Spurs

I watched Spurs/AC Milan in the pub last night with Irena, Jude and Daryl and an array of other random people who had come in the for the game.

As you know, the Taps is mainly a Spurs pub, although there’s often a fair Arsenal contingent in as well, and it’s therefore always really busy for Spurs games, and particularly so for the big games (and games don’t get much bigger than the knock out stage of the European Cup against AC Milan in the San Siro), and there was a really quite tense and nervous atmosphere in the pub. Everyone was up for it from the start and the game itself didn’t disappoint. It was just nice to share that communal experience in your local pub with friends, and indeed with strangers.

[Although Jude’s insistent and, as the game went on, increasingly more vehement calls for someone to ‘do’ Gattuso, was slightly worrying].
