So this is it: the final furlong, the last hurdle, squeaky bum time. The question is 'Can Gareth Bale haul the flaccid, deadweight of his Tottenham Hotspur team across the Champions League finishing line'? Wednesday's clash with Chelsea will most likely provide the answer.

It's been a funny old season...

There's only one man who's been making the headlines at White Hart Lane recently, but Sunday's performance against Arsenal showed that Tottenham Hotspur have much more about them than just Gareth Bale.

The last few weeks have seen Bale transform from a top European prospect to a genuine world-class player...

Spurs claimed a well-earned point with a display of almost complete dominance against the Manchester United juggernaut on Sunday, but the need for new signings was the take-home message.

It's sad that a ninety-second minute equaliser against Manchester United is celebrated as a victory might be against any other team;...

We constantly hear members of the media lambasting footballers for not acting like good role models or being poor examples for kids to look up to compared to other sportsmen, but why should we all be looking up to them in the first place?

The media relentlessly blitzes us with...

After eight Premier League matches Andre Villas-Boas' Tottenham side find themselves sitting in a respectable fifth place having only lost to Chelsea and Newcastle. Furthermore, Villas-Boas managed to break Spurs' Manchester United hoodoo with a shock win made all the more impressive by the fact that this miracle occurred away...

It was whilst watching Eddie Jordan rhapsodise about how Formula 1 was the greatest sport in the world that it struck me, no, not that I needed to go out and buy a hideous shirt, but that Formula 1 just isn't really a sport is it?

I found it difficult...

Now that the Modric saga is over can Andre Villas Boas please finally sort his new Tottenham squad out and start the season properly?

First of all let's say a big thank you to Luka Modric for the four years of service he gave us. Modric was one of the...

The battle for the honour of being the world's best test cricket team should have been one of the highlights of the summer but the Kevin Pietersen saga has cast a very dark shadow over the spectacle. One that for the sake of English cricket needs to be resolved swiftly.

So here it is, seven years of blood, sweat and tears have come down to this: the greatest show on Earth has arrived. No, not the final instalment of the Batman saga, but rather the 2012 Olympics. It has been a long hard slog to get here but surely now...

So the inevitable has finally happened. After 13 years and 323 appearances Ledley King, one of the few modern Tottenham legends has retired from football.

The biggest compliment that can be bestowed upon Ledley King has to be that he managed to find a place in the hearts of...

Harry Redknapp has always been full of surprises and once again he hasn't let us down. But is his departure really as bad for Tottenham as it's being made out to be? Yes, but then again, not really.

First and foremost it's only fitting that us Spurs fans thank Harry...

The England cricket team run out at Lords, Jonathan Agnew and Henry Blofeld finally give you something worthwhile to listen to on the radio and rain lashes most of the country. The great British summer has arrived.

Most predicted England would beat West Indies going into the first game of...

It's hard to think of an instance in Premier League history of a team's season being composed of two such contrasting halves, but Tottenham Hotspur have a knack of being unpredictable. After an all-conquering first half of the year the wheels didn't so much fall off Tottenham's season but were...

Rarely does Britain produce two genuine contenders for a world title in the same field, but when we do the rivalry is fierce. Think Ovett and Coe. For just over two years now we've been treated to another battle, Jenson Button vs. Lewis Hamilton. Both are fantastic drivers, both are...

So another Masters comes to an end and the winner is, once again, The Augusta National Golf Course. Okay, so some American called Bubba (no, not that one, Forest Gump was just a film) may claim to have won but it's the magnificent 18 holes that will live on in...

If I were Daniel Levy I'd be running, bank account details in hand, to the FA to negotiate the immediate release of Harry Redknapp. I say negotiate, Levy has a reputation for getting big money for average players and with Redknapp and the FA it would be nothing less than...
