Fixture Focus - Spurs (21 Sep 2008)




Tottenham Hotspur vs Wigan Athletic FC 




I would like to take this opportunity to make the following announcement: I would now stop harping on the claim that we would be in the Top 4 by the end of the season.

After 4 league games and no wins, Spurs is literally down at the bottom of the Premier League. Although the fans at the Lane had an uplift of morale during the midweek UEFA fixture, the current performance at the EPL is still a cause for concern.

For this home fixture against Wigan, past statistics would favour us; the visitors had never won at the Lane since their promotion, and the scores are typically high, to our liking. However, as demonstrated last week against Villa, such statistics and jinxes can be broken.

This match is also significant for Ledley King, as this would be his 200th appearance under Spurs colours. It would be more prudent if Ramos could field the side that won the UEFA Cup fixture, and play more agressively.

COYS!
