The Tottenham Way

We're here for a Summer special!

Tom and Dan are joined by Greg Stobart and Gerry Cox, two journalism big-hitters here to discuss how following Spurs from the press box has changed since the 90's. Gerry tells us many a tale, including drinking on the plane to Uefa Cup games, seeing Steve Carr ruin one of his on-the-whistle reports, George Graham's media training and accidentally driving 2 hours to Belgium. He's not one to miss.

We move onto our summer transfer activity, or indeed lack of, and wonder what is needed to combat our Wembley woes. How will Pochettino approach the season? Is Walker not 'one of the boys'? Do we rate Trippier highly enough? All this plus Facebook taking over Spurs.

These summer specials have been made possible by Harry's, a US shaving company making their way over to the UK to pass their amazing savings onto you. To support The Tottenham Way and Harry's, visit www.harrys.com/tottenham to claim your trial set.

It's the last episode of the season, and Tom and Dan are joined by old friends of the podcast Jim and Oly to talk about a ridiculous week where this beautiful team spanked 13 goals past actual Premier League teams. Does how we ended the season put to bed the criticism of Poch? Seven of those thirteen goals came from Harry Kane, helping him win the Golden Boot for a second season in a row - who can we put him up alongside in world football? How lucky are we to have him, and perhaps how unlucky were we to lose him to injury this season?

We move on to a full season review, assessing how we feel we did in the league and cups. Why did we challenge for, but not win, the Premier League for a second season, and what do we need to do to take that final step? We also pick our favourite goals, games and moments from a memorable campaign.

Dan brings a 'quiz' along for some end of season fun, but overall, we just got a bit drunk in a boiling hot recording studio and acted like it was the last day of school before summer holidays. It's been great, and thank you for joining us. See you next season. COYS.

This week, Tom and Dan are joined by Ben Schiffer, 21 years a season ticket holder and ready to join us in mourning at the loss of our great old beautiful ground, White Hart Lane.

We get straight down to business, the glorious scenes from before, during and after the game, with legends and fans taking to the pitch in a show of pure emotion.

There doesn't feel like anything more to say, so have a listen to us reminisce over our favourite goals, players and moments from over the years. If you ever set foot inside that stadium as a Spurs fan, you'd understand.

We are Tottenham, super Tottenham, we are Tottenham, from the Lane. And we always will be. COYS.

This week, a very weary Tom is joined in his flat by Dan to discuss the disappointing loss to a horribly gleeful West Ham, and why we cannot afford another disastrous run to end our season this time around. Are the players 'on the beach' having confirmed our top 4 place, and did they ever really believe they would catch Chelsea? And what do we think of the 'bottlers' tag that Spurs have been assigned?

Of course, the big talking point this week is the how the end is in sight for White Hart Lane. How are we feeling about it, and what do we expect from a Mourinho team who would love to spoil the party? What do we need to do to ensure our season at Wembley stands a chance of holding a candle to this campaign? And who would we put in the stocks to have rotten food thrown at them for the parade after the final whistle?

Lots more including Walker, Lloris, Dier and Levy, and a bit of Belgian chocolate. Time to say goodbye. COYS.

This week, this glorious glorious week, Dan and Tom are joined by old podcast favourite Harry Sherlock to discuss Spurs finally - FINALLY - lifting the curse of St Totteringham's Day. How did we feel watching us demolish a sorry excuse of an Arsenal side in the last North London Derby at our old ground?

We ask where the game itself was won and lost, including the imposing performance of Victor Wanyama and the increasing influence of Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli.

Sadly, we have to address the issue of Kyle Walker, who has for some reason decided to jump ship from the Tottenham project. What drives a decision like that, and where could he get it any better than he has now?

We preview West Ham and our 4th London derby in a row, with a listing Hammers side in terrible form. This plus some listener questions.

Don't let anyone tell you not to enjoy this feeling. Finally. Glory. COYS.

A bumper episode this week, as Dan and Tom are joined by Liam Twomey, as usual after we face Chelsea, and it's a pod debut for Crystal Palace fan and journalist Greg Lea, here to preview a big week ahead for Spurs.

We begin with the sad news of Ugo Ehiogu passing away, and how big a hole he leaves at the club, before moving onto Wembley. Where did we go wrong? Did Pochettino experiment and did it completely backfire? And how ridiculous was the difference between the two benches on the day?

Thoughts turn to Palace and a chance to bounce back quickly, and Greg gives us the lowdown on their brilliant recent form. Can we get back in the saddle ahead of the North London Derby this weekend? Speaking of which, oh my good god it's the North London Derby this weekend and we have a chat about that too.

All this plus some listener questions, and an incredible revelation from Liam involving a Premier League mascot and one of the biggest selling bands in the world today. It blew our minds.

Don't panic. COYS.

A giddy Dan and Tom are joined by the excellent Tom Allnut to smash straight into the title talk. There's no escaping it; we;re in it, but can we win it? We talk Chelsea nerves, important games and psychological edges.

We discuss Bournemouth and the return to the score sheet for Mousa Dembele, as well as the statistical miracle of Harry Kane, who's hit 20 for the third straight season. Also Janssen's first goal, and Wilshere's injury. Was it all a bit much, or completely in keeping with the rivalry?

Thoughts turn to the Cup semi-final, and ramifications of the result on the title run-in. We also work out what to do with Son, who is on fire but is the obvious one to lift out to match Chelsea's 3-4-3 formation. Could you tell his little sad face that he wasn't playing? Could you?? Also Tom asks if Vorm have a big fake injury...

It's going to be a long month. Enjoy it. Drink it in. COYS.

An El Classico (again) this week, and Dan and Tom are left to relive the amazing scenes at Swansea and what that fightback symbolises about this Tottenham team, as well as the routine home win against Watford.

With 3 wins in a week, we discuss the amazing contributions of Son, Eriksen and Alli in Kane's absence and how the supporting cast graduated to the lead role without incident. Alli, in particular, is turning into a superstar, so what's behind his success? And how long can we realistically keep him if he's doing this every week...?

Thoughts turn to Bournemouth, who are next to face the animal of Spurs at White Hart Lane and the chance to reach twelve home wins in a row. Will Kane return and, if so, who do you drop for him?

We finish with a discussion on Luke Shaw, prompting talk of Mourinho vs Pochettino and the polarity in their methods. Is the managerial torch being passed? Plus a question from an ACTUAL MAYOR OF A TOWN. Big time. COYS.

We're back! This week, Tom and Dan are joined by Greg Stobart, who begins the episode with some personal career news and why he's fallen out of love with football journalism. We talk about how a dream job becomes 'just another job', which is something for Dan to really look forward to.

We move onto Burnley, and a win that sees the title race blown wide open (sort of). Can we do it? What will we have learned from last season's fruitless pursuit of Leicester? And should we continue to keep an eye on things below us, knowing how we imploded last May? We talk Dier, the unsung hero of the season and a victim of his own versatility. Can we afford to lose him to United? Plus Alli's continued dominance, Son being the league's best squad man, and Winks and Wanyama injury updates.

We preview Swansea and Watford, with an eye on some old boys possibly coming back to haunt us, including Tommy Carroll who gets his weekly podcast mention.

Two wins could see us go a point behind Chelsea by Saturday 3pm. Believe. COYS.

Dan and Tom are joined by Adam Nathan, here to bring you his fresh controversial views (sort of). We start with a quick look at the FA Cup semi final draw which sees us play Chelsea, yet again, at Wembley. Can the rumours suggesting Vorm will play be true, and if so, how much does that harm our chances? We move on to Southampton, and a nervy but crucial victory, particularly without Kane. Did we see any promise that we will fair better this time around without our top scorer and talisman? And if we do, how much will we owe the increasingly influential Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen? We look at Alderweireld, Winks and Vertonghen too. It's international week, so we take a swipe at the schedule and wonder whether our form can survive a break. Burnley is previewed, with some not so fond memories included, and listener questions are answered including whether or not this is Vertonghen's best season to date. COYS.
