There was lots of dancing today on the grave of Jose Mourinho … but also on the soul of football, that is being destroyed on the altar of galloping greed. If the plan for the elitist ‘European Super League’ goes through I for one will turn my back on the once-beautiful game that has held me in its grip across seven decades.

As we reported here on Spurs Odyssey last week, Julian Nagelsmann has been lined up as the next Spurs manager after Marmite Man Mourinho lost the dressing-room and the support of the majority of Tottenham fans. So, it should have come as no surprise to our readers that José was on his way out.

It means Spurs go into Sunday’s League Cup final against Manchester City rudderless, just as a revolution sweeps through the game, wrecking football as we know and love it............

Spurs have Harry Kane to thank for two goals that put him clear seventh in the all-time list of Premier League scorers which also gave us a point. In truth we didn't deserve any more than that and this is a result which does neither team a favour with regards to their hopes of qualifying for Europe next season. An additional worry for Spurs is the fact that Kane hobbled off at the very end of the game after suffering a knock when defending an added time Everton corner. We now have to wait and see if our talisman will be fit for our one (slim) chance of glory in next week's Carabao Cup Final.........

THFC would not allow me the fly the Spurs Odyssey flag in the stadium for these behind closed doors games but it will feature in my match report!

Never mind Champions League. Qualifying for Europe at all will be a challenge. Our best chance might be the League Cup Final, but an unlikely victory in that game would only give us passage to a new third tier European competition. Better to take next season off Europe and have the easier programme that has enabled West Ham to be six points ahead of us tonight. I can't remember the last time that happened.

Spurs had a first half lead, which arguably they did not deserve as United had a goal disallowed because Son had been slapped in the face in the build-up to the "goal". Sorely aggrieved, United were clearly fired up to avenge what they saw as an injustice, and ultimately they did that convincingly........

A team which has top four aspirations should be able to beat a bottom four team. Unfortunately, this didn’t happen today as Spurs’ supporters endured yet another frustrating afternoon. Spurs fell behind shortly before the half hour mark not unexpectedly. They then scored two quick goals in their only purple patch during the game before succumbing to yet another late goal.

Spurs who had performed reasonably well in their last game before the international break winning at Villa Park against Aston Villa named an unchanged side with Son among the substitutes for the first time since being injured in the north London derby. Newcastle’s last outing was a poor 3-0 defeat at Brighton, so it wasn’t surprising that they made five changes with Murphy, Krafth, Ritchie, Longstaff and Gayle replacing Manquillo, Clark, Hayden (injured), Fraser and Willock. Like Son, a key Newcastle player Saint Maximin returned from injury to the substitutes bench.........

Our under-23 side are third and the U-18 side sit fourth in their respective league tables. (Updated 18.04.21 ). The PL2 side lost 4-1 at home to Chelsea on 18.04.21. Our U-18 side lost at home to West Brom in the Youth Cup on 13.04.21 in difficult circumstances. Latest tables for both sides can be monitored at the Premier League site.

This season, due to the ongoing social distancing measures in place to guard against COVID-19, all our home fixtures in the Premier League 2 will be played at Hotspur Way. PL2 and Youth Matches will be staged behind closed doors until it is safe for fans to return.

Therefore Spurs Odyssey will not be allowed to attend these games until further notice. The fixture pages for both levels will be regularly updated with links to the Spurs Official Site reports, whilst monitoring our scorers and league position throughout the season.

The most epic thread on The Spurs Odyssey message board was one which started in 2010. This provided the history of our new stadium applications (including the thankfully unsuccessful bid for the Olympic Stadium) right up to the present day with images of the completed new stadium. In the early hours of Saturday 20th October, 2018, our stadium thread reached 1,000 pages! There is a genuine community feel about the board, which is moderated.

Every Spurs match is covered with excellent threads, which feature images and stats from previous games. There is so much to enjoy about the message board which also has an off-topic section where non-football matters are discussed.

There is also a great archive of filed material with links to some great Spurs history and goals.

If you would like to become even more involved, then please e-mail me (webmaster@spursodyssey.com) stating your full name, address (Town and Country will suffice!) and desired user name, and I will do the rest.

I look forward to hearing from you!
