  • Dream Team

    I always find myself looking forward to each new episode of The View From The Lane. No matter how the season is going, tuning in feels like a bit of therapy — a chance to reset, reflect, and even laugh through the ups and downs. This season hasn’t exactly been the easiest to enjoy, but somehow you all manage to bring perspective, humour, and genuine insight that turns it around every time. That’s a real credit to you and the whole team.

    There’s a warmth and honesty to the podcast that makes it ... more

  • A must listen…for Gooners

    This is a comedy podcast running a tight 40 minutes where a group of middle aged men discuss how their lives are cursed supporting Spurs. Occasionally hilarious and delusional, it is also touching and mournful. In short, a must listen for all gooners whenever Spurs lose…which is often.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Home woes continue against Villa
Q: Which Monaco players pose the biggest threat when they're in form?
Ansu Fati stands out as a key attacking threat alongside Akliush, with Fati showing signs of recapturing Barcelona-era form. In midfield, the absence of Zacharia and Kamara makes Monaco feel lightweight centrally, so Spurs should target those spaces.
Home woes continue against Villa
Q: Tell us about Monaco's current form and what Spurs should expect in the Champions League game.
Monaco have had a turbulent season with a coaching change and a long injury list, but they showed resilience in Europe, including a late goal against City in a recent home result. Spurs should look to exploit wide areas and space behind wing-backs, while being mindful that Monaco can still hurt them on counter-attacks if Spurs are not compact.
The Thomas Frank months + Did we give him an easy ride?
Q: How did player discipline issues impact Thomas Frank's effectiveness?
It seems that Frank struggled to manage discipline consistently, leading to culture issues within the squad and impacting performance.
The Thomas Frank months + Did we give him an easy ride?
Q: What do you think went wrong for Thomas Frank?
The consensus seems to be that he never had the buy-in from players or fans, leading to a lack of trust and authority in his approach.
Should Thomas Frank be sacked? + Seb Stafford-Bloor on Dortmund
Q: How does this work?
The team could either face another booing atmosphere with poor performance or perform well and possibly recover from recent losses.
