Oh no yew wouldn’t
Don’t try and palm us off with that one!
On a roll!
The Des Walker Derby
Walker got released from Spurs because he refused to get a haircut at Bill Nicholson's behest and went on to become the greatest English defender of his generation.
Letting him go however turned out to be an absolute stroke of genius by Nicholson as Walker scored the own goal that won us the Fa cup in 1991.

Well, they aren't to be underestimated. This will be the first time Forest has played a 'top side' in years (decades?) and they will want to put in a good performance in front of their home fans.
Cup final performance from Forest. Can Conte get our guys to give enough?
I would be very surprised if the expectations at Hotspur Way was anything other than 3 points.Well, they aren't to be underestimated. This will be the first time Forest has played a 'top side' in years (decades?) and they will want to put in a good performance in front of their home fans.

There are no easy 3 points in the EPL.
Well, we only won 9 of our 19 AWAY games away last season. Dropping what we would have assumed as 3 pointers to Saints, Everton, Burnley, Brentford, Palace
Tin Just noticed we are playing Sunday, Wednesday then Saturday.

Interesting spelling of Tottenham.
Treefic ain't it
Another hard game incoming.
I think the concerns are fair about starting slowly and not being on the front foot enough.
I guess it's also a matter of how we soak up the pressure or deal with any lack of possession.
We have certain types of players to fit into Conte's preferred system.. I am not even sure that if we had the best two central midfielders out there that it could be hugely different.
If we want expansive football it ain't happening but equally I think we have a style of play the players are comfortable with and trust.

I think we will win this comfortably. Forest will come at us and we have the quality to pick them off. Just need to weather the storm at the start with the crowd really up for it. 3-0 Spurs.
Ahh leaf it out mate!
I've always used 'sap' to mean a gullible or weak person (as in 'sapped' of strength). Probably is a more American term though, a more British version being 'sop' (as in 'milksop')
More often or not when I've heard 'sap' used on the other side of the pond, it's to describe someone who is being overly and overtly romantic (sappy). Again, i think a more British version being 'soppy'.

Fuck sake. It's not funny anymore.
On topic: who is commentating on the game? Is it Rob Hawthorn?
Yew may be right, but yew might be barking up the wrong tree, feller. I'm going to go out on a limb and say we'll win this with our usual line-up, touch wood.
God, I'm missing Skipp in our 1st eleven (no puns here - just real emotion!).
