Football Premiership - Spurs defeated... yet again !

I am really running out of titles to call these Tottenham Hotspurs Blogs. Tottenham Lose, Spurs defeated, The Woe Continues, Tottenham still without a win.. etc etc

After the opening 7 games without a win, I was wondering how it could possibly get any worse. And now I know.

It was playing Stoke City, the next team up in the table, getting two players sent off and losing 2-1. Now with Spurs, no awful result surprises me.

This was the chance to turn things around. Newly promoted Stoke City are hardly World beaters. All was going well until the 17th minute. Tottenham conceded a Penalty, Defender Bale was sent off and Stoke's Higginbotham converted the chance.

1-0. Now Spurs were really up against it.

Arguably offside, a glimmer of hope was offered by Bent who managed to equalize and for a while Tottenham had most of the play despite being a man short. But... to continue the abysmal theme of the season, City scored again in the Second Half and Tottenham Hotspurs never came back. Stoke could have arguably scored another, missing a second Penalty awarded.

Dawson was the second Spurs player given the red card deep into injury time to round off yet another thoroughly miserable afternoon.

City fans joyfully chanted, "You're getting sacked in the Morning!". I don't think this was aimed at their own Manager somehow. Juande Ramos must go now surely. Eight games, two points and NO wins.

The Premiership: Tottenham lose yet again !

Unbelievably, Tottenham have lost in the Premiership yet again! This is now the worst start to a season for over 100 years. There is only one word to convey this and that word is, "Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Visiting Hull City beat Spurs 1-0 at White Hart Lane creating a North London Double after beating Arsenal the previous week.

Brazilian, Geovani, scored a wonder goal from 35 yards for Hull in just the 9th minute of play and a lacklustre Spurs never fought back. Woodgate should have equalised just before Half Time, but his shot bounced off a Hull defender and hit the post.

Tottenham remain bottom of the League and are now 4 points into the Relegation zone. The misery continues. When will Tottenham win a Premiership game? Answers on a postcard.

The Premiership: When will Tottenham win?

When will Tottenham Hotspurs win their first game in the Football Premiership? Lord, if I know. This has officially been the worst start to a season for 34 years and that is certainly longer than I can remember.

Spurs scraped an unconvincing win in Europe this week, courtesy of an own goal against Wisla Krakow. They go through to the next round 3-2 on aggregate, but they were lucky and it was hardly a performance to spark any great confidence.

What is going on?

Spurs are the only Premiership Football team yet to win a game. Their seventh match is at home against Hull City. Hull were promoted last season and have had a great start to this year's campaign. They lie 6th in the table just 3 points off the League leaders, Chelsea.

Hull so far have performed greater than anyone had expected, but surely they are going to suffer a drop in form sooner or later. Hopefully it will be this Sunday, Tottenham will finally make Home Advantage count and seriously start to make inroads to getting out the Relegation zone!

It is still early days in the season, but with just 2 points from 6 games played, it's the potential start to something that doesn't end at all well.

What is Happening to Tottenham Hotspurs ???

At the time of publishing this blog the date is September 23rd 2008. It hasn't been the best start to the season for Tottenham and there is no positive spin you can put on it. Believe me... I've tried !!!

What is happening to Tottenham Hotspurs ???

Spanish Manager, Juande Ramos, former UEFA Cup Winner managing Sevilla was supposed to restore the clubs fortunes. After the first 5 games, Tottenham lay last with just 2 points !!!

16 Aug, 15:00 Middlesbrough 2 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur Premier League
23 Aug, 15:00 Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 2 Sunderland Premier League
31 Aug, 13:30 Chelsea 1 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur Premier League

I thought the draw at Chelsea was the start of a U-turn in the Premiership, but it just got worse with first, losing at Home to Aston Villa and then drawing at Home to Wigan.

15 Sep, 20:00 Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 2 Aston Villa
21 Sep, 15:00 Tottenham Hotspur 0 - 0 Wigan Athletic

This is just awful and Tottenham seriously need to improve. Last year Spurs conceded many Goals, but this was negated as they also scored a lot as well. So what happens this season? Strikers Robbie Keane, Sold to Loverpool. Berbatov, Sold to Man Utd.

This is very worrying. New signing Modric is injured and it is unclear whether Palychenko will be a success in the Premiership. I am keeping my fingers crossed for a sudden upturn in form. Surely Champion Ramos can do something, can't he?

The next match sees Tottenham away to fellow strugglers Newcastle in the Carling Cup. Newcastle are just one place above them in the League table and I'm just praying they have a stinker. The next League game is against Portsmouth.
