Tuesday Morning Hoddle Of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur News And Links For July 17, 2012

Happy Tuesday, Spursland! The Dark Knight Rises opens in a few days and looks to be easily the biggest and perhaps best movie of the summer (although Moonrise Kingdom may have something to say about that). Now thanks to the love that many, if not most people have for the Batman franchise, and thanks to the latest series of movies by Christopher Nolan and Heath Ledger's turn as the Joker, this latest edition of the series is on the tip of everyone's tongue this week. So I must ask the question that has been kicking around my brain all day, which member of the Tottenham organization is Batman?

And now the "news"
