Quality reactionary written articles on Tottenham Hotspur. Would you like to write for The Fighting Cock?
At the time it seemed an inspired appointment. The FA dillied and dallied for the best part of three months, but when they announced on 1 May that Harry Redknapp was the new England manager a nation rejoiced.

This is my first year of Spurs love, and I’ll pause a moment as those amongst you shake heads and mumble about bandwagon fandom. Done? Good; it’s a fair point but allow me to counter. I’m an American and began this most recent Premier League season declaring that I was going to watch all 38 […]

Sympathetic even, an acknowledgment of the sheer cruelty and injustice of it all. Cheer for City and you might as well cheer the scarcity of oil that’s driving […]
You’re probably expecting this article to a be a lengthy breakdown about the amount of TV revenue, sponsorship, merchandise and prize money lost from being unceremoniously dumped out of our well earned Champions League place?
