WHILE the . . emergence of such young talent as Ledley King and Simon Davies has been a feature of Spurs’ season so far, i t is the “golden oldies” which provide the main threat to Rovers on Sunday. The likes of Les


Ferdinand (35);Teddy Sheringham, Gus Poyet (both 34) and , Christian Ziege (30) have turned


- Tottenham into a more potent force. Although they are .

nothing more than also- rans in the Premiership, there has definitely been progress at White Hart Lane since the return of prodigal son Glenn Hoddle in April last year. And the 30-


somethings have had a


big hand in moving the club forward. Hoddle raved about

OUR Computers for Schools promotion has reaped rew­ ards for pupils in the Ribble

having earned a moral victory over Argentina at the Millennium Stadium last week, Rovers will hope that is another good omen for the club.
