Well has anybody ever been more wrong? I lambasted the team selection. I said if Spurs scored, there would be no way back – and we could have scored five! And I mocked Jarvis and Maiga, the two goal scorers. Add in criticism of the inclusion of Adrian, who was excellent, Diarra who played with real composure, and Taylor who set up the Jarvis equaliser brilliantly and also forced a superb save from Lloris, and I couldn’t have…

Well I don’t quite know what to say! After struggling in the first 20 minutes we stayed resilient and somehow come out with another win thanks to our substitutions, particularly Maiga, who was involved in everything positive in the second half. The striker who has been struggling this season played the role of ‘super sub’ in the sequel to our 3-0 victory at White Hart Lane earlier this season.

West Ham United had emphatically not read the script. This was supposed to be Tim Sherwood’s big night; the first time that he had managed in the professional game and, also, the first steps towards redemption for Emmanuel Adebayor. Adebayor had become almost Tottenham Hotspur’s forgotten man, although the chairman, Daniel Levy, remained well aware of the monthly direct debit that entered the striker’s bank account. It was one of the …

Well, that’s another payday for anybody who bet against West Ham scoring in the first 45, but credit where credit is due, Allardyce’s team of stiffs has defended stoutly thus far. Spurs have had chances, but not many, and Collins, McCartney, Diarra, O’Brien and Rat have been chucking themselves in front of shots and crosses as if their lives depend upon it. Anybody who wants Allardyce sacked should think about how committed this bunch of players are – until they go behind…
