I'm all for my listed medieval house to get some renovation from these gentlemen, who are even bringing their own equipment. Thanks for contacting them, patches.

Arteta having a harsh word at Dowman after his late sending off. Arteta said it was due to something they had talked about before the game. I'm reading into that, that it was that they would take heavy tackles but to watch their discipline. Dowman had been sent off in another game, I think England u-21s.

Harry Kane

I will. It's not often you get an idill budget.

I always had faith that Burnham would get us out of a pickle.

Yeah. He was no Maitland-Niles 🙂

Fraser did make a good impact at the start of his loan. He was a low cost squad player, so I can see why they brought him back. Holgate had been told in no uncertain terms to play RussBall from the moment he arrived. Without a 5 yard passing option, his mind crumbled and he got caught out more than once. Had he hoofed it, Martin would have probably dropped him, just when he was trying to make a good impression. 🙂

Talk about Russell Martin instead? What about THB in Russell Martin systems? 🙂

Is the pot hole arrow not just indicating they're deep enough for people to fall down?

We taught him all he knows. Or rather, our defence gave him all the confidence he would ever need. 🙂

While Bree is deservedly the first player to get the award while playing for Saints, he's not the first Saints player to have won it, with Keegan getting it twice in the '70s (78 and 79). Also, we got the reflected glory of winner George Weah's definite cousin Ali Dia playing for us. I wonder if they'd already decided on Bree before yet another cracking goal at the weekend.

They'll have to fjordge on somehow. 🙂

No one has bigger balls than the DEF. 🙂

I read the title as "v Holmes" and thought you were all out to get me. Which is nonsense, right? Right? Guys? Uh oh...

There will be personal bubbles available to keep everyone extra safe.

I don't think fling to mars on the drugs she's taking, is the same thing.

After the Spurs win Matteus Fernandes was asked "Is this performance the sign of your arrival at the club." To which Matteus responded "No, I arrived on the first day." 🙂 Cheeky question that Matteus was having none of.

It might have been yourself that pointed out he was able to get to jump to higher clubs, despite short tenures, all the same issues, and none of those clubs storming their leagues. A top club was the next obvious move from half a season of us doing okay in the PL and Man Utd needing a manager. Potter was still being hailed as a philosophy manager, adding another string to Martin's PowerPoint presentation.

Sadly, Spurs have picked up wins. Could have been 3 of the Big 6 getting relegated.

I'd argue that the rot set in during the Ferguson era. I think it was his sheer will power and determination to get the best out of his players that often made a difference. Sure, the team had windows where several players arrived every now and again. And a lot of windows had at least one big name arrived. But along with that were the veteran, stop gap strikers there was getting Scholes to come out of retirement. Then there were punts in the market, that a powerhouse not burdened by all that debt and outgoing interest payments would not have had to make. I recall one arrival of several players as something of an overdue refresh.

Wilcox, who said he considers himself a manager, and with the pedigree of being a Man City Under-18s coach, gets another chance to show it, after he pushes another actual manager under the nearest bus.
