If we sign Adama our window that's a 8/10 will become a 0/10.

I think Sugar was the right man at the right time for us, possibly by more luck than judgement. Think about it, Maxwell was lurking!

Anyway, perhaps not a golden age but an FA Cup delivered, and one that i will always remember. For good or bad that was some side Venables put together.

Amen; those lads are up there with my Totten-heroes! :gazza:
 
Probably around 350m Euros in total. Problem is they look like they are going to spend most of it on players. Must be banking on the super lge re appearing and tv revenues to go through the roof.
Giving a 3 yr contract to a 34yr old , Lewandowski, seems bonkers.
Meanwhile Frankie De Jong says, where’s my 17 mill Euros you owe me.
I’d forgotten about the super league.

They must be desperate for it.
 
Nothing would make me happier right now than seeing that club fold. I would drink on the salty tears of their cunt fanbase (who continue to insist their finances are just dandy) until giddy.

:contepoint:
Without wishing to sound condescending — okay, maybe wishing to sound a little condescending — 99% of Barca ‘fans’ are glory-hunting Twitter trolls, susceptible to successful branding, who don’t even realize that Catalans speak a separate language from the rest of Spain. If Barca folded tomorrow, half would jump to Madrid without missing a beat while the other half would be posting PSG, City or Chelsea almost as quickly.
 
I did see a documentary (can't recall the name) years ago, could have been on BBC's Panorama regarding the court case between Sugar and Venables.

Very interesting to see two barrow boys going toe to toe. I truly believe that this still goes on today at some clubs and have some cracking stories about Barry Fry and Brian Talbot that I can't print.

Brings back memories, and Spurs at that time needed saving and i think we got lucky with Sugar for all the right reasons ta THAT time.
The 80’s…The Chante Clair(?) and Stan Flashman🤣🤣
 
Sean Walsh/Graeme Bailey:
However, 90min understands the north London side would like to bring in one more option at right wing-back, with Spence's arrival primarily a way of helping Spurs' homegrown quota ahead of their return to the Champions League.

Managing director of football Fabio Paratici has reignited talks with Roma over Nicolo Zaniolo in recent days, with Conte and Giallorossi boss Jose Mourinho both seeing a future for the Italy star at wing-back.


90min

So, a 4th RWB, who has played CAM, is left-footed, and both Conte and Mou agree should be playing wing-back?!?
 
You'd better be careful. There's a deadly strain of measles on the rise. And I'm not joking....

If you nourish the body, such illness need not be a thing to fear?

When we discussed children, my only prerequisite was that they would never be vaccinated…

When you make such a choice, you need to be firm in conviction, my children are kept out of the pH ranges of major illness. Major childhood disease hasn’t been lessened with the heightening of vaccination programmes, exactly the opposite (and the rate of increase, more or less exactly matches the increase in Vaccines children take), now it’s Non-Polio Accute Flaccid Paralysis and the like, in exactly the same demographics (malnourished).

Care is an abstract concept.

Well it had 2 true world class players. Gascoigne got us through every round. When he blew up in the final the rest had to stand up and be counted.
We’ve had plenty better teams who won nothing.
Regarding Lineker, people may not be aware that we bought him with 1m which Scholar lent to the club at a slightly higher interest rate than what he borrowed it for.
He borrowed it from none other than Robert Maxwell.
