After Spurs enormously impressive win last night, a game that in the past we could so easily have lost. Is there beginning to be a grudging respect for Spurs. This article addresses that and a few other things to.


Hope & Expectation: The difference between Liverpool & disrespected Tottenham.

That might be because last year everyone except Spurs fans wanted Leicester to win the title. Now it's the much hated Chelsea who we're all hoping slip up.

Chelsea have been excellent and fully deserve the title- we'll never catch them (we'd have to win all remaining games and Chelsea lose 3- not going to happen). But, if all teams win games in hand we'll still be 7 points ahead of third. Surely even Spurs can't throw away second place; which, if you'd offered it at the start of the season knowing that Conte, Guardiola, Mourinho (plus a couple of hundred of millions pounds worth of new players) were incoming and Klopp was in his second season, i'd have bitten your hand off.

Absolutely.


I hope and pray we decide to stay at the Lane next season, which is a possibility, as we need to kick on again if we're serious about winning the league. The other teams will.

Well the title may be going South but it's official, the best places to watch football are the Midlands and North.


Don't take my word for it

It's his 21st birthday today and the stats just keep stacking up.


"Dele Alli is 21 on Tuesday and is better than Cristiano Ronaldo was when it comes to making and scoring goals.

The Tottenham and England midfielder has been involved in 40 goals so far in his fledgling career. Compare that to Ronaldo, who had been involved in 25 by the time he was 21, scoring 14 and assisting in 11."



"Dele Alli (40) has been involved in as many Premier League goals before turning 21 as Frank Lampard (15), Steven Gerrard (13) and David Beckham (12) combined."



"He has now also scored more league goals (16) this season than any other under-21 player in Europe's top five leagues."

      Boycotting US products

      By Sue · Posted

      Thanks Ilona, it was that article which led me to do the Google search in the first place! And also to sign up to get updates from the Stop Trump thing, though I have mixed feelings about that (diplomacy etc. Starmer in a difficult position etc.) I know, it's never ending. And when I googled (Google!!!) to find out whether our website was American, I found out it was incorporated in Israel with its Headquarters in Tel Aviv 😭

      Boycotting US products

      Sadly I am not in the market for buying a new car, electric or otherwise, or else I would happily join the Tesla boycott, which seems to be having the desired effect (sales have fallen significantly, and Trump is calling the boycotters Radical Left Lunatics 🤣) I googled to try to find out if I was likely to buy anything American, in order to replace it with something not American, and the only thing I can find so far is Fairy Liquid (of which I already have a lifetime's supply, as I have a dishwasher,  so I rarely actually use the FL). I really don't feel I can google absolutely everything I buy,  but does anyone know of a website which has a comprehensive list of American imports to the UK, including but not solely food and household stuff? Also,  Amazon and eBay are both American, which is annoying as I buy quite a lot from both as it's convenient, so I will have to rethink that, I suppose.
