Absolutely mental that we've got the 3rd best away record in the league when we're sat in 17th.
Shows how historically wank our home form has been.
As a fairly new member of this board, i have enjoyed reading posts, opinions etc and am glad to have found an interesting bunch of people, more so, tonight, i was relieved when that final whistle went, we have to keep this going now we have momentum. A big shout out to Kinsky, the defence certainly seems less fragile when he is in goal.
That’s at least six hours quicker than it took me to cycle over it back in the day ! It would take me over a week if I attempted it today !!!
Does it look exactly the same as the picture on the box ( or did you have to jam a few bits in ( a lady never tells etc ) .
In all seriousness; jigsaw-ing is now actually a competitive sport ( this is a true story) ; apparently it’s all about practice, doing them over again ( not the same one obvs ) .
It’s been a great evening !!
( Strange question I know ; but what do you do once you’ve completed it ; swap it , give it away , frame it ; it’s a genuine question)
Because they're still unable to buy alcohol legally in the United States?
It's still not getting through to people just how catastrophically bad the 2024 summer window was for Spurs. Back in Europe, playing twice a week and we signed Solanke and teenagers. Those teenagers then had to play a lot because we had the never ending injury crisis.
In a perfect world Gray and bergvall would only now be getting minutes in the odd PL game and Cup games. The fact they've been starters for us since November 2024 is why we are in the mess we are.
i didn't know it was a competitive sport, I just do them for fun and relaxation.
I do them online and that's how I know how long it takes. I tend to do one a day, whilst I'm watching TV.
Home. Blootered. Happy.
Long time since I’ve been like this

Is it fair to say that was our best domestic performance of the season?
Because they off zero control in midfield and teams just run over us.
City away was probably better but close
First half was immense. Pushed up and dominated them. They couldn't get out of their own half for 45 mins. Could have been 4 or 5!
Frank set us back decades. Tonight was easily the best performance of the season. Villa couldn't match us physically and the 2-1 scoreline flatters them
Sorry a combination of joy and alcohol
I was replying to someone who asked why Bergvall wasn’t getting more minutes .
What an evening. We can all be very much more confident now ; although there’s still a lot of work to be done.
Tonight was big , very big .
It’s doable.
Can't really remember the last time we controlled a midfield battle like we did today, we had great possession, controlled movement, snuffed out attacks left and right. We just felt like a team in control for most of the game. That's a far cry from the 'abandon midfield' shite we've been seeing this year, either playing over the top or just shuffling the ball side to side around the middle.
It's so much less frantic and more control. Fair play to Palhinha and Bentancur for putting in a professional performance full of grit and calm. Gallagher in front in his more comfortable 10 role as well with his best game for us in a Spurs shirt. Needs to be the 3 for the last games, in my opinion. Let's keep it going lads.

When we are talked about on talksport there’s queues of fans trying to get on yet when teams like Villa are the topic they always say “if you call now you’ll get on”. They just don’t have the fanbase we do. They seem to have a massive chip on their shoulder about us. Must be a Midlands thing.
400 big pieces!
400 big pieces!
It would have been 401 if we had lost today.
It’s actually a competitive sport now ; I’ll have you know, it really is ; standard sets and against the clock.
Mrs P could be in the Olympics soon .
