Glenn Hoddle to return to management at Tottenham for Ledley King's testimonial... as defender contemplates joining Gianfranco Zola and Co in legend's tournament
Glenn Hoddle will be back at White Hart Lane as manager once again, but it may not be Ledley King's grand farewell in a Tottenham shirt.
The iconic defender had to retire in 2012 after chronic knee problems, and is to captain a guest XI managed by Hoddle at his testimonial in May.
What's more, King is also contemplating a 'competitive' comeback in a new Football30 legends tournament just a week later.

Jimmy Walker as a Spurs legend is a bit of a stretch (as are some of the others).......did he even make one appearance?
Also have to question whether Sean Davis was really part of the 'glory days'
I was quite surprised that he's no longer playing
They should get David Bentley along as well......
Rumour is that Bale could play.
The rumour stems from a guy being told this by Brad Friedel after signing his shirt.

Why was a guy signing Brad Friedel's shirt?
Maybe he was Brad's childhood hero.... Ever thought of that??
Are any of Brad's childhood heroes young enough to still be alive?? :baeshock:
Pharaoh or Moses?
Pffft, no. I've never thought of anything...ever!
think you mis-spelt his name, I thought it was Booby Mimms
I'm looking forward to it, and sitting in the lower West Stand for a change.
Yeah from when i was like 5, honestly couldn't tell you why.
After that it was Walker, because i was a goalkeeper and because i met him
and Sheringham till he left.
