In last season's home game we witnessed a once in 36 years phenomenon as Arsenal won back to back league games at Tottenham for the first time since 1987 and 1988. That 1988 defeat was also a 3-2 when all the goals came in the first half. On that occasion our nemesis won 5 consecutive league and cup games at White Hart Lane.

Arsenal will wear their black away kit for Sunday's north London derby after their home shirt was judged to clash with Tottenham Hotspur's strip.

The Premier League, which has consulted with refereeing body PGMOL, has ruled that Arsenal's new home shirt features too much white!........

The blanket of depression that dropped on many Spurs supporters after yesterday's defeat at Newcastle is an ageing process that I do not recommend. I refuse to become contaminated by the poison of pessimism that is contagious, and Dr Giller suggests some positive thinking as a remedy.

There were 25 minutes in the second-half when Tottenham played the Geordies off their St James' Park, and that's the memory I will take from a match that left us as frustrated as pianists trying to play with the lid closed........

After the transfer window closed on Friday Eddie Howe suggested that his Newcastle squad was not as strong as it was a year ago. Ange Postecoglou expressed his satisfaction with the way the summer had gone. Spurs had lost the last two fixtures at this ground in somewhat humiliating circumstances. Based on the relative progress over the close season this was definitely an opportunity for Spurs to reverse the trend. Spurs showed more creativity over the 90 minutes but that didn't suffice. Newcastle were more effective at putting the ball into the net and Spurs lost in a manner that was quite reminiscent of a number of defeats last season.........

Spurs scored four goals, making it 106 in 65 Premier League games against Everton, and their 21st home win in 33 such games. Skipper Heung-min Son scored his 121st and 122nd Premier League goals - his first of the season. One was gifted by England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. The other was laid on a plate after an excellent lung-bursting end-to-end run by Micky Van de Ven.

Cristian Romero scored from a corner in his 100th club appearance and Yves Bissouma went some way to atoning for his laughing gas sins with an outstanding 14th minute opener. This was a very comfortable win for Spurs against their favourite opposition of the Premier League ever-presents, and it could be their easiest game of the season........

Pre-match favourites Tottenham failed to put away relegation prospects Leicester despite first half domination in which they had no less than 10 corners and probably as many shots including several chances for debutant and record signing Dominic Solanke. The problem was that none of those shots truly bothered Leicester keeper Mads Hermansen whereas Vicario had two crucial saves to make in the second half when Leicester were allowed a come-back and almost a win.

37-year-old Jamie Vardy scored Leicester's goal and spurned another chance just before he was substituted. Vardy had almost no pre-season but declared himself fit. Harry Winks played against his former team for the first time and Oliver Skipp sat on the Leicester squad seats as his transfer (worth up to £25 million) was announced earlier in the day..........

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!
