The Spurs Plus Dave Podcast

Dags, Socs and Dave bring you this week's episode as Elio is spared the chore of unpicking a horrible 3-0 defeat to Fulham fresh off the back of such an encouraging win at Villa Park. We try our best to ascertain exactly how Spurs managed to play it quite so Spursily and what this means for the short term and for the bigger picture - with a slight glance forward to next season and Phase 2 of the B...

The good times are back! Dave calls in sick, presumably in an attempt to avoid our insufferable delight as Spurs roll back the months to happier times with our most dominant and important win for some time - perhaps not coincidentally achieved by a lineup resembling that of the pre-Chelsea meltdown era. Dags, Elio and Socs take great joy in dissecting each goal and all the major players, taking ti...

Just like Spurs' winning goals at the weekend, this week's PDP comes slightly later than ideally scheduled but we do our best to review another strong second half showing to see off a particularly unthreatening Palace side and complete a double over them this season. Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave break down a good win and one that leaves us chasing the tails of our next opponents, Aston Villa - in the...

It's quiz time! Without a match or much particularly interesting Spurs chat to get through, we decided not to leave you empty handed this week (because we love you, listeners) and instead bring you a quiz all about Spurs' season so far. Elio, Socs and Dave fight it out to be named quiz champion in a fast paced, chaotic, poorly officiated, horribly planned and disgustingly corrupt trivia extravagan...

Wolves have done it to us again - after another false dawn both in terms of form and fitness, Spurs find themselves on the receiving end of a second 2-1 defeat at the hands of Wolves this season, once again with key players missing and others still on the mend.  Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave sift through the rubble after a disappointing loss that leaves us just outside of the top 4 with a resurgent Ma...

Just like Big Ange, the PDP has a full roster of stars to pick from once again for the first time in what feels like forever. Elio returns from Africa (along with Sarr and Bissouma) and joins Dags, Dave and Socs for a look back over yet another dramatic last minute Spurs winner, this time against Brighton! This episode analyses the win, some of the key players, including those from the bench and t...

Two matches to look back on this week, containing 9 goals, 4 points for Spurs, last minute disappointment, 7 minutes in heaven and a trio of Richarlison goals. Much like Spurs themselves we soldier on without our talisman with Elio joining Sarr and Bissouma on the list of Africa-bound absentees. Man-behind-the-scenes and amateur statistician, Petros makes a follow up cameo very much in the scenes,...

Aussie's dream is over! Spurs are down to just one competition left to play for and will sadly have to settle for winning 'the single'. In a slightly patched up PDP team, in the absence of Elio and Dave, Dags is joined by Socs and the team's long serving producer/sound guy/tech support and occasional editor, Petros - guest on a few episodes of days gone by, who has come armed with his thoughts on...

Join us for a Plus Dave first in celebration of a century of podcasts - this is our first (and maybe last) ever live streamed podcast, special shoutout to those of you who made it to YouTube to watch live, for the rest of you, we hope you enjoy it here. On this 100th episode special we look back on our 2-2 draw at Old Trafford, including a few noteworthy performance and debuts. We also look ahead...

Welcome back for a long-awaited return of the Plus Dave Podcast as Dags, Elio and Dave convene to discuss a win in the league followed by a win in the cup, but not before we listen live to the FA Cup draw to see who Spurs and Leeds both draw for the 4th round. This week you will hear our thoughts on wins over Bournemouth and Burnley, a preview of imminent clashes with both Manchester clubs and som...

Season's greetings to you all and thanks for patiently awaiting the festive return of the PDP. Santa delivered 3 points to Spurs in one of his more generous gifts of the year but it would have taken a Christmas miracle to bring us back from a 4-0 deficit against Brighton in the following fixture. We analyse both games and take a look at our ever-evolving crisis and the prospect of a challenging Ja...

Spurs string together back-to-back wins for the first since October and all is well again with the world - almost. A full Plus Dave team brings you its analysis this week, looking at the slightly less convincing acquisition of 3 points this time around at the cost of yet more suspensions. We look over the 2-0 win at Forest with a spotlight on Dejan Kulusevski and another on Yves Bissouma - for dif...

We are so back! Tottenham come away with an impressive win and an even more impressive performance against highly-fancied Newcastle (albeit a tired and depleted version) to end our run of 5 games without a win. With no Elio this week, a returning Dags is joined by Socs and Dave to discuss, arguably, our best outing of the season so far (as well as a slightly less exciting match against West Ham a...

With Dags off sunning himself in Barbados, Elio takes over as host for the post-match analysis of Spurs' death-defying draw at the Etihad against last year's treble winners, Manchester City. As well as taking a few moments to look at the controversial refereeing decision at the end, and just how little Socs actually cares after a long history of Pedro Mendes and Lasagne-Gates in his Spurs watching...

Spurs lose again but at least this time we lose with style. Join an unusually chirpy 3-man team, given the circumstances, this week as we discuss what is our third defeat in a row and quite possibly the third of four with Man City looming. Elio takes a week off but was still kind enough to send in a few clips of his thoughts on Sunday's loss, while Dags, Socs and Dave discuss a match that many fee...

This week the Plus Dave welcomes an extra special guest - a familiar voice to some of you no doubt, and one of the founding fathers of Spurs podcasting - host of the excellent The Extra Inch Spurs podcast and huge inspiration for the PDP - Chris 'Windy' Miller. Windy joins Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave in a fully loaded team tasked with keeping you all entertained this international break. In this spe...

Plus Dave returns for a snappy one this week as Elio spends a week on the sidelines - there's only so much we can fill in for his monologues after all! Join Dags, Socs and Dave as we look back on a tough late defeat to Wolves making it back-to-back losses to bring the Postecoglou honeymoon to a firm end. We discuss the evident impact of our injury/suspension crisis and how that might affect us acr...

Our dream start has hit a major bump in the road. After flying out the blocks against Chelsea, the match fell apart in bizarre and spectacular fashion in an eventual 4-1 home defeat to our old boss that leaves us missing 4 key players for varying lengths of time through suspension and injury. Through all this though, there remains a sense of positivity and pride in the way we still went for it and...

Another week, another win as Spurs find themselves (temporarily at least) 5 points clear at the top, but still out on their own at the top of the league, 10 games in. We're still not getting ahead of ourselves though, as we take it one game at a time... This week it's Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park who did their best to make the soaring Spurs look fairly average for large parts of the 90 minutes...

This week's episode is brought to you by Dags and Socs as Dave gets a well-earned rest ahead of Palace and Elio serves a one week suspension for allegations of corruption against the Premier League. Join our streamlined team as we take a measured and sensible look back at the latest triumphant performance by the Champions-elect, Tottenham Hotspur as they go marching on towards May with one hand on...

Hello listener, are you missing Premier League football? Is there a void in your heart that can only be filled by the return of Angeball? Come and have a taste of the next best thing - a group therapy session with 3 like-minded sufferers of Spurs withdrawal (and a Leeds fan called Dave) here to talk about the mighty Tottenham Hotspur and their 8-game-old charge for the title. With only the slighte...

The Spurs go marching on! Once again we didn't make it easy for ourselves but the important thing is we got the win, we got the three points and it's enough to sail off into the international break top of the league as we pray for most of our players to make it back in one piece. Dave takes the week off as, presumably, Spurs winning repeatedly is starting to bore him - leaving Dags, Elio and Socs...

What's that? You want more last minute drama? More wins? More VAR controversy? More cards, more goals and more crying opposition fans? Well you, listener, are in luck. Spurs are anything but boring right now as we manage to secure a massive 3 points in a home match against 9-man Liverpool thanks to the help of some lovely Angeball (and our own 12th man in Stockley Park). Some say Liverpool had thi...

Spurs survive a trip to the Emirates! Not only do they survive, but they come out with their heads held high, leaving many of us a renewed sense of optimism for the season ahead. To help us discuss the match and the efforts of Ange's young superstars this week is a star of the present and future - podcasting prodigy and FCA-award nominee Harry Scarfe. Harry makes his Plus Dave debut in a huge week...

Well Spurs, you sure know how to keep things interesting! We're back this week with a (relatively) regular episode to discuss a thoroughly irregular ending to our home game against Sheffield Utd - adding to our illustrious trophy cabinet with a new record for the latest comeback in Premier League history (a record we took from ourselves, of course) Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave discuss the drama and e...
