Match Spam vs Thee Mighty Tottenham Hotspur

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Toby had an uncharacteristic game, with the yellow card, which is rare and giving the ball away in the box, not to detract from a fine season.

West Ham may have ended our title hope, yes let that sink in, this season where Chelsea, City, United and Liverpool had strengthen their squads considerably, we got in to a title race where we, on paper, had no chance o being in that race, most of us would have delightedly taken a top 4 place. I accept that we're very likely out of the running and tonight we had some rare lapses, I think on balance deserved to lose but I can't feel too angry, the chance of a 4 point swing before the game was minimal and that still remains.

West Ham will enjoy their win, but ultimately, their fans will have to travel a soulless bowl on the outskirts of a shopping centre, they will have to endure being run by a set of chairmen who have a twitter presence similar to that of Donald Trump and they will still be wondering to themselves, had that team out there tonight put in the same level as the rest of the season they might not have been so wretchedly disappointing.

Not a great night but let's keep some context here..
 
Kane & Dele hardy got a touch all game, Poch need to see that and make changes to formation/positions earlier
son was not at the races most of the game
but when you look at the bench what do we have to bring on ?
that £70M wasted lasted summer on GKN, Janssen, Sissoko has hurt us in the matches we needed to change.
we need that older player who can come on calm it down and change a game, who that is ? I don't know

Rachel Riley?
 
Have to keep our heads up and put in a huge performance in the final game at the lane. Even if Chelsea clinch it by then It is not just tonight that's cost us. It's our away form all year. We rarely beat West ham away and this was always going to be a very difficult game. Against a team that has nothing to play for. I do think it was a very risky decision to play walker if there was the slightest doubt over his focus. Maybe it wouldn't have affected the overall performance of the team but the fact that he had a bad game says it all.
 
Are you saying I'm not Spurs mate ? Are you seriously questioning my allegiance. I'm fucking distraught at tonight's result you piece of fucking shit.


Of course you are

Keep telling yourself that

I just don't believe you

"Piece of fucking shit"
Lovely

Can't compete with an intellect like that
:avbhumph:
 
The thing with West Ham is that losing to them is so annoying because they're shit. Nothing to do with rivalry for me, similar to Leicester in that respect.

When they sing "It's happening again" they're referring to them finishing below us, right? :dierno:

You may be right but a right back does not stop you from scoring goals.
 
It really wasn't that bad a performance from us and some of the melting I am reading is really worrisome. This season has turned one or two folks here into entitled plastics. We were bashing them towards they end. This is their cup final. Their North London Derby, and still they had to park the bus and scrape it by a one goal win. My only complaint is that season after season we don't seem to take their desperation to win as seriously as we should.

No let's take a step back. This is a rare loss for us. In contrast this is the second win in 12 games. 12 games. We are not mathematically out of the title race and, frankly, we were always on the back foot anyway where Chelsea is concerned.

The only thing I demand is that the players respond and don't give up the ghost like last year. If they don't give up the ghost then I am entirely satisfied with, and proud of, our efforts this season.
it was a shite performance, what game were you watching.
