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.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Angelina · Posted

      If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
