The Italian Job

4 July 2011

Good evening Spurs fans. I was discussing classic movies from the 1960's with my beautiful wife the other evening when I visited her in a young offenders unit.

I was reminded of the all-time favourite, The Italian Job and the character, Mr Bridger who was played by the iconic Noel Coward - A 'Mr Big' character, if you will.

To summarize the plot, a gang of daring villans plan an audacious raid in Europe but the all the strings are being pulled by Mr Bridger despite the fact he's languishing in prison.

My question is would you, as loyal Tottenham Hotspur fans think Harry Redknapp could fulfil a similar role if incarcerated and guide Spurs to success in the Europa League next season?

No wums please.

Fair play Boris that did make me chuckle, the irony of the "no wums please" is a classic.

Serial wums can become a bit tedious, especially if they're churning out the same old tripe in every post.

Just to be vaguely on topic, if Cloughie was our manager, he would be Mr Bridger ( "20 efforts on goal against Blackpool !!?? You need bloody shooting (sic) !!!"

And of course, we did got to Milan and steal a goal from under the noses of Don "Pericolo" (God I love that man !!! ) .
