our style of play and bringing the youngsters through I don't see why not.

Getting into the top four and finishing above Arsenal (as an added bonus) would be massive for us this season. I'd be very happy winning one of the cups that we're still in contention for.

With Chelsea having such a poor season so far I don't see why us or Liverpool can't nick their top four spot.

      Lost Cat Henslowe & Underhill Road

      By jfern · Posted

      Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know

      That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring

      Fireworks

      By exdulwicher · Posted

      The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.

      Fireworks

      By SophieA · Posted

      Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
