round up #27
i promise that transfer rumors will not dominate the following paragraphs. however, please proceed with caution, as i’m not making a promise that there will be no transfer rumors. is kenny dalglish really cooler than the fonz? – thespoiler.co.uk seriously, someone answer this question for me. i’m clearly too young to remember dalglish’s exploits while […]
all the money in the world, but what to spend it on
despite the claims of many, and even myself from time to time, spurs are not yet a “big club.” as difficult of a statement as that is to admit, it’s unfortunately not that hard of a statement to back up. sure, they’re sitting in 4th in the table at the halfway line, a position many thought […]
five things i hate about mark clattenburg
Before I get into this, I just want to say that I know Tottenham were probably going to lose the game against Manchester United. Regardless of who you are, if you’re down a goal, away at Old Trafford, and in the 83rd minute, you’re probably not going to win. The incident I’m about to talk […]

round up #15
for as much as i hate the highly packed winter schedule that the premier league throws at the clubs (it’s like 15° outside and the league feels it’s necessary to make each club play three times in two weeks. why put so much stress on the players?), i go a little stir crazy in between game […]
we need this to be true
normally, i wouldn’t just write a post based on a single-sourced rumor on the internet. i like to do my homework a little bit: research other sites to see if anyone else is reporting the same thing, read a good deal on the background of the involved parties, try to gain some sort rationale for […]
from “big 4” to “big 7″… let’s not get ahead of ourselves
much has been said over the last three or four years about the monopoly held by the so called “big four” in england. fans and pundits alike have moaned and complained that the gulf in class between the manchester united, chelsea, liverpool and arsenal is becoming too difficult to close because of the financial benefits […]
