If we had a full strength side it might of been a different story. I think Conte has trying to make a statement with his choice of players tbh

Actually it was just a translation of Bill's remark ......however I can understand the drinking after watching the game....I'm feeling vaguely suicidal this morning about conte staying and our future in general....do we even have one....Haha yes of course, it was meant to be a joke about grammar v grandma because someone on another thread had been talking about their grandma signing for Spurs. But if you have to explain a joke then it's obviously not a very good joke, so apologies. In my defence I had been drinking heavily by that point!
By Italian press
(…)Tottenham wait, but try to leave as soon as they have the opportunity. Bergwijn still flies on the wave of his double exploit of Leicester. And it is precisely on a foray of him that one of the talked about actions of this derby arrives: the Dutchman manages to serve Sessignnon who unmarks Kane in the middle of the area. The Tottenham scorer turns into the area and beats Kepa, but the referee punishes him for a very weak push on Thiago Silva and cancels. Conte doesn't take it well: "Maybe in Italy he canceled it, but here in England ..."(…)

Some of you don't even know the difference between pushing and fucking holding, this was what he got booked

No worries you were right.
Wish I shared your confidence that we will get past BrightonHas someone ever played the same opponent five times in a season and lost them all? If not, do you get a trophy for it? Asking for a friend.
I agree it is a really odd turn of phrase. I am minded to think it is some thick youngster with a marketing degree.
Dunno if I am too long in the tooth or just hardened to it but it doesn’t bother me in the slightest - it is all gesturing macho bollocks unlike in the 70/80’s when there was genuine hostility and menace - how can a genuine racist/antisemite support Chelsea when they are bankrolled to all their recent success by a Jewish billionaire and 90% of the 1st team squad are foreign or black?
I follow Tottenham for my love of primarily football I have no real interest in opposing fans - race, religion, political persuasion , gender, sexual orientation or the football team you support we all have the same right to exist . That said I’m not going to passively stand by and be abused by anyone!!
See how easy it is?
I think Roman bought the club because he preferred the King's Road area of West London to the High Road area of Tottenham!
That said, I assume he knew fuck all about their vile breed of fan before he bought them.
What's shocking is, that he remained prepared to bankroll the fucking Nazis when he MUST'VE realised at some point down the line what he'd bought into...
Maybe 'Hissing' doesn't translate into Russian, and he didn't understand the implications....
or maybe, as I fear, he did, but doesn't REALLY care!
We canThis Chelsea team have looked disjointed and moody for weeks. They play spurs and then they are a different team, they just get up for playing against us. Ziyech nearly even smiled FFS.
Would just love to beat them a few times to break this awful cycle. Why can't we have shiny things too?
Levy’s head
Couldn’t agree more … I find the whole thing a bit baffling and slightly disturbing
I would say the same but “the gas is on, bringing the heat” is not a phrase I’ve ever heard and that’s suspicious to me. Particularly the first part of the phrase
Considering there are so many other heat sources available these days, it's odd they chose this one to STOKE THE FIRE!!
let's be honest, ANY mention of Gas/Ovens, Heat, or Burning... when playing SPURS smacks of A CLUB who know EXACTLY What it's referring to.... (I say 'the club' because that surely involves the STAFF Twatter representative that wrote it)
The only way to address the inappropriate behaviour you claim to have witnessed is to report such matters. Failure to do so does nothing other than allow the sort of action you witnessed to continue.
Its pretty easy to do so so here’s the number 07894 937793
Sure...... Go ahead... Completely ignore the guy's comments about injury concerns with Skipp, Reg, Emerson and Lucas.....
FFS....... There's pages of you all writing this conspiracy bullshit about "sending a message" whilst ignoring Conte.... The next minute he says something that suits, you'll all be hanging on his every word again.

THE PREMIER LEAGUE IS NOT ALLOWING SPURS TO BEAT CHELSEA
The last three meetings has had major controversy in the Spurs-Chelsea games. In the Carabauo Cup semi-finals first leg at Chelsea, Sarr deliberately elbowed Harry Kane in the cheek. There was no VAR even when they showed the replay and Sarr was smiling when he only got a yellow. A week before on Sky, Jamie Carragher said Harry Kane gets preferential treatment because he is the England captain. So Carragher is saying the referees are not honest, but only for Tottenham which is a lie from Sky (Woolwich TV).
The second match, Anthony Rudiger panicked and made a huge lunge to stop Holjberg running through on goal. Ref gave a penalty but VAR ruled it outside. While Sky’s Andy Hinchcliffe bleated about sod all, Sky deliberately missed that Ruidiger should have been sent off for that humongous lunge and taking out the Spurs player.
If you do a humongous lunge and don’t get the ball and foul a player you get sent off, period. Yet Andre Mariner didn’t even give a yellow card. So two incidents could have reduced Chelsea to 10 men.
Then last Sunday, Kane scores a fair goal for the ref to disallow for the slightest touch. As Gary Neville called it, it was a game changing moment, and he took Roy Keane to task for trying to justify the incident. What happened to that big announcement they are gonna let more challenges happen and not give for the slightest touch??
Patrick Vieira said it well after his match with Palace V Liverpoo and remarked on the penalty for Liverpoo, “The referee killed our legs”.
That is exactly how many Tottenham players feel, when every match you do not even get the same level of refereeing as even teams like Brighton. On here I read so many fans blame the players constantly but when you have this level of refereeing it's IMPOSSIBLE to focus on the game, while Chelsea can dive at a smallest contact and play with complete freedom of the park.
This cannot continue forever. It is so corrupt and blatant it’s a disgrace!
Tottenham get the worst refereeing ON THE PLANET!
Something must be done about Mike Riley (head of referees) and whoever else is screwing Spurs’ chances of a top 4 finish and cup glory. The club need to be proactive and defend Tottenham Hotspur F.C. and stop putting out mealy-mouthed statements that the enemy media called "measured" like they did when Woolwich cancelled their game on fake Covid grounds.
If you don't stand up to a bully they will always get away with it!
