Our final pre-season friendly is tomorrow in Oslo against Serie A’s Inter Milan. The Italian giants tried for some banter with the official account earlier this week when their official page asked ours if we’re ready for the match.
Unfortunately, after a pretty good Twitter run, the Spurs Official account came up dry on this one:
We are ready! We've had some good games against each other in the past and another is in store on Friday! #COYS https://t.co/WTxQmsE6kc

Knowing the Hoddle crew, I thought some of you might have better responses involving things like “taxi for Maicon,” “Peter Crouch just scored again,” etc. etc. So fix this huge missed opportunity for @SpursOfficial. Also—entertain me. Please. It’s been a long week. I could use the laughs. :)
