Match West Ham (A) - BYOB (Bring your own binoculars) - 13th Sep, 530KO

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

VAR is not the issue, it's still the same problem in that it's run by inept and corrupt halfwits.

They'll fine Madders for "bringing the game into disrepute," yet all he's done is give voice to what we all see and know.

The only people bringing the game into disrepute are the officials in this country, and the organisation that thinks they can punish anyone that points out their ineptitude.
I get all that but until the people running VAR get better at it, and there's been no indication of this in 5 full years now, then VAR as a whole is just a waste of time, it's a net negative.

Just bin it.

At this point I think they just like it as another element that can be subtly used (or not) to affect the outcome of games. Use it to change calls you need to change, and don't use it to not change calls you don't want to change (our disallowed goal yesterday).

Great result. Lots of work to do still, and I did find our first half a little pedestrian in terms of passing tempo - but 5 games into the Frank tenure I’m impressed.

What’s very very clear is we’re going to be tough to score goals against and that’s never a bad thing. COYS.
Need to inject some pace. Even though Richi and Solanke arnt what you’d call top level CFs they do provide a presence up top. Need them playing or kolo then we can free up xavi in the 10. Need our better more technical players on the ball as much as poss.
