Summary
Donny is in charge on today’s Ramble and he’s plotting some new surgery to extend his collarbones. He might also add in a few extra ribs while he's at it.
Pete’s cosmetic procedures aside, Luke and David join him to explain why there is no saving Tottenham under Thomas Frank. Plus, Leeds and Newcastle played out a barn burner that Keggy would be proud of.
