Writing a blog is nothing like having an addiction

For example, there is no “cold turkey”. As you’ve perhaps noticed, I haven’t been online this week in the midst of what has arguably been the busiest week of my otherwise uneventful life. Sadly, this means I haven’t been regularly updating the blog. But in spite of doing so almost every day for the best part of three years, I didn’t miss it at all.
Indeed, when I did find a few moments to write something, it struck me that there wasn’t really anything to say. Stories that usually would provoke entire articles (William Gallas moans about something, some striker is injured, we’ve signed a hawk etc) suddenly seemed rather uninspiring.
And it is on that triumphal note that I return. Hurrah.
Spurs have signed one-time Arsenal target Gareth Bale. He’s now firmly on the Michael Carrick-established path of going to Manchester United via Tottenham. I doubt he’d have got in ahead of Gael Clichy at left-back, but it might’ve been interesting to see him play further forward. Alas.
It looks like Jose Reyes is on his way to Athletico Madrid, with some sources indicating a swap deal for Fernando Torres could be on the cards. However, considering our need for width, and with Franck Ribery possibly about to move to Bayern Munich, maybe an exchange involving one-time Spurs target Martin Petrov might be wiser?
Ah. Sugar. Have to run. I’ll add links later. I dunno, jsut google it or something.
