Adebayor booing the highlight as season fizzes out

WE’VE grown accustomed to the shoe being on the other foot entering the last few furlongs of previous campaigns, hoping in vain for a favour from the enemy.

But with all prospects of silverware ebbing away on the back of a heartless Spurs performance, that’s failed to even ruffle the feathers of one of our Premier League rivals.

I can’t remember the last time the Lilywhites still had something to play for at this late stage. With them needing a win from us on Saturday, about the only consolation from a tedious goalless draw against Man City, was the knowledge that my Spurs pals were, for once, experiencing the sour taste of just such a disappointment.
