Munich didn’t destroy us, a decade of mildly disappointing results certainly won’t.

In memoriam.

It all feels rather encouraging at the moment.

I’m sure something will come along soon to spoil the Carrick bounce without my supernatural powers.

100%

Unless there is a raft of signings, which is unlikely.

Jimbo more likely to deport the squad than add to it.

Sadly prophetic since two games in a week appears to have derailed us. Still, we have a nice long break till our next outing.

Finally we’re off the radar as the two North London clubs and the Toon battle it out for media attention.

Media attention has totally changed. It is no longer led by journalists. Just by click-obsessed AI, which has little or no regard for what is traditionally newsworthy.

Man Utd are traditionally the biggest club in the UK. Right now, probably the 3rd or 4th best-funded. And achieving the sort of form that they should have had for the last 10 years is (in this new world order) not newsworthy. Whereas it really should be.

My Club is Spurs. I get the media interest in whether we might go down. What I cannot quite fathom is why a club that has always been popular (for a variety of reasons-we like to think it is because we play the game the "right" way, but coming close without winning much is a factor too) is suddenly reviled. The hate coming from people is something I have never previously experienced. Poking fun at our troubles? Fine. It is the hatred I don't get.

Meanwhile no-one seems to want to mention the £hundreds of millions of rule-bending (at the very least) of Man City or Chelsea. The brilliance of Unai Emery at Villa is not newsworthy. The Liverpool board spend £450 million making the Champions worse, but they seem to be held to a different standard to that of Spurs.

Strange world.
