Yes Martin, We Know You Love Us ReallyPosted on November 6th, 2007 by ETP There seems to be this shared feeling sweeping around the internet at the moment, pervading the minds of spurs fans young and old.

Let this be the first and possibly last time I will ever defend Levy … |

Villa Gatecrash Spurs Party as Jol is Handed Late Kaboul PresentPosted on October 2nd, 2007 by ETP
It was supposed to be a celebration of 125 years of footballing excellence; a fiesta of flicks, tricks, Legends and Lane Favourites, symbolic of the Great Tottenham Tradition. And, in a way, it was: Spurs somehow contrived to concede four ...

Tactical Cowardice Costs Tottenham Once MorePosted on September 1st, 2007 by ETP Martin Jol is often accused of failing to act decisively in using substitutions but today against Fulham it was his rashness in changing an apparent winning formula which cost Tottenham dearly. The media darling who cuts a "tough guy" mafioso figure today betrayed that image with some worrying wimpishness that would make Napoleon Dynamite look like John Rambo.
Tottenham bossed the midfield for most of the match today, but it was Jol's senseless decision to withdraw Malbranque and Keane which turned the tide. It is easy to look back and second guess, with the benefit of hindsight, but this has happened more than once during the jovial Dutchman's reign - Jol's conservatism snatching defeat (a draw felt like one) from the jaws of victory when going for the jugular might have produced an even more emphatic result.
