If TWTD has been a thing in May 1961 what would be saying 13:27 - May 16 with 3230 viewsKeno

about the forthcoming months .......

That Spurs team look invincible, could dominate the football for years yet

Town will need to strengthen a lot to have any chance of staying up

See the Yanks have got a man in space but they will catch the Russians up

Anyone heard from Factors since he retired?

I would imagine one response would be along the lines of,

“I am making a note of these comments, just in case age discrimination becomes a thing in the future and that there will exist a body that would be interested in such reports”

Yes, that Spurs team really was a joy to watch, and none of us would have guessed who would take over as champions of England.

Anyone who says they would have guessed is being economical with the truth.

That Bay of Pigs Invasion last month was a mistake. Let's hope it doesn't lead to some sort of missile crisis in October next year.

I was scanning the internet back then precisely to find that sort of ageist abuse.

I was in Hamburg the other week and saw a few bands play. One called “The Beatles”. Stupid name for a band. They won’t amount to much mark my words.

I see somebody called Susan Boyle was born last month.

I predict a singing career for her.


And I also note popular American singer Rosemary Clooney has a newly-born nephew.

As I vaguely recall, most people outside of Suffolk thought Town would get relegated - but Crawford and Phillips gave those in the know quite a lot of hope. Spurs were indeed the greatest team of all time - at least according to Desmond Hackett in the Express and it is rather gratifying to look back and think they haven't won the league since.

Fast forward a few years to McGarry's team and it was a similar scenario with Crawford and O'Rourke - only the big teams were no longer the likes of Burnley and Spurs but Man U, Liverpool and Leeds - QPR were the London luvvies idea of a good team and despite Rodney Marsh got relegated while Town stayed up in some comfort.

And who needed TWTD when you had the letters page in the Green 'Un?
