Home and Away World Cup Special Episode 1

Episode 102

Tuesday, June 9, 2026 • Duration 46:58

It’s World Cup time — and Tottenham – Home and Away is going international.

In this first World Cup Special, Graeme and Glen are joined by returning guest Hamish from New Zealand to look ahead to the opening stages of the tournament, the Spurs players involved, and the stories already dominating the build-up.

We discuss the viral rise of New Zealand defender Tim Payne, who went from a few thousand social media followers to millions almost overnight, and Hamish gives us the local Kiwi view — including a rather memorable golf cart story.

We also look at the less glamorous side of this World Cup: visa issues, referees and players being detained or turned away, fans having travel problems, huge ticket prices, and the growing sense that the tournament is being overshadowed by politics, FIFA, Trump, and Infantino before a ball has even been kicked.

Then we get into the football: England’s chances under Thomas Tuchel, Harry Kane looking sharp, Jed Spence’s assist, New Zealand’s low block, the opening fixtures, and which Spurs players we’ll be watching — including Son, Bentancur, Sarr, Romero, Danso, Van de Ven, Porro, Bergvall, Vuskovic, Jed Spence and new signing Andy Robertson.

We also share our earliest World Cup memories, from Argentina 1978 and Italia 90 to France 98 and Brazil 2014, before making our tournament predictions: winners, dark horses and surprise packages.

Come on England — and come on you Spurs.

Tottenham - Home and Away Episode 101

Episode 101

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 52:52

We can finally breathe.

In this episode of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen are joined by returning guests from across the world to review the end of a painful Tottenham season — one that somehow ended with Spurs surviving and Arsenal losing on penalties.

There is no celebration here, just relief. We look back on the highs, lows and absolute chaos of the season: the moments that gave us hope, the games that made us fear relegation was inevitable, the impact of Roberto De Zerbi, Kinsky’s redemption, Maddison’s return, Xavi Simons’ goal against Brighton, and the performances that finally dragged Spurs over the line.

We also discuss the bigger issues at the club: failed recruitment, poor squad planning, injuries, the collapse in home form, Vicario vs Kinsky, whether Thomas Frank was exposed by leaving Brentford, and why Spurs must learn from clubs like Brighton, Bournemouth and Brentford rather than just trying to poach their managers.

To close the season, we ask the group to sum up Tottenham’s year as a film, TV show or famous person — with answers ranging from The Great Escape to Apocalypse Now.

Thanks to everyone who has listened, watched, subscribed, joined the WhatsApp community, or been part of the podcast during a brutal season. We survived. Now the rebuild has to begin.

Come on you Spurs.

Tottenham - Home and Away Episode 100

Episode 100

Saturday, May 23, 2026 • Duration 42:01

It all comes down to the final day.

In Episode 100 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the Chelsea defeat and preview the huge winner-takes-all final home game against Everton, with Spurs and West Ham both fighting to avoid relegation.

We discuss the frustration of another Stamford Bridge defeat, the decisions that went against Spurs, whether Mathys Tel, James Maddison and Dominic Solanke should start, and why Roberto De Zerbi has been dragged into talking about Cristian Romero when the focus should be on the biggest Spurs match in a generation.

Then we look ahead to Sunday. Spurs only go down if they lose and West Ham win — but with this team, nothing feels simple. Can Spurs get the draw they need? Will the crowd be able to lift the players without adding pressure? And if survival is secured, should attention immediately turn to the board, the owners, and the people responsible for this mess?

For Episode 100, we also take a short trip down memory lane with two Spurs legends from the 100-goal club: Glenn Hoddle and Jermain Defoe. We talk Hoddle’s genius, his goals, his style, his coaching career, and Glen’s personal story of meeting him as a child, before moving on to Defoe’s finishing, his two spells at Spurs, and why he remains such a loved figure at the club.

Thanks to everyone who has listened, watched, subscribed, joined the WhatsApp community, or been part of the podcast so far. Whatever happens next, we’ll keep talking Spurs. Come on you Spurs.

Tottenham - Home and Away Episode 99

Episode 99

Sunday, May 17, 2026 • Duration 33:25

West Ham blinked. Now Spurs have to decide whether they are brave enough to finish the job.

In Episode 99 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen react to the 1-1 draw with Leeds, the huge impact of West Ham’s defeat, and preview Tuesday night’s massive trip to Stamford Bridge.

We discuss whether the Leeds result was a good point or a missed opportunity, Mathys Tel’s brilliant goal and costly penalty mistake, the latest VAR frustrations, Spurs’ continued home struggles, and why De Zerbi’s unbeaten run still represents real progress.

Then we look ahead to Chelsea. Can Spurs get the point they need to all but secure Premier League survival? Is Stamford Bridge the perfect place to finish the job, or the worst possible venue given Spurs’ history there? We also discuss Kinsky’s form, Maddison’s possible role, Solanke’s return, Romero’s future, and why survival must be treated as a relief — not an achievement.

There’s also a bigger discussion on what must change at Tottenham this summer: ownership, leadership, football people, recruitment, Johan Lange, Sebastian Kehl, squad rebuilds, youth loans, Mikey Moore, and why Spurs cannot afford to ever be in this position again.

Episode 98

Friday, May 8, 2026 • Duration 40:27

Spurs have won back-to-back league games. Yes, really.

In this episode of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the huge away win at Aston Villa and ask whether Roberto De Zerbi has finally found the missing belief in this Tottenham squad.

We discuss a performance that felt better than the 2-1 scoreline, the intensity from the first whistle, the impact of Conor Gallagher, João Palhinha, Pedro Porro, Richarlison, Kolo Muani and Mathys Tel, and why De Zerbi’s “no more pity party” mentality may be exactly what these players needed.

We also preview Monday night’s home match against Leeds. Can Spurs carry the same intensity into a game where expectation will be higher? Will the home crowd help or add pressure? Should Kinsky keep his place? Could Maddison get minutes? And can Spurs take another huge step towards Premier League survival?

There’s also chat about Archie Gray’s future role, Spurs’ transfer needs, Johan Lange, Sebastian Kehl, possible summer targets, West Ham, Arsenal, Chelsea, the Australia pre-season tour, Spurs youngsters, and a World Cup rant for good measure.

Saturday, May 2, 2026 • Duration 55:13

In this episode of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme, Glen and special guest Richard Stafford (Kiwi Spurs) break down Spurs’ narrow win over Wolves and look ahead to a huge clash against Aston Villa.

It wasn’t pretty… but it was a win. The panel discuss whether that result could be a turning point, or just papering over deeper issues in the squad.

We also dive into:

The brutal reality of a potential Championship season
Why Spurs struggle against “ugly football” teams
Injury chaos (again…) and what it means for the run-in
Key performers like Bentancur and Kinski stepping up
The relegation battle… and why Nottingham Forest might still be dragged into it

Plus, a full preview of the Villa game and predictions as Spurs fight to stay in the Premier League.

Can Spurs build momentum… or are we still relying on others?

Tottenham - Home and Away Episode 96

Episode 95

Monday, April 27, 2026 • Duration 55:08

In Episode 96 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme is joined by returning guest Ben McFadyean, UK-based German football writer and host of the Borussia Dortmund Fan Club London podcast, to discuss the reports linking Sebastian Kehl with the Tottenham director of football role.

Ben McFadyean is a UK-based German football writer (Four Four Two, World Soccer Magazine, Gulf News, Ruhr24, Ruhrnachrichten) and host of the Borussia Dortmund Fan Club London, podcast.

The BVB podcast can be found at: McFadyean.podbean.com

Ben gives us the Dortmund view on Kehl: his reputation as “Captain Marvel”, his leadership as a player, his time working under Michael Zorc, the strengths and concerns from his sporting director spell, and why some Dortmund fans may feel relief at his departure.

We also look at whether Kehl would be the right fit for Spurs at this exact moment. With Tottenham facing either a desperate Premier League rebuild or the possibility of relegation, this could be one of the most important football appointments the club has made in years.

Is Kehl a steady hand, or another gamble? Does Spurs need Bundesliga recruitment knowledge, or a more experienced operator with Championship-level experience? And has the club lost its football identity under years of business-first decision-making?

A big discussion on recruitment, culture, leadership, relegation, squad rebuilds, Daniel Levy’s legacy, De Zerbi, Johan Lange, Dortmund, and what Spurs must become next.

Tottenham - Home and Away episode 95

Episode 94

Friday, April 24, 2026 • Duration 32:34

Spurs showed signs of life against Brighton — but another late goal conceded left us with that familiar gut-punch feeling.

In Episode 95 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the 2-2 draw with Brighton, ask whether Xavi Simons has finally arrived in a Spurs shirt, and debate whether Roberto De Zerbi is the right manager at the wrong time.

We also preview the huge away match against Wolves. With five games left, Spurs badly need points, performances are no longer enough, and the relegation fight is very real. Can we finally end the winless run? Does De Zerbi stick with the Brighton team? Should Bergvall start? And is Wolves now simply a must-win?

We also discuss the wider survival picture, West Ham, Chelsea, Villa, Everton, the leadership issues in the squad, Cristian Romero, online abuse aimed at Kevin Danso, and the possible arrival of Sebastian Kehl as sporting director.
