The end of season

Sunday was the final day of the Premiership with all matches being played at the same time - I'd misread the kick-off time though and thought they all started at 1pm.

I'd asked Andy to give me a hand dumping a load of junk so I was up early and did a load of housework while waiting for him to call. He picked me up about 12 and we went off to his mate's house to pickup the lorry - we got lumbered into dumping a bed for his mate and some other stuff for my mum when we picked up a sack barrow we needed - that made up one load.

Then it was round to mine and load up with the old fridge, cooker and washing machine as well as a LOT of old computer parts/cases...that made a second load.

After dumping that lot in the rain, we decided his fridge freezer could wait until another time (and we both thought kick-off was approaching) so we went down the pub.

We soon realised I was wrong about the times so settled down to have a few beers - I ended up leaving before the game in the end.

As it turned out - Spurs won 2-1 agains Man City to finish 5th in the league and book their European tour next season.

A great season, having played 59 games in domestic and European tournaments, the whole squad has played the game it SHOULD be played - with skill and flair. Martin Jol is a great manager and I can easily see us finishing in the top 4 next season and getting into the Champions League.

I leave you with the Godfather himself, Martin Jol:
