That was his misses .I remember a West Ham fan punching a police horse at WHL, no one caught that on camera though.
TFC's newest member, ready for us to smash this lot this afternoon... doesn't look too happy with Daddy's choice of team, though!
Listen mate - if you wanna take a few days off around Christmas and need someone to look after the forum, I'd be happy to help out. I just need to know how the 'delete user account' and 'sin-bin user for life' buttons workA match thread worthy of the result. Good work.
Joe asked for his account to be closed. It's fine, it's only about the 3rd time this year. I'm sure I'll get the "can you open my account again" email at some point this week.
Terrible match thread, only two GIFS of Bulldogs.
I'm not going to read all of this, but you seem like a cunt. Wind your neck in, shut your mouth, and fuck offYou fuckin kidding here?
This attitude typifies why we will never win anything.
I said this when we failed to beat Chelsea, failed to beat West Brom, and now we have lost to Newcastle.
Let's wheel out the excuse-barrow.
1) Europa League!
-Walker, Rose, Vertonghen, Kane, Eriksen rested; Dier 45 mins and Alli 10 mins. Fuck off.
2) Would have taken a draw! Good effort, worked hard!
-It's fucking Newcastle. At White Hart Lane. Palace 5-1 Newcastle. Fuck off.
3) Unbeaten run shows we are hard to beat.
-Lost to Newcastle. Crystal Palace have lost SIX more than us and are LEVEL on points. Fuck off.
4) Resilience, plaudits, other bullshit.
-Tottenham 2-0 Stoke FT: 2-2
-Leicester 0-1 Tottenham FT 1-1
-Woolwich 0-1 Tottenham FT 1-1
-West Brom 0-1 Tottenham FT 1-1
-Tottenham 1-0 Newcastle FT 1-2
Enough of this shit. All this false praise being thrown around, realists being shat on. The facts are, we are still not good enough. Not anywhere near good enough. So proud of an unbeaten run that consists of more than 50% draws. Half of which were bottom half opposition. I call it like it is.
Dier- The Messiah. Yet, I have pointed out from the start, that still not good enough. Lost the ball on countless occasions very cheaply, no idea how to pass forwards.
Kane- Clueless. Ineffective. Could not hold up the ball to save his life.
Eriksen- Been anonymous for weeks.
Son- Townsend's brother from another mother.
Carroll- Completely useless.
Alli- Gets in good positions, does a lot of other needless shit antagonising players in ridiculous areas.
Lamela- Tried hard, but only one who seemed to care out of the shower of shit attacking force.
I'd prefer to see the direct attacking and running of the team against Monaco than the "first team" shitshow that has been going on for weeks. "Hard to beat" more like "can't close out the game".
We needed to click up a gear and start beating teams, closing games out, no such performances. Bournemouth, Newcastle, West Brom, Stoke and the much maligned on here, Leicester can up gears where we cannot. Wins over Chelsea, Liverpool, Woolwich and United where we could not.
Just fucking frustrating. I'm glad we lost though with the shitshow from the players at the end.
It's time to end this bullshit hope and this ridiculous faint praise, undeserved praise, for being unbeaten.
The run has ended and guess what?
Leicester are ahead of us by 6 points. Palace, Watford, West Ham, Liverpool, Everton and Stoke are all just 3 points behind. UNBEATEN RUN WOOOOO. Fuck you. It's the results that matter. And our performances have been pretty bland, ineffective, predictable etc.
This has been your usual wake up call. Stop being losers. Stop being arrogant. Stop being naive. Stop being childish.
Real winners acknowledge the problems and don't publicise toothless performances as a sign of the second coming.
As, I said before Chelsea, all were must win games. Now, 2 draws, 1 loss. Can't see us beating Watford or Norwich with this level of complacency and ineffective gameplay.
We pass backwards to Lloris like it will get us goals. We long ball, boot high and head the ball to opposition players. We dabble on the touchline playing idiotic passes in no space. We all run into the middle and then pass all the way back. Fucking predictable shit.
Next match, throw the team that played Monaco on. Except Walker for Trippier, Dembele for Carroll and Alli for Son.
Anyway, I'm sure my post will be unpopular as usual, since posters cannot take reality and necessary rudeness. Will see you all after Southampton. Hopefully it is a win. Not confident anymore. If we don't make top four, I can see Alli and Lloris leaving. Even more, if Leicester finish in it and if any of the chasing pack finish above us. Especially teams like Stoke and Palace.
Our chance and we are fucking up like "Spursy". Fuck "Spursy". Time to enter a new age. Pochettino remains unconvincing, but don't let that truth get in the way of celebrating mediocrity.
