    Spurs 23/24: I'm Loving Big Ange Instead

    City still don't have that Spurs away goal in the league in the 2020s, so stranger things have happened, but it just doesn't seem likely on current form and with current injuries Despite my earlier prediction that the boring things happen (Spurs beat the relegation teams and lose to City), it...

    Spurs 23/24: I'm Loving Big Ange Instead

    There’s a certain amount of this run that’s just as simple as playing the 6, 1, 7 & 3 teams in the table, 3/4ths away, 1/2 away in grounds that are specifically houses of horror for Tottenham, all in a row. I expect they’ll be back to themselves against Burnley and Sheffield, with a likely...

    Everton 23-24: You Don’t Own Me (Yet)

    We're talking "increasingly bad" from the baseline of "they built their wealth tricking drug addicts into selling settlements", mind you. I really hope Everton find somebody else with money, everything I read about 777 made them sound truly loathsome.

    MLS 2024: It’s Leo’s league, we’re all just playing in it

    Second half was decent but not great, first half Revs were getting torn apart but the Fire could not finish to save their lives.

    Week 36 - the pen-penultimatum

    Allowed to kick the head if your heart is pure enough I guess.

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    I think this might be ESL stuff here and he means "recovering at about the same rate as has been expected in the past", not "recovering unprecedentedly quickly, as to make history with its speed"

    The Special Ones (manager talk)

    Howe is underrated I think. He stayed long enough at Bournemouth for the inevitable financial destiny to catch up with them, and people give him limited credit for Newcastle because of the whole Saudi circumstance, but a commonality with both spots is that he did a ton of good work improving...

    5/1: Game 5@Boston

    Good evening, you lovely psychotics mad about how it’s going yet?

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    My favorite part of the game was in the first quarter when they went to the courtside reporter to gush for 90 seconds about how Bam is a locker room leader and Kevin Love wants ‘em to win one for the Gipper and while he was going on, White eviscerated the Heat for a solo 8 - 0 run.

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    Derrick White needs to step it up if he’s gonna beat the Heat, he’s down 31 to 47.

    Global Football Odds & Ends

    Seemed clear that's what was happening, it's a whole club initiative so stupid that only the guy in charge could be responsible for it.

    Spurs 23/24: I'm Loving Big Ange Instead

    Maddison when he's off form is very frustrating to watch, and he's been off ever since his injury for the most part. When he's on, it's all sorts of thrilling creativity and invention all over the pitch and in the penalty box, but when he's off, it's ignoring the obvious quick pass that keeps...

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Nuno throwing away two goals by slow waking injury subs is impressive honestly.

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    If you always bet on PL refs being cowards, you’ll never go broke.

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    If Spurs are going to sell out their defense to generate offense as a tactic, they should actually shoot the ball and shoot it on target. The offense has been very timid in 2024, particularly in first halves. Also whoever is setting up corner kick defense for Spurs needs to not be on the...

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    I think they got screwed by the calls and even then I roll my eyes severely at that kinda tweet shit. Agreed they were pretty dire at doing anything but creating those three penalty shouts.

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    Two penalties and a handball all not called. Refs must fucking hate Mark Clattenburg.

    2024 FA Cup

    Been a big year for gutting cup competitions, wonder what the next one to fall is. EFL have a fat target on their backs I am sure, but I wonder if this will hit any of the other top 5 Euro nations as well?

    Matchweek 33 - In which I can’t come up with anything

    Whoof. Spurs seemed completely shocked by Newcastle doing a back 5 bunker and counter at home and could not solve it on either end. Should probably not be shocked, all teams except the ones with too much pride in their front foot football will do that until it stops working. Spurs are good...

    Spurs 23/24: I'm Loving Big Ange Instead

    When it comes to Udogie and Sarr, I give them both a lot of leeway because I had zero expectation that they would be as good as they have been this season at age 21 in their first full PL campaigns. Locked in iron consistency isn't there for either of them yet, but the highs are very high. Sarr...
