Episode 16. Believe. We’ve got Movember, poor old Harry Redknapp; we have a nurse explain his heart procedure (steady on, it’s a male nurse), Fulham match review…we talk substitutions, tactics, second half pressure, player fitness including peaking, Friedel owns Gosling and do we have confidence in Bordan?

Episode 16. Believe.

We’ve got Movember, poor old Harry Redknapp; we have a nurse explain his heart procedure (steady on, it’s a male nurse), Fulham match review…we talk substitutions, tactics, second half pressure, player fitness including peaking, Friedel owns Gosling and do we have confidence in Bordan? Martin Jol gets a mention (but no song) and a comparison with Harry.

Windy drops the knowledge. Porn star re-tweet mission…it gets messy. Forum affairs and we ask do we care about England? Have we fallen out of love with international football? Club before country? We also discuss Spurs and English yoof signings and modern football transfer policy. We defend Pienaar. Then diss our own. Are Spurs fans impatient impossible to please knee-jerkers? Controversial.

We defend the NDP, we’ve got a Botswana update and Peter North. We also pay tribute to our war time Spurs players with Remembrance Sunday in mind.

    Thank you for telling like it is about fans turning on players (the team) so quickly, every time I watch a Spurs game (or England) I think “I love football, I hate football fans”. In fact, Football Fans are my nomination for Prick of the Week. Mass generalisation but you see it at every game. Simple message in response to them…Love…The…Shirt.

    Keep up the good work, listening to the podcast has made a great start to the season better…and Thelonius, have you ever done voice coaching? I swear Don Cheadle is copying your voice in the Ocean’s films..£50 to Movember if on the next poscast you say

    “Oh leave it out! You tossers! You had one job to do!”

    Cheers men. Really good to hear a fun, free-wheeling, swearing, edgy but still right-on rant about our club. But here’s a thing: what percent turned on Palacios and Gomes? I mean do you represent a minority or the majority? The stadium moved to those sentiments, right? So you being against it means what? That many where swayed along with the vocal wrong-headed minority or the majority have no patience or knowledge?
