Won't Somebody Think Of The Pigeons? (Q&A)

With the news that club legend Son Heung-min might be leaving, Jack is joined by billie t to discuss why we understand the reasons for that, but why we don't exactly love the idea of it. What's going on with Morgan Gibbs-White, what's the gut feeling? Is it off? We think it might be off. There's been a sack load of questions this week so expect some in-depth discussions on Forest and their owner Marinakis, as well as their increasingly irritating fan base. How are we rating the transfer window? ...

Built in a Lab

Vuskovic, that's it. That's the description. What on earth are we about to unleash unto the Premier League? Surely we won't be loaning him out. Not that we want to get excited about a 45 minute runout against League One opposition, but he may well be our best player already, say Jack and this week's guest Hunter Godson. It's worth mentioning the Kudus was also really great, and is spoken about at length. Where do they all play, you ask? Well, we try to answer that too. Some chat on potential tra...

First Thomas Frank Press Conference | Watch-Along + Reaction

Listen along with me as I react to Thomas Frank’s first press conference as Tottenham Hotspur’s new head coach. Held just before out first preseason game against Reading, the presser gave us a some idea of what Frank wants to bring to Spurs. I give my thoughts on his approach to tactics, journalists asking him leading questions about Levy and the club's tendency for cycling through managers and share my take on what he said about key players like Son and Romero, as well as the club’s transfer pl...

Inside Spurs & Beyond: Q&A with The Athletic’s Jack Pitt-Brooke

In this Thurday Q&A, I'm joined by The Athletic's Jack Pitt-Brooke for a wide-ranging conversation on everything going on at Spurs - past, present, and future. We dig into Ange Postecoglou’s passing of the baton to Thomas Frank, the club’s direction and new-look coaching team and of course, the Morgan Gibbs-White saga. Plus, listener questions, that range from Kane's legacy to the best Tottenham cricketer. Enjoy. Please remember to leave a rating and a review wherever you get your podcasts. ...

New Shiny Thing

Jack is joined by Gavin to discuss the current transfer noises around the club. Romero out? Would we want him out? As annoying as he can be, isn't he still really, really good? Who takes his place? Is Eze now going to Arsenal? That'd be quite annoying... Maybe we'll get Kudus instead? All this, and a lot of Europa League final chat (once again).

Ange Gone

Ange Postecoglou is officially OUT at Tottenham a move that will anger and delight fans in equal measure after a mixed season. Daniel Levy can't get enough of sacking managers, even the fella who delivered the first silverware in 17 years. Jack breaks down the news, looks at where it went wrong for Ange, and discusses the big question: Is Thomas Frank the right man to take Spurs forward?

RTR EXTRA: Liverpool 5-1 Spurs

Tottenham Hotspur were hammered 5-1 at Anfield as Liverpool sealed the Premier League title in emphatic style. Despite taking an early lead through a scrappy Dominic Solanke goal, Spurs were soon overwhelmed by strikes from Luis Díaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, and an unfortunate own goal from Destiny Udogie. It might have been a dead rubber for Spurs, but it still stings. Jack picks through the wreckage of another heavy defeat, reflects on the season as a whole, and looks a...

Is Tottenham’s Culture Broken? Romero, Poch & the Media Bias

Jack’s joined by Phil this week to get stuck into the current state of affairs at Tottenham. They kick off with Cristian Romero’s fiery interview – what does it tell us about the standards behind the scenes at Spurs, and is it a sign of deeper issues? The chat inevitably drifts towards you know who – would bringing Pochettino back be the right move or just another example of the club clinging to the past? There’s also a look at how Spurs are treated differently to Arsenal in the media, and why t...

RTR EXTRA: Frankfurt 0-1 Tottenham

Jack unpacks Tottenham’s tense but vital 1-0 win away at Eintracht Frankfurt - a result that books Spurs a place in the Europa League semi-finals and maybe, just maybe, marks a turning point for Ange Postecoglou and his squad. Amazing character the lads showed on the night, Solanke’s calm from the spot, a backline that finally looked like it had a bit of steel to it and yes, Ange. I’ve said my fair share about him in recent weeks, and after that performance, it might be time for a bit of a rethi...

Stranger Things Have Happened

Tottenham have just lost 4-2 to Wolves, their 17th league defeat of the season and now sit 15th in the Premier League table. In any other season, this kind of form could potentially have them in the thick of a relegation battle. Shocking stuff for a club of this size, and for a side that’s never been relegated from the Premier League. Jack is joined by screenwriter Charlie Brafman to make sense of the chaos. A long-time admirer of Ange Postecoglou, Charlie offers his take on why we should have s...
