After following Spurs for 10 seasons, via various English television, newspaper, and web outlets, I have decided it's time for there to be a voice crying out from across the pond. I spent many months learning the intricacies of English cultural and football vernacular (a special thanks goes out to Jim Duggan) to even understand the information I was being fed, as there wasn't (and still isn't) a decent American source of content and community for Tottenham supporters.
In this common culture divided by language, I wish to open the portal allowing English fans to see how the other half lives. The experience of football/soccer fans in both countries couldn't be more different. In England, football is the nation's birthright. In America, soccer is a punchline. Let's bridge the gap.
I plan on offering previews and reviews of Spurs' matches, and news analysis on all things Tottenham. All done through the eyes, and with resources, of a desert-dweller in the middle of nowhere West Texas.
What could be more compelling than that?
