Just done a bit of digging and the West Ham squad were over there for their Christmas do. Carroll was apparently a drunken mess, but I've not seen anything that confirms he did something stupid, yet.
A lot of comment on the Arsenal board about how they are doing compared to last year. Thought I would check on us. Match For Against Points Last Year LY Pts Newcastle v Tottenham 1 2 0 Drew 1 Tottenham V Norwich 1 1 1 Lost 0 Tottenham V West Brom 1 1 1 Won 3 Reading V Tottenham 3 1 3 Won 3 Tottenham V QPR 2 1 3 Won 3 Man Utd V Tottenham 3 2 3 Lost 0 Tottenham V Aston Villa 2 0 3 Won 3 Tottenham V Chelsea 2 4 0 Drew 1 Southampton V Tottenham 2 1 3 Won 3 Tottenham V Wigan 0 1 0 Won 3 Man City V Tottenham 1 2 0 Lost 0 Arsenal V Tottenham 2 5 0 Lost 0 Tottenham V West Ham 3 1 3 Won 3 Tottenham V Liverpool 2 1 3 Won 3 Fulham V Tottenham 3 0 3 Won 3 26 29 We are between 1 and 3 points worse off against the same opposition (the range is because of results against newly promoted teams. In my table I have assumed we won last years games but we did draw at home to Wolves). Compared to Arsenal who are, I believe, 7 points worse off this year (annoyingly can't find the post to confirm this) and having their worst start since 1994/5 season. I see that as reasons to hope we can move away from them over the holiday period?
Someone mentioned Swansea using home grown players. I was told some time ago that Arsenal scouts have a permanent caravan parked at the Broadwater Farm looking for local Tottenham talent.I hope that's wrong!As I moved from Tottenham's Lordship Lane a long time ago I guess a lot has changed!!!!!?
Newcastle are 2-0 up,Ba (double my salary or I'm off) scored both. Hmmmmm! Just thinking it might be worth a bid.
When pigs have flown and Goldfish have developed a cure for cancer Jose is and will always be the only Special One
TMT I'm with Drogs. Beating United doesn't mean you'll have a successful season. West Ham did the double over Arsenal AND United and only escaped relegation by the skin of their teeth. West Ham did the double over Chelsea in 02/03 and were relegated, Charlton did as well and finished 14th. Chelsea win and lose nothing by beating Sunderland but with the CWC round the corner a win is important.
I thought that was what his wife/girlfriend calls him? He certainly goes with rich clubs who can afford the most expensive players.Hence his trophy case.Has he ever managed a hard up club?

He looks like the start of a Daz advert "even gets out everyday Geordie stains such as other peoples blood, dribble from Jaeger bombs and chicken parmo grease". "warning: cannot remove gormless look from face"
They will all end up looking like their manager in a few years time. Who incidentally looks more like a Pub Landlord than the manager of a group highly trained sportsman. please log in to view this image
