It still brings a tear to my eye to think not 10 years ago we led 4-1 at White Hart Lane and world appeared quite beautiful. Even if we did fuck it up that night we looked like we had a team/squad that had depth to threaten the upper echelons of the PL. Now, one side is 2-0 vs Chelsea, the other lost 1-0 vs Cardiff in the division below.

The signs of it going wrong were theee though when MON brought on Marlon fucking Harewood who went on to inexplicably give them a pen. Signing a Harewood then was not going to propell us forward.

wonder what would have become of Deli Alli if he had come to Villa, we were interested in him at the time

He had talks at Bodymoor according to the book I read before Christmas. Living on the Volcano - Michael Calvin, worth a read.

Us and Spurs both agreed a fee, he chose them.

Can't think why.

Well I'm not sure how we'd have shoehorned him into our current midfield if I'm honest. They're that good, poor kid would be out at Walsall or somewhere.

Stroll in the park for Citeh, 3-0 up at HT. At this rate they may even bring Delph on for a run around
