Sonny, our captain, had a fantastic September, scoring six goals in six games as we maintained our unbeaten start to the season. Sonny made the perfect start to September after being switched to the central striker role for our first outing of the month, a trip to Turf Moor to face Burnley, scoring a hat-trick, his first in a year, as we ran out 5-2 winners. He then became the first Spurs player in Premier League history to score a brace at the…
Spurs have started the current Premier League season with style, winning six of their first eight games and remaining unbeaten. Wins over Bournemouth, Manchester United, Burnley, Sheffield United, Liverpool, and Luton Town have put the north Londoners in excellent form, and it is their greatest start to a season since 1960/1961, when they won the domestic double. Some misfits from last season have found new life under Postecoglou, who is proving to be an increasingly popular appointment. Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr, who were rarely used by Antonio Conte, have emerged as Tottenham’s new twin midfield pivots, and have…

Andy Ruiz Jr will be remembered for stealing Anthony Joshua’s undefeated record as well as his unified world heavyweight belts. That night in New York in 2019 was one of the biggest heavyweight upsets in the sport, and many believe it influenced Joshua as a boxer even if he easily won the rematch less than six months later. Since then, the Brit has lost both of his championships to Oleksandr Usyk, and he was unable to accomplish so in their rematch. He’s found himself on the comeback trail, and all roads appear to go to Deontay Wilder for him and…

Coventry City will charge Stoke City supporters an eye-watering £37, plus a £1 booking fee, to be in the away end for their Championship clash next month – and charge juniors more than it would cost for a Stoke season ticket. Stoke fans have been shocked by prices which have been announced this morning – particularly as there is a £30 cap for away tickets in the Premier League – but the cost has been creeping up. It was £35 for a ticket at Leicester last weekend and at Bristol City a weekend previously. It has varied so far in the league this season,…
