- 2008, Adam Corres, Raffles and the Match-Fixing Syndicate (Grosvenor House Publishing, first hardback edition), page 20:
- I remember this all took place on a Tuesday; the day of the great god 'Tue'. Honestly, that's who it's named after. If you don't believe me, go look it up. I have no idea what it was that Tue did exactly, but I'd say he or she was pretty lucky […]
- 1995, Miles Jebb, Suffolk, page 193:

- "If he can't mention Tue, Woden, Thor and Frig, how is he going to pronounce the days of the week?"
