That would seem the only thing they could do I think? Perhaps open the window for 24 hours or so for those affected.What are they going to do? Open the exchange only for ST holders without a ticket?
Maybe let our fans take it over when their lot leave at HT?Just refuse to give their fans tickets and fill their end with home fans instead.
Tempting,but probably against premier league rules.Just refuse to give their fans tickets and fill their end with home fans instead.
Like calling a game off because you can't manage your own squad.Tempting,but probably against premier league rules.
The premier League allowed that though. Can't see them allowing us to block away fans,unless we come up with a good reason. Maybe get health &safety to look at it...Like calling a game off because you can't manage your own squad.

I do think all the players they didn't have when the game was due should be made to sit out this one.
They clearly wanted it off because of AFCON, injuries and suspensions.
Shouldn't affect us, not our fault a game scheduled before the window opened was postponed for 5 solid months because of them.
I think we'd have beaten them when we were due to play them so maybe we're no better off and no worse off.But karma has come back to bite them… they will be without Tierney, Tomiyasu and likely Partey as well. Meanwhile we will have Sonny, Bentancur and Kulu, none of whom would’ve played the scheduled fixture. As a Spurs fan, in hindsight I am absolutely delighted they bottled the game.
As long as we beat them I couldn’t give a fuck!I think we'd have beaten them when we were due to play them so maybe we're no better off and no worse off.

I'm not convinced we're over our stage fright problems yet.Beaten… possibly… but this Spurs side will absolutely gape them!
