The report I heard seemed to suggest that it was more of a technical issue as to when Tottenham High Road, which is still a crime scene, would effectively be cleaned up, making it impossible for the ground to get a safety certificate.

Correct.

The council can't and won't issue the safety certificate to Spurs.

Not the 'disaster' that Bernie Ecclestone claimed it would be but still very sad.

I feel sorry for the Everton players who were due to make their debuts this weekend.

Good player for a decent fee. Give him a year or so (like we did with Johnson) and he'll be syooperb.

I'll bite mate. Johnson is helpful. £6 million for a defender who has a year left to run? Before you bring up Ashley Young, far more important and better player. Still, better deal than the £18 million you wasted on Tubby.

Pretty confident we will be Top 4 this season.

In fact I just put money on the Top 4 being this @ 11/4

Man U, City, Chelsea, Liverpool

Decent bet that. Arsenal are in the shyyte. Losing players all the time and signing midgets as per. Liverpool definitely stronger.

The players' union, AFE, has announced a strike for weeks 1 and 2 of Spanish league.

Arsene is gonna have £60m+ to spend in 2 weeks, it'll be interesting to see who he gets. (and he'll have to spend, I doubt he'd survive if he didn't)

Dann
Mata
De Rossi/M'Vila

That would make Arsenal a very strong imo. Fab is a loss but he missed a lot of last year anyway, and I rate Ramsey very highly. Gervinho is also an underrated purchase.
