The Hoddle of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur news and links for Wednesday, October 29

We’re nine games into the Premier League season, two games into the Champions League campaign and one Doncaster Rovers game in, yet we’re still without a Tottenham Hotspur third-kit signing.

I have two questions:

Why?

When?

I’m not sure the answer to either of those questions. I do remember that Tottenham quietly released the third kit (wasn’t the discourse around this because of transfer window activity?). Are Spurs ashamed of the kit? And if so, why?

I really like this year’s third kit too. The yellow is awesome, we’ve got the blue AIA, the crest on the torso. But most of all I like the throwback Spurs crest that sits on the centre of the chest.

And I think we deserve to see that. I believe Spurs Women have worn this kit, but the men haven’t yet. I’m eagerly awaiting the day when Spurs finally release it into the wild.
