Ricky and Flav’s little day out… featuring Clive Allen
Sunday 24th November 2011. For some reason, other than that we’d agreed to attend (we obviously could’ve stayed in bed), we traipsed across London to watch a game between some Sunday League Club called Ivory FC and the Nivea England Legend XI. You might ask ‘why?’. ‘To interview Clive Allen’ we’d answer. For a write up of the event click here. Otherwise click on the play button below to hear the lot.

Tottenham ‘Money Ball’ Hotspur
By Sibs (SibsTHFC) Ok, stick with me on this one, as I know the title of the post implies I’m about to chat away about baseball and maths for a while. For those that aren’t familiar Money Ball is the latest Brad Pitt film that will no doubt win an Oscar or two. It is based on the story of Billy Beane, the General Manager of the Oakland Athletic baseball team. No, I haven’t seen the film, read the book, or claim to have any knowledge of baseball, but I do know the basic premise of the film/story. Beane set... Read more »

BMC FC Christmas Appeal
[progress id=1063] Target: £200 [button size=”large” color=”green[/linequote]Thank you![/button] To make a donation send it sibsthfc@gmail.com via paypal or click on the button above. As you all know, the Mighty Meat Men of the Botswana Meat Commission are our adopted second team, we love them almost as much as we do Spurs, almost. Since we have adopted them they are not only unbeaten, but they have won every single game and have climbed to 2nd in the Botswana Premier League table. Some say this is down to their superb manager, Mr. Daniel Chico Dance Nare, but I would like to think... Read more »

Lunchtime Legends – End of season round up
By The Oxford Chap (The Oxford Chap) The Fighting Cock enjoyed this so much that we thought we’d share it with you. We warn in advance that it only has a fleeting reference to Tottenham, but you might yet get something from it. Basically, we take you for more than philistines. For more of The Oxford Chap’s musings click here What had hoped to be a mildly amusing anecdote and an excuse to “run around a bit”, soon turned out to be the inevitable shit sandwich it was always destined to be. And unfortunately, the romantic notions of somehow being... Read more »

Want my Berba back, Berba back, Berba back, Yids!
By Mike Stevenson (mikeinparma) I want to discuss that’s something that has bugged me over the last three years: Dimitar Berbatov. To discuss my feelings for Berba, I have to go back to the beginning. In my first year as a Spurs supporter at the ripe old age of 25 and coming from the US, I’d come a long way in understanding the game, how it was meant to be played, what constituted shit football, etc etc. Who were the players that could dazzle us, who were the ones to make us perpetually face palm (I’m looking at you, Lee...

Redknapp Out!
Via drwinston001 from The Fighting Cock forum. There’s a massive elephant in the room and it’s about time we discussed it. There was a time in the not so distant past when I could rely on Spurs failing gallantly, perhaps scoring 3 spectacular goals for us to celebrate but letting in a 4th in the 89th minute. Yeah we’d lost the game but we’d given it our all and entertained the crowd. We were the Newcastle under Kevin Keegan without the title challenge or Scottish accents. We always had at least 3 or 4 players in the team we could... Read more »
