argh Bringing back memories of Gerry Francis and getting spanked 7-1 away to Newcastle over the Christmas period.
I fucking love the Poch era.
Personally I think it’s ok to call a spade a spade.
Barca was immense.....Everton was immense.....scum away was immense....
So what?
That means today wasn’t a shit in your bed piece of fucking garbage match?
No, it doesn’t I’m afraid.
We’ve been here before, Leicester WHL, Battle of the Bridge, scum at WHL 2-2, West Ham.
Key games year after year.
Today we could have gone 3pts behind Liverpool by beating some champo mid table team.
And what do we do? Lose our bollocks at 1-0 up. Again. Gift Liverpool a relaxing afternoon down the spa, knowing allllllll the pressure was off now.
5 steps forward, then kick ourselves in the face. Every fucking season.
We need to turn that corner. The excuses are running out.
No one is demanding the PL Title.
What I’m demanding is a change in our mentality for once, to match the managers big fucking words. Talk is cheap.
Sick of falling at the first hurdle every time a game pops up that you genuinely think “win this and who knows”.

Do you realise what a Cunt you are making of yourself and your pointless little yo-yo club? you didn't come on here when we beat you so stop acting like a bell-end.
Enjoy staying up. There is nothing else
For the youngsters. .... let's not forget ....
Just 20 years ago, when I was 32, we finished 11th on 47 points, -3 GD ... with ex gooner George Graham as manager. Though we did win the league cup.
The sad thing was at the time that was seen as a good season.
It was....
To be honest mate i go on all forums before and after games, I registered this time due to the level of adverts you get if you don't register on this site. Obviously I'm not going to be as keen to read everyword when we have lost as much as when we have won... I'm just genuinely surprised how angry some of you are at getting rolled over by us, we aren't brilliant we lost at Cardiff and home to Huddersfield (I went on their forum too and to the games) I'm just astonished at how angry some of you are at one blip in the road, to a team that have been shown to turn up with some good results when otherwise your seasons been on fire. On most other forums debate is welcomed without being called a cunt, if you call people cunts then they are probably going to respond like one, if you don't want guests to comment and have discussion then don't allow us to register
Oh here we go.......Once upon a time we was shit for a few years, so now we should just be thankful....
Is it any wonder we keep coming up short?
Little further back under Ossie in 1994 we got our first league point of the year on 2nd March and first league win on 26 March.
1 January 1994 Coventry City H 1–2 Caskey
3 January 1994 Sheffield Wednesday A 0–1
15 January 1994 Manchester United H 0–1
22 January 1994 Swindon Town A 1–2 Barmby
5 February 1994 Sheffield Wednesday H 1–3 Rosenthal
12 February 1994 Blackburn Rovers H 0–2
27 February 1994 Chelsea A 3–4 Sedgley, Dozzell, Gray (pen)
2 March 1994 Aston Villa H 1–1 Rosenthal
5 March 1994 Sheffield United H 2–2 Scott, Dozzell
19 March 1994 Ipswich Town H 1–1 Barmby
26 March 1994 Everton A 1–0 Sedgley
It's memories like that means although I am gutted tonight - 99% of the time I have total pride in this team.
Just piss off. I dont believe you support Spurs. You show your true colours by only ever wanting to criticise Poch. Fans of rival clubs hate that he is our manager and would love to see him gone. You come on here to sow discontent. Your actions are so clear.
Our schedule was pretty ridiculous though.
But I agree, we cannot use it as an excuse. Because if we had won today, we wouldn't be moaning. We would have scored 12 goals in 3 games and probably praised the fixture list for giving us games in quick succession to keep our momentum up etc.
It’s actually a really great excuse. I’m not bothered by falling back on it. 3-0-1 in 10 total days is actually very good in every context except in the one where we are chasing Liverpool for the title.
One game. Big deal. Let’s move on...
Then surely you will enjoy staying up as for you there is nothing else
You'd be taken seriously if you had appeared when we beat you, but you didn't so all your comments are fruitless.
As I said you are making yourselves look extremely small time.
You are not going to over take us or compete for a CL place so why bother? By winning a game against a club that is in every comp going and running on fumes is not going to make you big time or give you any form of bragging rights over us. It was a one off game and you caught us on a bad day that is all.
You are right but you see this coming. It’s down to injuires in my opinion. Winks is not a DM his postioning defensively isn’t up,to it. Not his fault, he’s young and he’s doing what is asked, and he’s trying as we have had to play the same two in CM. He needs Dier, Dembele Wanyama with him where he can do what he does best, get the ball and move it on quicklyndribing forward into space
I don’t think think Winks has been the same since the injury. If anyone has been watching him he’s looked “lazy” since he came back. He gives up the run back after 30yards.
Games come thick and fast this period and need to rest and rotate.
For instance today we had one player we could rotate for the whole middle and front six
Other wise we had to call on a kid and a player on the scrap heap at our club.
We needed fresh players today but we had Just , one bar the defence, and that was a player who was probably still nursing his thigh
We have done well to be where we are with the continued injury problems, but it’s going to get harder. We need everyoe fit for selection pronto through this period.
How many times have we seen Spurs fade away on 70 mins?
The players we’re knackered and most probably had knocks from the last 2 games but had to play with them through necessity
Unlike the defence.

Good grief, are all Wolves fans as pathetic as you?? What a shit reply.
From what I saw of the game the players legs just went after 60 mins, simple as and I don't accept any of this mental weakness bollocks. We've been on the cusp of an injury crisis for about a month and today it caught up on us.
