There’s One Hell Of A Lot Of Jam Coming

By The Boy -

The Gaffer said: “All our players want to be involved in the project for a long time. That’s fantastic for us. It’s a good signal and a good message for our people, for the club. The players commit because they believe in the project and make us very proud.

“He’s our captain, our leader. All the players respect him and identify him like a leader. That is our biggest step forward to sign him and give him a new contract and to show the commitment.

It shows the belief in the project. That is a massive step forward for the club.

All are talking about projects, all are talking about future, all are talking about being happy here. In the way they try to play they are happy. They agree with our philosophy. That is the answer.

The players are happy to be here. For different reasons. Tottenham can provide the facilities, in one year and a half a new stadium. The answer is easy to find why.”


Let me be ruddy bloody clear.

Retaining your best players is a completely sound idea. Better than commendable, it’s vital if you are to sustain what you’re doing.

My question is simply, what are we doing?

I realise this is going to irritate some of you, but we are no closer to winning anything than we ever have been in the last 15 years.

We get into the Champions League and instead of making it a priority, we are so obsessed with milking the wretched thing for every brass farthing becomes a complete and utter farce.

We weren’t interested in participating in the League Cup and it remains to be seen if we will approach   the FA Cup with any less respect.

First it was us dopes, and now it seems to be the player’s turn to buy into the ‘jam tomorrow’ line.

I’m not really interested in philosophy’s or the future.

Sir Alex Ferguson, Bill Shankly, Bill Nicholson and Brian Clough didn’t harp on about ‘projects’, they rolled up their sleeves and cracked on with it.

And those four men actually won stuff.
