Alternative PL table 12 taking into account injuries. I’m more encouraged but the Arse’s drop than Spurs rise. Spurs need to first prove they can get & stay healthy, but Gabriel may be the crack in the proverbial damn. Let it be so. #COYS

Now that SCR is in and PSR is out starting next season, who does it benefit? Note that the 85% threshold in the EPL is already set at 70% by UEFA for those clubs competing in Europe.
Spurs are on solid footing. #COYS

I am reading that Ivan Toney wants to come back to the EPL so badly that he is willing to accept a 50% pay cut from his £400+k/wk salary. Plus, due to income tax implications, a loan is preferred.
If all is true (& of course, who knows?), then a Toney loan in & Tel loan out could make sense. #COYS

First snowfall of the season as temperatures here in New Jersey have dropped to the freezing point. Just light flurries blown by strong wind gusts, but I’m not ready for winter.

Some very nice guesses (and data for me to review)
I’m chatting with Barnaby Slater, the host of SpurredOn. He started the first Tottenham YouTube fan channel ten years ago and now hosts a daily pod.

It looks like virtually everyone (except Maddison) will be available after the international break. Just in time for the NLD on the 23rd & PSG on the 26th. #COYS

Four weeks ago our federal government shut down. 730,000 federal employees have been working without pay since that time. Another 670,000 federal workers are furloughed without pay. Mortgages, rent, college loans, car payments…all interrupted. (1)

It’s being reported that a ruling on the Manchester City 115 PSR charges will be announced before Halloween. How will they rule? 🤔
