That, of course, pre-dated last night's Spurs - Palace game.

Spotted on google.... St Totteringham's Day. 2025/2026 Season: Sunday 1st March 2026 Achieved in 28 Matches 1st March 2026 Update: We have much to celebrate today! St. Totteringham's Day has been achieved, and its the earlist ever on record! With Fulham beating Spurs 2-1 at home, Tottenham are mathematically unable to catch Arsenal! 28 matches is all it took, with 10 to spare! It's a two-fold combination: First, Arsenal being on top of the league for so long, with an impressive, albeit not perfect form. And secondly (let's be honest), more down to the fact that Spurs have been ABSOLUTELY awful this season!
As of writing this, it has been 10 Premier League games since the Spuds won a match, and they have not won anything in 2026. Ouch. Considered we had 6 painful years of no St. Totteringham's Day, the last few years, in particular the last two seasons have felt somewhat like a walk in the park. The gap between Arsenal and Tottenham is arguably as wide as it has ever been.
Naturally, all eyes turn towards the Premier League - can we do it? We are still in all four competitions, and my feeling is if we win one we will win more. I am starting to believe that we might just do this, but there's a long road to go still. The game that will probably decide the fate of us is the Man City away game on the 22nd March. If we beat them there, we'll go on to win the league.
As for the future of St. Totteringham's Day, well, if I'm honest I hope Spurs don't go down. Sure, we'll all have a good laugh. But it will make this website seem rather pointless! When do we celebrate St. Tott's if Spurs get relegated? Arguably it would be the first day of the season as that's the mathematical date. We're getting ahead of ourselves, but I believe they will find a way to scrape into 17th, again. Congratulations to the Gunners again this year, and LES DO DIS!https://www.whenissttotteringhamsday.com/

It was a gorgeous day at Wollaton Park GC today, easily the nicest day of the year so far. Not only that but we were back on the grass tees instead of those pesky winter mats, and also no temporary greens so back on the proper greens which are in better condition than I have ever seen them at this time of year. They don't usually come good until May so this bodes well for the early season. The two holes that have been closed for some time, 14/15 were fully in play too. The meteorologist chaps were right. Spring appears to have actually sprung today! I only played the back nine - it's going to be back nine first+mats until the 21st I believe then back to normal - but instead of the absolute crap I've been producing lately, hit the ball quite well which was a pleasant surprise, and finished off with four straight pars and feeling quite pleased with myself. I tried to post some pics but the files are too big and I ended up losing this post first time around

My Daily Supplement Routine
Alongside 10,000 steps a day and gym training 4 times per week (walking is usually along the beach which makes it easier ), this is the supplement routine I currently follow.
Morning (with breakfast) • 1 tsp Psyllium husk with water ( many health benefits ) • Daiteca Vitamin D 3 + K2 – 2 capsules (5,000 IU D 3 + 200 mcg K2) • Omega-3 Fish Oil 1000 mg – 1 capsule
Lunch (with food) • Turmeric Joint Complex – 1 capsule • Omega-3 Fish Oil 1000 mg – 1 capsule
Evening (with dinner or before bed) • Magnesium Glycinate 450 mg – 1 capsule

It being Ramadan should make no difference to numbers as gambling is Haram for followers of the Muslim faith. However I live in the real world and suspect that it probably does. Ho hum, life goes on.
My first job after university was in one of the livelier William Hills in NW London - the clientele was full of characters. One day two of them got into a massive row about something or other. One of them said to the other 'You shouldn't even be in here - you're a Muslim' To which the Muslim replied 'You shouldn't be in here either - how that judge only gave you a suspended sentence for throwing that traffic warden through that shop window I'll never know' So lovely to hear from you Andrew. Do you & your brother still play Online poker? One of you was "Dr Marbles" iirc? Still in touch with Claire/Claw? Anyone else from the old gang? What are you doing these days? No - out of the poker game. I qualified for the Seniors last year so gave the seniors event at the Irish Open a spin and managed to make the final table. Standard of play just like the old days - nitty and stationary, reraises with super-premiums only. Managed to bust in the most seniory way possible - facing a river bet on a two spade board I worked out that he could only have been on a flush draw so called his bluff only to learn I'd misread the board and the river club was actually a spade. When I went down I couldn't believe how big the IPO was - back in the poker boom they held it in a hotel but it's now in the big RDS conference centre and people were there from all over the world for the ten days. I had no idea that poker was still a big thing. I play a weekly Zoom quiz with Claire Dan and Curtis which is a fun way to while away an hour or so - we're in a league where we play Only connect style games against other teams. I work in cybersecurity now - trying to keep one step ahead of the AI which may either save us or destroy us.
