‘We Are Together’

I joined host Charlie Hawkins and Jamie from the Daily Hotspur as the Last Word On Spurs returned to Love Sport Radio for the #SpursFansShow.

The panel reacted to the FA, Premier League, EFL and women’s professional game, together with the PFA and LMA, all announcing that professional football in England will be postponed until April 30 at the earliest.

It appears the FA, Premier League, EFL and women’s professional game are fully committed to ending the season. They have extended the season “indefinitely”, rules had stated the domestic season should be finished by June 1.

The further suspension of English football is no surprise. The game cannot continue as the coronavirus pandemic spreads. The significance of today is the decision of the FA board, and their agreement to “extend indefinitely” the time limit to the end of the season.

‘Trouble On Teeside’

Good to join host Ricky Sacks was joined by Lee McQueen, and debutant Hugo for this week’s Last Word On Spurs as we discussed Lucas Moura rescuing a replay for Spurs after Ashley Fletcher struck opener for Championship side in the FA Cup third round clash.

More misery was piled on Jose Mourinho as Tottenham failed to beat Middlesbrough in the FA Cup. Spurs have been left with an unwanted replay and another fixture on an already-stacked calendar. Lucas Moura’s second half header levelled the game shortly after Ashley Fletcher caught the Spurs back line napping.

It leaves Mourinho again with more questions about his side than answers, as pressure starts ramping up on him and his ability to get the more out of the squad that let Mauricio Pochettino down earlier this season.
