Tottenham getting pelters for spending 20 yrs generating this huge revenue stream yet nobody going in on City and Chelsea who just bowled up with dickie money and rode roughshod over the Premier League is interesting.
Some days it's as if there's nothing new under the sun. Harry Kane keeps knocking them in, Novak Djokovic keeps knocking them out and Wales' rugby players keep squabbling over match fees for the Nations' Cup. A shocking state of affairs.
Sours sign about their 25th star in the last three weeks. it’s a bit bewildering - on the other hand it exposed ms Daniel Levy as the cheapskate fool he always was

Loads of “we”in the punditry today. Must admit odd one slipped out, & angry when it did, but it was the one word that the legendary #BillMcLaren never used. Never ever. Even when a member of his family was scoring for Scotland. Never. Richie Benaud in same camp. Another legend.
