Farewell Martin Jol



Our very stupid board undermined you and the players and have brought this season's wretched troubles on themselves. We deserve to be relegated and I am in such a steaming bad mood about things that I am considering supporting Ars*nal!!!

You have behaved with dignity, loyalty and grace throughout this whole farcical Ramos saga. You've been our best manager since the year dot and lead us to two successive 5th place finishes (and a win over Chelsea) - no mean feat for our team of perpetual underachievers! Will Ramos be a better manager - my arse! A free-riding manager with ambitions to use Spurs as a stepping stone to a Champions League club whereas you always were Spurs through and through.

You deserve better than Spurs. Thank you for what you have done at Spurs. Good Luck for the future!

" I LOVE MARTIN JOL, MARTIN JOL LOVES ME"

Spice Girls Reunion!

To my horror the dreaded Spice Girls reunion has begun! Their new single was played on the radio this morning, but I had the good grace to change the channel as soon as the opening chords struck up!

I just cannot stand the Spice Girls - the only one who could sing was Mel C and she wasn't that great!

It's all going wrong for me dear old Spurs!

There are many factors why our crap season is continuing:

1. The managerial debacle of going behind our manager's back to approach someone else for his job wasn't helpful!

2. While it's obvious to most people we needed to bring in an experienced defender, we didn't - we brought in a promising youth - Kaboul - for the future but the present is the problem - Dawson's only good when he gets confidence from playing with an experienced defender e.g. the perpetually injured Ledley King!

3. We don't have any midfield at all! Jenas needs to be shipped out in January along with others who cannot pass the ball or get a shot in on target or break up opposition play.

4. We should've gone for Shaun Wright-Phillips who is a better finisher than Aaron Lennon!

5. It pains me to say it but we should've sold Berbatov for £25 million as he's our only flair player and in a team like ours we don't need unhappy flair players sulking, skulking and giving bad attitude because they'd rather be at Man Utd! Time to cash in on him in January!

6. Jol is not solely to blame, but he is responsible for team and tactics and so he shoulders some of the blame. Maybe the back room staff supporting him aren't up to it. Certainly not Chris Houghton who seems to be a permanent fixture at the club. Would another manager instill confidence in the squad and teach them to defend as a team and grind out boring 1-0 victories to move us up the table? It's not "the Spurs way" but we need to find a way out of this hole until we can buy some EXPERIENCED defenders and a tough-tackling midfielder in January.

7. I don't think Spurs are in relegation trouble, but unless things get sorted out soon, we will end up in the lower regions of the table in May.

8. The team should be banned from reading the inevitable bad press who always love to portray Spurs as a team in crisis!

9. Rant over!!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON YOU SPURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot ...



Just wanted to say well done to the England Rugby Team for beating the French Rugby Team in Paris tonight and by the narrowest of margins - how must that have hurt the French? It's rare for England to do well in any sport but the rugby team are the defending world champions and who could forget Jonny Wilkinson's amazing demolition of the Australian Rugby team in the last World Cup final - in Australia in 2003? How good was it watching the Aussie prime minister (John Howard?) bad-temperedly throwing the winners medals round the England team's necks!!! Now ... bring on South Africa or preferably Argentina for the final next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
