Fixture Focus - Spurs (3 Oct 2009)



Bolton Wanderers FC vs Tottenham Hotspur








Spurs are travelling up to the Northwest to meet up with the Trotters. The Reebok Stadium, though traditionally a fortress, have in this season somewhat become breached, for now. They have drawn 1 game and lost 2 while at home, and though it may be statistical, this may pose a boon for our side to hang on to the top 4 placing should we win there. But, statistics again, we have not won 1 game there since....lemme see....at least 5 meetings ago, or even more?

With Defoe out with a hand injury, Harry had indicated that Crouch may be in the starting lineup. And we welcome the return of Dawson from his injuries, and with Bassong's "knock-in-the-head" is not that serious, our centreback would be back in reasonable strength.

This would be a good game to watch, firstly whether we could break the "Reebok curse", and also our ability to maintain that top of the table (world) feeling.

COYS!!!!!
