i have to admit i'm a bit partial to spurs, the british soccer club.
a few of their former players a amongst my favourites. Gary Lineker, Paul Gascoine and chris waddle. not to mention the likes of Osvaldo ardiles jurgen klinnsmann etc...
they've got a fantastic history - especially in the cup competitions. FA Cup winners 8 times.
in the league its a different story - last time they won the top league was during the 60/61 season.
and this season its no better. a recent columist on a spurs board commented how commiting suicide was less painful than watching them play!
It could not get worse for them as they lost to Hull City away on the 5th October. They are now seven games without a win with only two points.
this was the season. this was it. top four would become top 5. yeah they lost a few of their players to other clubs but they spent too. and now of course they had the great one there. not jose but juande ramos.
after the sacking of Jol, spurs need to give this guy some time - no doubt they'll get out of the relegation zone but things need to get going the right way soon. in this financially driven world of football where the money of the european football is king a lack of it means pressure of enormous means.
still it wouldnt surprise me come next weekend they're looking for another manager. the boo's have started and i'm sure the chairman is getting itchy at the thought that bank balance lookin slim line.
fans are quick to forget the cup run of last season where the messiah had been labelled.
