Fathers’ feud echoes as sons meet for final chapterRehydration clause looms over high-stakes rematchReach out to Bryan via Bluesky or emailTorrential rain lashed across north London yesterday and the mood tonight at the Tottenham Hotspur would have been very different if we had to face more of the same.

After spying Tom Box at a punk gig, Kate Logan made a Dalek poster to capture his attentionFind more stories from the moment I knew seriesLong before we’d met, I had heard a lot about a guy called Tom Box. I knew he was an Australian living in the South Island of New Zealand. I was in Wellington, and there’d been a few occasions when I’d travelled to the South Island for raves or anarchist conferences where some of the folks had gone to Tom’s place – but I splintered off somewhere else.Then one day, in 2007, I was at a punk gig when a mutual friend said, “Oh, do you know Tom Box?
