Saw this recently. It’s somewhere in Wales.

“Look at what they make you give”

This is actually from Ali’s article. Here’s the wider context. All he’s saying is that the guys at Spurs don’t know what he wants as well as the ones at Brentford did, given how long they worked together, and that means a bit more explaining until they get there.

Alex and Iain ride again?! I’m there.

Funny you mention Dundee United, as my Dad sent me this pic of me and my sister corca 1990 recently - and asked why on earth I had a Dundee United poster on my bunk bed all those years ago. “Look at that kit, Dad”, was my reply.

As requested, here’s my favourite Tottenham (Hotspur) souvenir - a ball kicked in to the crowd at the start of the 1982/3 season and caught by my Godfather. He handed it to my Dad and told him to give it to me - I was only a few months old. I just got the case recently. One of my favourite things.

Picture of Iain reactivating his social life…

Works out at about an average of 20 games a season missed in the 2.5 years since he joined Spurs. I feel bad for him but its clear we can’t rely on him, sadly.

My maths is bad but I make it about an average of 5 games a season missed for Everton over 4 years. His average for us over 2.5 years is ~20 games missed each season, and it seems that’s about to get worse again. I feel for him, but it just isn’t working. 😢
