There’s never a nadir to Southgate’s England
there's always a new depth. Well, England's second group game in Euro 2024, against Denmark was pretty much wash, rinse, repeat performance of going up and giving up. read the rest of this rubbish

Toxic ramblings about football, Tottenham Hotspur and England.
Thank you Turkey and Georgia for providing an antidote to
the sterile dull football on show. Georgia’s first excursion into finals football saw them unluckily beaten 3-1 by Turkey in by far the best and most entertaining match of Euro 2024 so far and probably a time to come. OK I have to admit, sitting down to watch Turkey versus Georgia looked like a chore, […] read the rest of this rubbish
Southgate can’t stop himself going full
Southgate. England did their usual crap opening game for a tournament as they went all Southgate in beating Serbia with an early goal and then spending the rest of the game hanging on for dear life. read the rest of this rubbish
Even when Southgate gets something right… he gets

There was an inevitable predictability to the Champions League final

Oh the joys of Thursday nights for Spurs
next season. Ange kept up his recent record of beating the newly promoted, newly relegated, as Spurs won their final game of the season against Sheffield United, the bottom team in the league, with a flattering scoreline after another struggle. read the rest of this rubbish
Has Ange now lost the fans
as well as those games? Spurs latest loss wasn't greeted with so much anger as all the others, as a victory here would have more than likely handed the title to the Woolwich Wanderers, but Ange doesn't understand, apparently he's here to win. read the rest of this rubbish
Spurs keep up their ability to beat
newly promoted relegation fodder. It was a struggle but Spurs managed their first win in five games as newly promoted and now newly relegated Burnley coughed up a lead to lose to a couple of crackers from the defenders. read the rest of this rubbish
It was all so predictable for Spurs
before it started. Spurs latest defeat - third in a row, fifth in the last eight - was totally predictable before it started as they went down to Liverpool after showing very little life until the end, looking like the season was done. read the rest of this rubbish
