    During the close season many of us, including me, berated Harry for being the Mouth For All Seasons. Once the season started and we got past the first two fixtures we have had little to complain about.

    The business he did in the window was pretty much spot on, given the competition he faced for players. Parker, Adebayor and Friedel have made a huge difference to the squad. Compare that to Villa, Liverpool, Arsenal or even Chelsea all of whom you could argue, and I will, have not done the business they needed to do.

    The time is right to offer some praise to Harry for assembling the best Spurs squad for many, many years AND rotating it in a far more effective way than previous seasons.

    So hear it from me Harry: Get well soon mate you are doing a fantastic job. We need you around to enjoy the fruits of your labour. <ok>

    Like all things in life, doing some good things shouldn't mask the mistakes. Have we got to love or hate him?

    We don't have to do either but we can give credit where it is due.

    Do you specialise in one liners or do you explain your comments?

    I do believe it's all about opinions. As i said in an earlier post, i don't think you have to 'love or hate' him. However when he does things we're not happy with then we have the right as paying customers to express our opinions. Equally when he has achieved, we should give the deserved praise.

    I think you'll find that you're in danger of coming across as a 'crashing bore'.

    You see, this is a board for people to come on and debate topics about their club, express opinions and learn things. Its why i come on.

    If you don;t agree with me, at least appreciate that i am entitled to my point of view and accept it.

    You are obviously an intelligent person but i feel you use it to an extent that makes you sound immodest.

    I'm not even going to look back at what i may have said or not. I believe it was in the context of being able to discuss with posters from another board rather than telling them to stay on their own board.
