Goodbye Hong Kong

Daniel on May 31, 2008 | 1 Comment

It was all too good to last. After much soul searching we have decided to up sticks and move to Shanghai. This has been a very, very difficult decision for many reasons mostly based around the fact that Spurs in Hong Kong has been such a huge success but I have to progress my career and in Hong Kong (for whatever reason) this is not happening. I would stay in the big Lychee forever - the life, the people, the environment (pollution aside) is now very familiar to me and it is my home. All is perfect if only I didn’t have to work but, alas, I have to and the companies I have encountered here are not able to offer me the things I need right now.

Spurs in Hong Kong will be watching the game UPSTAIRS at Delaneys (HK) this Saturday with the kick-off at 11:00pm.

If you are a Spurs supporter in Hong Kong then come and watch the game with us - we won’t ignore you we promise. Anyone is welcome (as long as you are Spurs of course) and it promises to be a packed house so don’t be shy. Spurs in Hong Kong is an open house and everybody is welcome. We look forward to seeing all the usual suspects as well as some new faces. See you there…

It is tricky to decide where to begin when reflecting upon Tottenham’s season. Should the emphasis be upon the first trophy in 9 years and European qualification, or the mid-table finish and lethargic end to the season?

Football is a tumultuous game and football fans can sometimes have short term memories. The recent run of results for the last 2 months have been disappointing. Not exactly poor, but flaccid, inconsistent, disinterested. A string of 1-1 draws against Middlesboro, Blackburn, Wigan and Bolton epitomised this mediocrity. The heavy defeat at Birmingham may have been put down to overblown Wembley celebrations taking their toll, but the second-half mauling at home to Newcastle was inexplicable and surely unacceptable in all Lilywhite eyes. Wins over Portsmouth, Reading and West Ham, and a thrilling 4-4 draw with Chelsea complete a run since lifting the League Cup of Won: 3, Drawn: 5 and Lost: 3. Not good, but certainly not terrible.
