The entire Tottenham family mourns the loss of one of our own, broadcasting legend Danny Kelly. Our thoughts and love are with his family and friends at this incredibly sad time. Rest in peace, Danny 🤍
We are heartbroken to share that our much-loved friend and colleague Danny Kelly has died, aged 69. A cherished part of talkSPORT for so many years, Danny brought extraordinary wit, warmth and knowledge to our airwaves. His passion for football, music and life was infectious, and his kindness touched everyone around him. “I love football, Stan. I love it.” We loved you, Danny. We’ll miss you dearly. Our thoughts are with Danny’s family, friends and everyone who loved listening to him.

What an honour and a privilege to spend so much time in conversation (sometimes about Spurs) with Danny Kelly. If you don't learn from someone like him you won't ever learn anything. Can't believe I'll never have the pleasure again. Heartbroken.

In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek, a white man in Crawfordville. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter has been elected governor of Georgia. ajc.com/politics/2026/11/kei…

Just heard on CNN that @ossoff, safely cruising to re-election in what was originally thought to be a vulnerable senate seat in Georgia, was endorsed by many Republican mayors because his constituent service work was so good. Imagine living in a reality where “constituent services” was the driving issue behind the electing of members of Congress. Would probably be a good sign.

Congratulations to Governor-elect @KeishaforGA on making history tonight. Georgians spoke clearly for a brighter direction for our state. Thank you to every organizer and volunteer who made sure those voices were heard. Let’s get to work.

Where do I begin? That was an evening I'll never forget. It’s an incredible honour to receive the Ballon d’Or award after a year full of goals, trophies and special milestones. Thank you to all the staff and my teammates at @england and @fcbayern, as well as family, friends and everyone who’s supported me – this wouldn’t be possible without you all. Thank you to everyone who has sent a kind message, social media post - I appreciate every single one of them. This will live long in the memory. 🙌🏆❤️

Harry Kane, the 2026 Ballon d'Or winner, reserved a section of his speech for Tottenham Hotspur, his former club. The English striker spent more than a decade of his career in north London, and established himself as one of the best players of his generation, before moving to Bayern Munich.
