The Joy Of Six

by

Milo, Ram and Gareth celebrate our 100th episode with a look back at our 6-2 thrashing of Leicester, spend less time than it take Sonny to score a hattrick reviewing the Sporting Lisbon game, rejoice in Eric Dier’s return to the England fold and reveal why high speed Conte is the best reason for signing up to Spurs Play.

Derbies and Dystopia

by

Steff, Milo and Gareth look back the summer transfer window, the draw at West Ham and the win over Fulham, eulogise the life-force that is Richarlison, and realize that next week’s match against Man City is actually a battle between cyberpunkish good (the aforementioned Richy) versus cyborg Bond villain Evil (Haaland). We also wonder if we’re too old to get away with Richy’s hair (not Milo or Gareth, just, err, Steff). 10 minute sin bin for him anyone?

Hats Off To Harry

by

Milo and Steff are joined by special guest, Caroline Stefko, of N17 Women and the Spurs Across The Pond newsletter to look back at our win over Nottingham Forest, ponder what is shit-housing versus genius, discusses ‘that’ assist, and revel in the joys of consistent drinking. We even find the only true words of coherent genius Pete Doherty managed as a Libertine, and that’s a fact.

Seoul Brothers

by

Steff, Ram and Milo look back at the highly successful South Korean tour, evaluate the week’s rumours, ponder punchable faces in footy, find out Milo’s favourite jersey for the 2022/23 season and connect the dots as to why the away shirt might have been designed to look aquatic. Inspect that turf Richy and do it twice a game near the area…or something like that.

Season Review – 2021/22

by

This week we review our 2021/22 season. Steff, Ram, Ricky and Milo look back at the journey from Nuno to Antonio and all the details within. We also have our second annual awards, the Glory Glenns, as we also ponder the glorious cult ascendance of Emerson Royal. There’s lots to sink into so what are you waiting for?

Ode To Joy

by

Sing sing SING and CELEBRATE with The Game Is About Glory as Steff, Milo, James and Gareth look back at the 5-0 stuffing of Norwich which ensured the return of Champions League Football to the Lane. We also might gloat a tiny bit at our Woolwich neighbours, and we discover that within TGIAG ranks there sits an Aussie-residing Spud from Irvine Welsh’s “Trainspotting”.

Move Any Mountain

by

This week, Steff, Milo and James look back at the 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield (where there was no shamen anybody in what was a Royal performance), and try to stay calm and non-hyperbolic as the biggest NLD ever looms on the horizon. We also look at why Newcastle are a force to be reckoned with, and how Dele could get us back into the CL. Missing all this would be naughty naughty verrry naughty, so 3-2-1…

Squeaky Bum Time

by

This week your The Game Is About Glory team of Steff, Milo, Ricky and Gareth bask in the pressure of this squeaky bum run in, analyses the 3-1 win over Leicester, deliberates the wild sophisticate that is Oliver Skipp and celebrates Ricky’s daughter seeing making her first ever trip to a game and seeing THAT goal. All this and we touch on what a Tight Fit it’s getting to be in the top 4…just got to win away, a win away at Anfield this Sunday, right?!

Dirty Cash

by

This week Steff, Ricky, James and Milo discuss David Pleat joining Pink Floyd for their first new music in over two decades, our 4-0 thumping of Aston Villa, whether thug-life returned to Villa Park, and we take a look back at the role of fullbacks and wingbacks over the last few decades. All this and the first ‘realsmell pod’ as we are brought into the heart of a filthy toilet in Kathmandu. Breeeathe in!
