Top scorer Billy The Yid with 16 points continuing his rapid rise from the second division to just 2 points behind leader Spurlock. Consider our defending champion littleDinosaurLuke is 11th in division 2 but still only 29 points behind Spurlock. It's a very close league. Only one player did not predict, great effort guys keep those predictions coming.

For those of you who thought a Guy Mitchell song last weekend was going back a bit, here’s an even further delve into the pockets of history: a couple of verses of a song from a 1909 musical show (“Ship Ahoy!”): ALL THE NICE GIRLS LOVE A SAILOR, written by A J Mill & B Scott…… Feel free to join in on the chorus! When the Brighton team (like Real Madrid) come striding on our pitch The Tott’n’am fans with joy, Will sing out, Points Ahoy! With our minds so full of optimism, we are not afraid: We know we have a strong defence for when the game is played. All the Spurs fans love Vertonghen! All the Spurs fans love our Jan! For there's something about Vertonghen That reminds us he’s our man! Brighton’s queasy, Goals come easy! First through Eriksen’s neat ploy; Then Vertonghen next and Kane, Then our Son will score again, Points ahoy! Points ahoy! We shall beat the seagulls freely, and we’ll notch up four more goals, (But Hughton it’s still true: We’ve got respect for you!) And with Alderweireld and Wanyama on the injured list, You’ve stepped up bravely, Jan V, so they’re much less sorely missed! [All together now………!] All the Spurs fans etc Prediction: Spurs 4 Brighton 0 Scorers: Eriksen, Kane, Son, Vertonghen Cheers, Spurf!
After the elation of Saturday (oh goddamn we were electric!) the desolation of a midweek fixture Spurs 1-3 Brighton Alli
