Burnley: missed chance or gritty point? Either way, we didn’t end their miserable run, so… progress? We dig into the numbers (not boringly, promise) and explore whether our best attackers are also our biggest problem. Plus: O...

We're thrilled to welcome Mike Leigh from the brilliant Spurs Show podcast to Nice One Cyril. He and Simon Lipson discuss: - The Dortmund miracle - Muani downing tools - Thomas Frank's gabbling - Transfers - Burnley And lots ...

Home defeat to that useless lot. Frank said we were “close to something very good.” Romero called it “a disaster.” One of them is right. We cover baffling tactics, Tel hooked and dumped from the Champions League squad again, ...

Kev and Simon chat about Gallagher, sift through the latest transfer noise, the club’s ever-expanding executive org chart, and ask why Ange’s name still won’t go away. Also, who gives a toss about Gary of Harlow's wet dream S...

Another home defeat, another first half we’d all like to forget. But...a much better second half against a good Villa team, which raises an awkward question: if we’re happy to blame Thomas Frank when it’s bad, do we give him ...

Simon and Kevin discuss: Another horrible capitulation to Bournemouth , Cupgate, players confronting the fans and the captain aiming a broadside at the hierarchy. Thomas continues to struggle - what's he trying to do? Do we s...

We’re dissecting the Jekyll & Hyde draw with Sunderland —from a decent first half to a second-half retreat so deep we nearly ended up in the stand. Inside the episode: Tactical Hostages: Why does Thomas Frank treat a 1-0 lead...

Kevin and Simon discuss our sparkling performance against Brentford. Is Thomas Frank just trying not to lose? Will that save his job? Bilbao hero Brennan Johnson is on his way? Was he good enough? Did we play him out of posit...

* The away league Spurs win away while playing...not very well. We talk Palace, praise Danso and Archie, worry about Porro, and ask how a team can be top of the away table yet so dreadful at home. Frank gets pelters for dimin...

In this episode of Nice One Cyril , Simon Lipson and Kevin Acott dive into the madness of the ITK economy (Fabrizio says…what?), ask what “Big Club” actually means and whether Spurs really count, and confess whether we’ve eve...

Two red cards, a rogue referee and just enough fight to leave us feeling… optimistic? We talk Thomas's tactics before and after the chaos, Kudus hitting the wall, Vand de Ven breaking things and Romero being Romero. There’s a...

No matches this week, no defeats — which already feels like progress. In this Extra Time edition, Simon Lipson and Kevin Acott wander off the touchline and into the Spurs psyche. The moments you knew were coming and the ones ...

In this episode of Nice One Cyril , Simon, Julie and Dave pick through a thoroughly deflating defeat at Nottingham Forest — just when Spurs looked like they might be improving. We ask what went wrong, whether Vicario’s form (...

We look back at the Sparta Prague game and look ahead to Forest. Plus: what are the essential items you have to take to every match at the Lane, Spurs players who couldn't trap a ball - so many - and the unwritten rules of be...

This week on Nice One Cyril we somehow manage to cover both Spurs’ mini-resurrection and the end of civilisation as we know it. We break down the Brentford win — Xavi running the show, Archie Grey looking the part, actual ene...

Dave's internet went to hell, so it's just Simon prattling on for 10 minutes about our not too bad performance against Newcastle, performative footballers, booing our own players and pondering whether football is fun any more...

Spurs lose the “worst away team vs worst home team” showdown, and the pod is in full post-Fulham therapy mode. We dig into the baffling Bergvall bollockings, and the booing of Vicario — plus Thomas Frank’s weekly insistence t...

Welcome to Nice One Cyril: Extra Time — the shorter, sillier mid-week top-up pod you didn’t ask for. Less tactics, more nonsense. Minor rage, daft joy, questionable optimism, mushy peas, dirty spoons, Crooks & Archibald. If t...

Another week, another Spurs performance so limp it should come with a doctor's note. Simon Lipson, Julie Welch, Lee Brown and Barry Graham pick over the Arsenal debacle — no plan, no punch, no pulse — and ask whether the play...

It’s North London Derby week when stomachs churn and hope and dread go head to head. The crew dive head-first into all things Spurs vs Arsenal. With injuries stacking up (ours, obviously), tactics in flux and Arsenal sitting ...

In this episode of Nice One Cyril, Simon Lipson, Julie Welch, Kev Acott and Dave Bradshaw relive the joy, despair and sheer madness of that Man U match. Spursiness in all its glory. We ask whether Richy flashing his knockers ...

It’s been another very Spursy week — defeat to Villa, a dreadful draw in Monaco and a comfortable(ish) win over Everton. Simon Lipson, Julie Welch, Kevin Acott and Lee Brown ask the big questions: Was Monaco the most exhausti...

In this week’s Nice One Cyril, Simon Lipson, Julie Welch and Kevin Acott pick over another familiar story — Spurs losing at home. Vicario’s nerves, Odobert’s vanishing act, and Tel’s growing pains all come under the microscop...

This week on Nice One Cyril, Simon, Julie, Kev and Dave tackle the £100 million cash injection from the Lewis family — and try to work out whether it means new signings or, finally, the cheese room. We chat international duty...
