This fixture last year was an end to end hoofathon that saw Spurs playing catch up, equalising twice and finally leaving with many home fans booing.
It wasn’t The Lane’s finest hour, but the real culprit was one Uriah Rennie. Clearly his time at ‘The Three Stooges Refereeing Academy For Porkers’ hadn’t covered the complexities of ‘awarding throw-ins to the correct team’…
This game sees both teams failing to replicate last season’s league form, but Wigan sit two points above Spurs with their official site brandishing the fact that the ‘Lactics have the 4th best form in the Premiership over last 8 games’.Well, we’ll be sure to both put that in our pipes and to smoke it.
What else can I tell you? Heskey’s calf injury makes him look doubtful. He normally looks exhausted, so a rest is as good as a change.
Tottenham are going to be minus Jenas but otherwise looking to nail yet another rarity, a Premiership goal in open play.
I think they’ll do it twice.
2 – 1 to the Tottingham.
