When Spurs made a messy business of sacking Martin Jol I was pretty annoyed at how he was treated by the Spurs board.

This guy had put us into the Top 5 on a regular basis and had an improving record in Cup competitions. And all this with young players still to reach their full 'potential'. So I decided that I would try to support him when he found a new club. Just hoped it wouldn't be the scum or barcodes. As it turned out it was Hamburg. I sent him a message of support, found that HSV has an English website and haven't looked back.

While Spurs have floundered Hamburg are now top of the Bundaliga. First game was against Klinnsmann's highly fancied Bayern and we went 2-0 down fairly rapidly only to fight back and run out at 2-2. Results have continued to be better than Klinsmann's even though we lost Van der Vaart and Kompany. Just a 3-0 clobbering by Wolfsburg to blot a great start.

Think we should try and get him back to White Hart Lane pronto.
