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?
