English Football Season 2010-2011

"You won't catch me making any silly prediction. None of that Tottenham for the title or I'll score 20 goals stuff. These kind of things make a good headline but doesn't bring you anywhere." - Gary Lineker who just signed for Spurs in 1989, in a pre-season interview with Shoot magazine. Spurs was to finish 3rd in that season and Gary Lineker won the Golden Boot. BPL 2010/2011 season start tonight, all I wanna say is Come On You SPURS!!!



I remember when the 1990 England team return from Italia 90, everyone was looking forward to watching the Spurs duo of Gazza & Lineker in action. During those days, normally the season opener live telecast match would feature the present English Champions (Liverpool at that time) game. But the English crowd was overwhelmed by Gazza & Lineker heroics in the world cup, that eventually, it was the Spurs game that got the match of the day live telecast. And they didn't disappoint. Spurs won 3-1 on their opening day with Lineker grabbing two goals and Gazza scoring the other against Manchester City. This year, England football team return from South Africa in shambles, Spurs opening fixture is against Manchester City again. How will Tottenham fare?
