Match Newcastle Away 1.30pm Sunday Sept 1

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

If we keep letting in goals the way we have been there is no chance of us winning any cup.A few folk seem to think if we decide to actually go for a particular cup we will win it ,if only it was that simple
 
We're always something short of doing something worthwhile though, eh?

Absolutely.

I saw your earlier message talking about the press and how many chances we created. Solanke plays and we probably rip them to pieces during that period but he isn't and fucking miraculously our other CF isn't fit either.

But at the same time, the players we had on the pitch were good enough to take at least one of those chances. We seem to have chemistry in pockets but without a settled from 3 rotation we seem to be the wrong pass away from scoring easy goals every time. Either that or someone isn't at the far post for the tap in where they should be. It's not like they don't understand what's being asked of them either... Even I know we need to get the opposite winger to tap in the low cross at the back post.

Mainly because we fell foul to the exact same counter attacks as we’ve done the last 9 months. We lose the same way every single time we lose.

That was the fist counter attack chance we've given up in 3 games.

Not that it will make any difference because everyone will still fixate on it regardless but if your style of football is dominating games, you will give up chances on the odd break. Especially with VDV missing.
 
Well, there we are then.

Well I have had enough , I am up for a massive protest . If anyone knows of one I can do with no effort and ideally from my arm chair , also it can’t take up to much time or interfere with my weekends then I’m half heartedly in .

PS it also can’t be weekdays as it clashes with Loose Women
 
It's shit in here innit?

Some of us enjoy the wins, everyone turns up for the losses and repetitively types the same shit about how it's the end of the world and all our players are shit.

It's not the end of the world and all our players aren't shit. We aren't in a title race, we are in exactly the same place we are every year, 4-8th and we have a great chance at Europa with some exciting young talent.

That's what this club is under these owners, I don't really get why people are expecting any different. At least the football gets your heart rate pumping.

Wait till we lose against the scum
 
Be honest. Who of us, knowing what we are as a team and not knowing the final score would look at the match stats
Newcastle. Spurs
Shots on target
3 6
Shots off target
3 6
Blocked shots
3 8
Possession
34%. 64 %
Crosses
12 26
and expect anything other than a one or two goal defeat
 
We are a very good side but soft as fuck mentally. A game that we should never lose but you can see it coming. Top teams take Newcastle apart with that much dominance but not us. We don’t have the balls to be a top team.
