Bale backs Spurs for title
Gareth Bale firmly believes that Tottenham are capable of winning their first league championship in half a century this year.
The Welshman notched his 10th goal of the season on Tuesday to seal the 2-0 win over Newcastle which moved Spurs ahead of local rivals Chelsea into fourth position.
The north Londoners will remain there if Chelsea continue their dismal run of form by failing to beat Bolton at Stamford Bridge tonight.
Despite being 33-1 outsiders, Spurs boss Harry Redknapp believes his side can upset the odds and claim their first league title since the 1960-61 season.
"There's no reason why we can't push for the title," declared Bale. "I think as we've seen, with 10 men we're fully confident. We attack teams all the time and we're up in the mix. Everyone fights for each other on the pitch.
"We are all close and get on with each other. That shows on the pitch and that's why we're getting results."
