Boro Away - Prematch Prattle!
We're back Yids and ready to rock.
This campaign is going to be a long one and it starts with a visit to a man who describes being beaten at home 'like being burgled'.
Tottenham don't have great form at Middlesbrough but I'm convinced we'll get a pull for a successful smash & grab at the very least.
This could potentially be a masterclass for Spurs. Boro are almost certain to play deep and want Tuncay or Aliadiere to spring Mido or Alves. If our virtually brand new fully fitted luxury midfield boss it and our defence live up to expectations I cannot see this lot stopping us.
Modric & Co. have far greater intelligence and ability than any of Southgate's charges and it's the midfield that will decide this. As far as strikers are concerned I expect at least another Bent goal and say if he scores on Saturday they'll be no stopping him all season.
Berbatov? Who knows or cares. He's been in the shop window all summer and to what purpose? Faded from prolonged exposure and dead flies his only companions. His position's untenable. When he goes there'll be a scrutiny of what we got for him and if he stays it reflects market forces not desire.
Predictions? 0-2 to the Tottingham which is as good as 11/1 in places where you don't have an existing obligation to the house.
Here's terrific video to get you in the mood from YiDo Productions. More great Spurs vids are available from them and others HERE.
BIOYC!

Harry's Pert Sweaty Fantasy and the entry code is 'oleole'. Signing up is not only free and easy, but do remember, you must pick a squad from the same league you're joining, mine is a Premiership Mini League!
Goodluck armchair generals, Rome (Italy) salutes you!

COME ON YOU SPURS! Cant remember when I was this excited about the start of a season. Actually I can, it was last season!
Like you say Harry, looking at boro's midfield and ours, there should be no problems. Theirs doesnt look any better than Roma's. Or Norwich's for that matter. We have to watch out for this new bloke of theirs Digard tho, he looks like he could be a bit of a player.
I am massively apprehensive about tomorrow, looks like the best lineup we have had in my living memory, but being Spurs fans we all know how things can turn quite quickly. I will close with another hearty COYS!!!!!!!!!!!
Cant wait.
A 1-3 Spurs win for me. Bent, Bale & Modric with a late home consolation.
I cant remember being so positive before a season starts for about 20 years. We need to get off to a great start, at least 16 points from our first 8 games. That will give us the confidence to kick on and grab 3rd or 4th spot.
COYS. 
Where can it be seen?
My promised ticket is no more... 
Harry, I have been wating for this season to start since we won the League Cup! I can't wait any longer.
The usuual pre-match reviews are leaden with worthless comparisons to this fixture last year or Boro's dazzeling thrashing of Man City on the last day of last season. What? Who cares? That is all superflous immaterial drivel. This is not last season. This is the new Tottenham. New goalie, who is aware of his surroundings, a confident cock who won't cower or panic. If King and Woody are fit with Gunther and Bale either side of them we'll have a titanium back bone. Buit the real revolution is in the middle. The fresh sweet filling that has all us hungary bastards qued up around the bakery salivating. Bentley, Modric, Gio, are more than boro can handle. They will be a force to be reckoned with. But the real punishment will come from Mr. Bent.
Oh, of course, Mishka's help would be nice, if he's snapped out of his funk. But we won't come to tatters if he show's up with face as long as a fiddle.
Last year? Who cares about what we did or did not do last year. This is the new model for a new age. Its super charged. The fucking carbon fiber turbo sports model.
Throw yourself into the road darling!
3-0.

I can not wait! It'll seem at lot longer for due to the time difference, Kick is at 6pm for me! Agggh! Going to watch the game with 2 'borough fans, could be interesting!
Bit Concerned that Peckhart did not get a squad number? Any one else think it's a bit strange.
