    Just noticed this while searching for Walter Tull:


    It would be nice to see the club recognise him in some fashion.
    Not sure what would be appropriate, but he's a significant part of our history and an interesting figure.

    • Dele to appear in an upcoming ITV documentary celebrating the legacy of Walter Tull.
    I hope he comes over well in this, as his image isn't too great right now.
    Seems like he's at a key junction in his career and he needs to make some good choices.

    BBC London have an item on about Gary Mabbutt doing 1000+
    phone calls to Corona isolated/vulnerable Spurs fans over the
    past few months (he has too : type 1 diabetic + his recent cardiac illness) .

    A little on the nose hiding Gazzaniga behind Hojbjerg, don't you think?

    I've just looked at our fixtures and they're a little ridiculous, aren't they? I can't see them staying like that.
    We've got Burnley tonight, Antwerp on Thursday, then Brighton on Sunday. A little cramped, but just the usual stitch up, really.
    Ludogorets the following Thursday is also business as usual, but then we're down to play West Brom on the Saturday.
    That can't be right, can it?

    Still don’t really understand why we’re playing today instead of yesterday given the EL schedule.

    I’m probably being too optimistic but I think we can handle it, even if it’s not ideal.

    We’ll likely make around 6-7 changes against Antwerp and with 5 subs allowed it gives more scope to be smarter with rotation.

    First choice XI to play tonight, Sunday and Saturday (or Sunday if changed).

    Rotated XI for the two Thursday’s.

    Had a look at the first melee of UEFA fixtures for the PL clubs.

    Apart from the sunday irritation for EL participants there does not appear
    to be undue unfairness (fixture gaps between league and UEFA games)
    for any club in particular.

    They're simultaneously trying to build us up to knock us down while also ****ting on us! <laugh>
    Seems odd that Neville's never met Daniel Levy. Thought they'd have crossed paths at some point.

    6 game gobshitery. <doh>

    Dec 1 would be the first time this season anyone vaguely
    intelligent would even think of asking the question of Spurs
    (and Jan 1 is when the stattos would first ask) .

    "I don't think Spurs can win the league as they haven't won it before" - Gary Neville

    Yes we have, Gary. Yes we have.

    <laugh> I really hope most Spurs fans aren't saying/thinking this.

    One day people will realise that it's not a coincidence that the Spurs fan who called talkBALLS last night sounds uncannily like the West Scam fan who called them on Sunday, who in turn sounds a lot like the Chelsea fan who called them on Saturday
