No that is too many games now we have been awful under this manager. Our corners and crossing are pathetic how many ended up down the goalies throat. His substitutions are and in game management are generally crap. In what world did he think having just bent as a midfielder after Sarr goes off leaving a front 5 of kulu Johnson turbo son and solanki was goi g to rescue the points. Johnson should have hooked at HT for MADDs. It’s criminal that MADDs is up there in the chance creation stats but he gets 10 mins when the game is being manipulated by Ipswich when we need 2 goals. Johnson literally offered nothing that 2nd half yet sees over 35 mins. Yet our most creative player gets less than 10. Turbo did far more in his time than Johnson and that is saying something. Lulu is just an huff and puff player who sometimes creates or scores but has a glass ceiling. Solanki when needed doesn’t offer enough quality bar he’s work rate. We needed quality to break them down they just needed typical spurs to score.

Why did we not buy Neto ?
My guess would be his injury record. Had Spurs gotten him or Eze they would be a little more threatening. I don't think it would have been a huge difference, though.
 
I remember when you asked for a meet and I posted a pic of the inside of your pub on here. 👍🏻

Look lad, you're another one of those twats on here that thinks they're hard men 💪🏻

When in reality you're a twat... who feeds info to the police. I see you 👀

We're done, good luc kk
I called the police as you hit your wife. If this makes me bad so be it.
 
We were pure shite.

The players don't look interested at all.
the player were probably laughing and having a good time as soon they left the ground
they know that they have great salery and the worst that could happen to them is that their manager gets sacked or get sold to a diffrent club
they dont give a fuck about fans or spurs
 
FOK FOK now your record is only beaten by Ramos @2008.

Ban yourself forever more from starting match threads!

its the same in all football
my local team at the level were players salary is food and drinks after the game
they have like the president and youth coaches shouthing at the ref constantly seting a great example🤮
and then they wonder why they cant find a person to ref the match
it put me of going to the local ground to suport them
 
This comes from the head honcho. When the chairman is happy to settle for 4th best, not even 3rd or 2nd let alone 1st then that reeks of complacency and lack of ambition.

It then filters down to the manager and staff who are happy to 'take a free hit' midweek. To me that reads I'm happy to lose. That doesn't breed a winning culture. Success breeds success. You then save your best team for Ipswich on the weekend, but because the midweek game went to shit they start complacently and without any energy and you get rolled over in both games.

The club is not serious and that starts at the top.

How can you expect fans to get behind that really and truly? And yet we have some of the most loyal match day going support in the land despite paying the highest ticket prices for the privilege.

It's all wrong. If it wasn't for the wider experience and the good people you get to meet along the way, I'd have packed it in a while ago. Travelled across the continent and back, spending hundreds of pounds to see us lose twice because we aren't taking these games seriously is unacceptable. But go figure, I'm the melon in all this and levy is raking it in.
Brilliantly put.

I spend a good few months abroad these days, but even when I'm at my UK gaff, I don't go anywhere near as often as I used to. I can afford it, it ain't a money thing but I find it disgusting how expensive it's got, and like you say it's the great souls you meet at the pub pre or post match or even at the ground, but it's got to that stage where I just refuse to give that dwarf my money...he doesn't deserve it.
