Match Sporting (H) - UCL - 26/10, 8pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Even after a fresh air break
The other patently stupid thing about Var is that they draw those silly lines as if it’s geometrically precise but pay zero attention to the point the ball actually leaves the passing player.

It’s drivel.
Said for ages why do they not mark lines down the sidelines to mark and align them to. Which would then negate all the angles. It's a half cooked system that is destroying the joy in the game. Designed by business or legal cunts who have been paid far too much money and have no clue.
 
i don't understand the rules?

if he heads it along the path of blue arrow then i think that is off side.

if he heads it backwards, cannoning off the defender into kane's path along the path of the yellow arrows, i thought that wasn't off side
 
Honestly, as much as I love Spurs and the Club, the reality is that what I have a passion for no longer exists. The game has gone. Now a prime time pantomime that functions to entertain the fat international armchair bound wankers and day trippers with selfie sticks and a bag full of merch. STH to my right sold their ticket to a lovely Korean ‘fan’, but one who was chatting/streaming to her BF all game, looking at her close up videos of Son from the warm up pre match, not even watching the game.

VAR and all the gamesmanship are turning what was a decent, physical game into a British version of WWE/F. It’s not sport any more. It’s a filthy reflection of modern life: to cheat and weasel is to do.

Our stadium is also an altar to materialistic greed. £75 for a basic match day ticket. Fuck off. Kits for the kids? Cheap replicas £100 please. Fuck off.

Players and staff more disconnected from fans than the Royal Family.

Fuck this shit.

Have a great evening all.

Did it touch the arm/hand of the defender? If so, looking at the pen Atletico got, it should have been a pen because its obviously not PL rules for handball.
 
This woman on the US broadcast says that they are using automated offside technology that uses the lines from the time Emerson touches the ball. Could have sworn the rule is from the moment it leaves his head?

Thought the same leaving after the defeat to the camel botherers on Sunday. Not a tackle in the game, yet the ball was hardly in play and I think the blonde tranny duo both went down with injuries at least five or six times each. Awful. That said, liverpool city week befor was a great game
 
I just can't believe ANY of us were STUPID enough to celebrate that goal...

I naively punched the air with pure, unadulterated joy.... Like a stupid cunt....
but more fool me....

Shoulda waited for fucking VAR to decide whether I'm allowed to BE HAPPY or not!
ONE fucking MOMENT of happiness.... ripped away...

Nah, fuck that, how DARE anyone enjoy ANY brief moment of happiness in this fucking SHITSHOW world we live in right now!

Of COURSE we should have that happiness ripped out of our hands.... How DARE we be happy any more!! What's the fucking point?

Tell you what.... Give the cunts what they want...
Imgine a stadium who greet a last minute 'winning' goal with ABSOLUTE SILENCE?

Let Sky try and sell THAT product to the world!

But hey, if that's what they want, that's what they'll get...
You tell us when we're 'allowed' to be happy, and we'll oblige.... just give us the nod, ok?

Fucking killjoy cunts!
