The Fighting Cock

Tottenham Hotspur FC Podcast, Website & Fanzine. It's not a six year old bottle of Kentucky Bourbon whiskey. It's not an adult pay-site for men. Love the Shirt.

And it's nothing Peta should be worried about. The Fighting Cock is a Tottenham Hotspur podcast, website & fanzine. It plays out in pubs and cafes all over the country no matter the club you follow. It's as much about football as celebrating a goal, or singing your heart out in the stands. Talking about football is fulfilling, it eases the pain of a heart wrenching defeat and makes reliving past g

lories that extra bit special when shared. Recording that, releasing it on the internet and allowing (hopefully) thousands of fellow yids to listen in...well it seemed like an excellent thing to do. It's not original, but done right it can be genuinely unique. Or at the very least different from what's out there right now. We hope to bring truly genuine opinion on all matters Spurs and that you enjoy our efforts.

🐓 The optimism around Tottenham is unlike anything we've felt for years... but should we actually believe it? This week the lads discuss Xavi Simons' brilliant interview, why everyone at Spurs suddenly seems to be talking about winning titles, and whether Roberto De Zerbi is changing the mentality of the entire football club. We also get into Romero's expected departure, the excitement around Luca Williams-Barnett, the transfer strategy, Savinho, youth sales, and ask the big question: if the window closed today, where would this Spurs side actually finish? Plus there's a Lewis Holtby quiz, plenty of Reddit questions, and the usual descent into absolute nonsense.

S16E01 - England Are Out… Where Will Tottenham Finish This Season?

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 We're looking ahead to the new Premier League season and asking the biggest question of all: can Tottenham genuinely challenge for the title under Roberto De Zerbi? We break down the current squad, debate whether Morgan Gibbs-White is the missing piece, discuss Romero's future, the need for another striker and winger, and whether Spurs should keep spending while the opportunity is there. Plus, we talk Djed Spence's incredible rise, who should captain the club next season, and what counts as a successful campaign after such an ambitious summer.

S15E95 - England Are Out… Now Let’s Win the League

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 England's World Cup dream is over, so naturally we've turned our attention back to Tottenham. We react to England's semi-final defeat, discuss whether Jed Spence has played his way into De Zerbi's plans, ask if it's finally time to move on from Cristian Romero and pick through the latest transfer whispers surrounding Savinho, Vuskovic and more. Ricky checks in with his mysterious ITKs, we wonder what happened to tapping up rules, and somehow end up talking about seagulls delivering transfer documents, fly zappers and whether Tottenham fans are emotionally indestructible.

S15E93 - Leao, Lies & The Lewis Family: Spurs Have Changed

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 45 minutes of transfer madness before we answer a single question. We discuss whether Tottenham have fundamentally changed under the Lewis family, the arrivals of Tonali and Fernandes, why the club's recruitment suddenly feels different, and whether Rafa Leão is worth the gamble. We also dive into Bergvall's development, Ricky's increasingly suspicious ITK credentials, why rival fans seem obsessed with Spurs, and the strange psychology of the summer transfer window. Plus Cornettos, Daniel Levy conspiracy theories, and the usual nonsense.

S15E92 - FOOD CHAIN

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 Tottenham are spending big and the rest of football can't seem to cope.

Flav and Ricky react to the arrivals of Tonali and Mateus Fernandes, discuss why rival fans are so rattled by Spurs' ambition, and explain why this transfer window feels completely different to anything we've experienced before.

They also debate whether we've really overpaid, what the ownership change has already meant for the club, why De Zerbi is being backed like no Spurs manager before him, the sale of Vuskovic, more transfer targets still to come, Kulusevski's recovery, listener questions, and whether it's finally time to dream a little bigger.

S15E91 - Building For The Short Term

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 We discuss the latest around Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes, whether Spurs can genuinely land both players, and why fans should be careful not to get swept away by every rumour that appears online.

We also look at Antonín Kinsky's remarkable turnaround, Luka Vušković's uncertain future, the role Johan Lange deserves to play in this summer's recruitment and whether Tottenham should cash in on young talent to fund an even bigger rebuild.

S15E90 - You Should’ve Relegated Us

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 We answer your questions as the summer transfer window goes into overdrive. We chat about Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali, Savinho and what Tottenham's aggressive approach says about the club's ambitions. We also debate whether Lucas Bergvall should stay or go, discuss Cristian Romero's future, look at whether Spurs can genuinely push for the top four, and somehow end up talking about Scotland, Tyson, San Francisco, Saily, freezing baths and why Jon thinks the Premier League should've relegated us while they had the chance. It's a proper off-season Q&A, in other words.

S15E88 - The Vuskovic Conundrum

👉 https://podfollow.com/the-fighting-cock 👈 FOLLOW on iTunes or Spotify

🐓 We jumped on for an impromptu pod after reports emerged that Brighton want Luka Vuskovic. We discuss why the move might make sense for everyone involved, whether De Zerbi is prioritising ready-made players over prospects, and what it says about the way Tottenham are operating this summer.

We also chat about the pursuit of Van Hecke and Verbruggen, Pedro Porro's future, James Maddison's leadership credentials, and why, despite finishing 17th, there's a growing feeling that Spurs are finally moving in the right direction.

Plus, plenty of nonsense along the way.
