Mainly Tottenham with a sprinkle of politics and retail.

Jan. 6 Panel Probes Donald Trump’s 187 Minutes as Capitol Attacked as Prime-Time Hearing Approaches The Thursday prime-time hearing will dive intoΒ the 187 minutes that Trump failed to actΒ on Jan. 6, 2021, despite pleas from aides, allies and even his family.

As Trump calls the National Guard into DC for a fake emergency, let's remember that he waited 187 minutes to do it when there was a real emergency.

Fans have very short memories about the football they saw last season. Ended great , but in general it was excruciating. Main issue now though has to be signings.

The greatness of a player is not measured in stats or trophies. It's measured by the indelible mark they leave in the memories of their club's supporters. By that rule, Son is a modern legend, a Spurs great forever. Farewell, you wonderful man.

It’s all about timing and this is pretty much perfect for Son and probably for Spurs under a new coach. Phenomenal player & servant.Without doubt an absolute club legend. Deserves to do whatever he wants. Wanted to lift a trophy with Tottenham Hotspur, and waited until that was completed. Special.

2nd pre season game. Nothing to get excited about yet. But, early days. Squad needs plenty improvements.

Lords amendments to Employment Rights Bill will protect local jobs says BRC CEO Helen Dickinson. πŸ’¬

If the Commons ignore the changes, this will undermine the Government’s own plans to get Britain working again as fewer flexible, part-time jobs will be available. ❌

But you can’t β€˜sacrifice’ Premier League position every season. Need to be Top 6 again first and then take it from there. Ange’s focus on winning was on 1 comp only. The habit of losing in the Premier League is a dangerous one.

Excellent game. Sinner very much in control. Dmitrov’s pecs a major part of the story. Looking forward to this rivalry for the next few years. #wimbledon #tennis

We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

At a time when we desperately need to bring down the temperature, the president of the United States is deliberately turning up the heat. His thirst for chaos and division is dangerous and deeply un-American.

Excellent balanced piece ! I do believe Tottenham when they say it was one of the toughest decisions they had to make. The pathway to Ange going out on a high was narrow , but that is what he has done. Probably the right decision for both.

Well said and pretty much where I am. Fact is that is is a difficult decision with a very narrow path to it being the right one , whatever is chosen. New CEO starts tomorrow. First meeting will be interesting. Don’t forget he stuck with Arteta when many wouldn’t have…

My guess is that he was definitely going , but the win and the aftermath added a massive spanner. Fans have changed minds that were absolutely made up for him to go. Levy and co most likely in same situation. Coupled with the fact he is on holiday . Either way, it needs something said this week.
