Tottenham Hotspur FC - Tottenham Hotspur 2013/14 Half-Season Review lyrics

For more on Tottenham Hotspur - see here. Spurs came into the first half of the season as a dark horse candidate for the trophy - while there were certainly others more favoured, few had written off the chances of AVB's revamped squad - after losing prized a**et Gareth Bale, the club brought in seven new signings - former keeper Erik Thorstvedt described the purchases as "[selling] Elvis Presley but [buying] The Beatles!" While some of these signings became instant hits, it was undeniable the club missed the Welshman - AVB's policy of slowly introducing players could be argued to be detrimental to the quality of play, as there was no-one to replace the record sale. While he continued to grind out wins most weeks, many were disheartened at the losses the club took - losing to West Ham and Newcastle could be seen as anomalies, but the losses to Man City (6-0) and Liverpool (5-0) were the last straw, as AVB lost his position as head coach at the club - which I should note, upset this moderator greatly at the time. So begins the era of Tim Sherwood! This is to be continued - he had a terrific start, grabbing 16 of a possible 18 from his first games - the best of any Spurs manager ever. Yup. Good luck to you, Tim - I hope you do well!
