Pleased to say , I'm attending this one with my youngest son who has acquired two tickets for the game . Don't get to go with him much nowadays but sharing a beer and watching our beloved Spurs together in a father / son day is something I very much enjoy .
Added to that , my good friend who is a B' mouth ST holder has got me a ticket for our game with them next week albeit in the home end . This will be the 3rd season in row and so far so good .
Two games in a week ! What am I hoping for ? Two good performances and six points .
What do I expect ? Probably one very good performance and one , let's say , not too good if our present situation continues .
You just don't know what's coming from game to game .
That said , I ll bloody enjoy it , regardless .
COYFS !

My mate lost his Dad this week, and they used to go regularly ... He's not sure if he can go again with the same enjoyment... Those moments/memories are precious, so enjoy!
That said, please sing your heart out, 'cos the atmosphere at Sunday lunchtime is notoriously flat, so we need to generate SOMETHING!!
...and before anyone asks, no, my mate doesn't now have a 'spare' for the rest of the season, so don't PM me!!
(we did actually laugh about it that he'd be inundated with requests for his Dad's ST from now on!!)
Well if the "see-saw" rollercoaster run of games is to continue, then Man City was our high, last night was our 'blip' so that sets up Sunday perfectly for a resounding......
....0-0 !!
Heaven knows which Tottenham turns up but hope we get to see happy Ange and not glum Ange.
Quite a bit of engineering work going on this weekend.

This is going to be a really tough one, it's going to be much harder than the game against an old, tired City. We have a very poor record in London derbies, their team is full of ex-Woolwich players, they had a full week of rest and they will fancy their chances against our soft team.
Go with the same XI as against City and let's see if they can produce a repeat performance.

Really hoping Romero can comeback in so that we can freshen up the team! Our players look tried at the end of the Roma game and with Bournemouth midweek, I think we have to make some changes but we cannot afford to weaken the team. Udogie, Maddison and Bissouma all got a rest last night so atleast thats 3 fresh faces and hopefully Romero too if he's deemed fit! Then I wouldn't be against the idea of starting Spence over Porro just to freshen it up. I guess we won't risk romero if he's not 100% given the busy schedule so my team would be as below with 4 changes:
Forster
Spence Dragusin Davies Udogie
Bissouma Sarr Maddison
Kulusevski Solanke Son

Its a rotten fixture mate, especially with them coming off a bad defeat. They'll be looking to do exactly what Ipswich did to us. They'll be deadly on the transition with Jiminez, Smith Rowe and Traore
Their away record is better than their home one too.
We usually get a result against them, have ever since Barry Hayles left, in fairness.
This is a ghastly fixture after a European night.
5-2 Spurs.
5-2 Spurs.
It could be any result with us, which is why we have 19 points and not 26 or 27, but also why we don't have 13 points.
A little bit may depend on how much we took out of ourselves in yesterday's latest dose of inconsistency.

Defences on top then.
Im going 4-1 us
I really want to win a game 7.0
Would be laughing for the rest of the week.
