Hello everyone and welcome to The View from the Lane, this Hot and Oscar podcast from The Athletic.

I'm Danny Kelly, joined today by The Athletic Charlie Eccleshare and Jack Pitt Brook.

We have to start with the game against Moreorkham on Sunday, particularly problematic for me because

I would have entirely deserved but somehow I suppose you could say they turned it around against Morkham.

That can't be the right word.

Charlie, let's start with a quick recap of the actual game against Mighty Morkham.

A stirring afternoon at the stirring comeback at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

two or three no win.

Obviously, that was a ludicrous thing to say.

You know, they're 21st in League 1.

Yeah, clearly that was always going to be a massive challenge at home for this Spurs V team.

I mean, so yeah, Spurs were pretty sluggish.
