Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

If anyone is in any doubt about how much this handball rule is fucking the league, Newcastle created fuck all and their appeals for a handball were incessant every time the ball came into our box.

This is an embarassment and the proof of that will be when the FA scraps it.
Totally agree

Every shit two bob team are just going to scream for a penalty every time the ball is hoofed into the box

Cheers you cunt who made this rule
 
Fucking cheated. That one they've just shown from the ndombele cross was handball under the current rules.

Newcastle have shown the way for shite teams. Lob it in, lump it at an oponent and appeal for a pen
 
First It wasn't a foul, then Wilson was offside, then the penalty didn't exist. Fuck you who are saying we are tô blame for this shite, we were tottaly robbed here.
 
Reading on here we settled and parked the bus. Think I counted anything between 15-20 shots on target for us.

Doesn’t really scream bus parking.

Also, those decrying Dier for this, have a word. Wasn’t even looking at the ball.
 
It was never a pen but under no circumstances should we have found ourselves in that position in the 1st place. We were so poor offensively in the 2nd half.
 
Yes we should have killed it off but we weren't the problem today. We played well. Managed the tempo based on our schedule probably.
We were screwed by a stupid rule. Not Jose's fault. Not the players fault. Cos if you're saying it is then we're saying everyone needs to score 2 to win now to allow for the fucked up rule
 
It's ridiculous, new rule or not.

Dier has his back to the ball, there is literally nothing he can do to avoid it hitting his arm, how on earth can you have a rule that gives that as a pen?
