Agree. He's growing on me as well. Whilst I agree, I do cringe when he represents us in the press room. The guy needs some lessons in how to talk properly Just hope there are no "...... will not be sold this summer" situations. Would really damage his credibility. Dec 10th: "The fact he (Carroll) is a local boy and has a certain 'je ne sais quoi' bodes well. He is somebody the Toon Army loves, and I guarantee while I am here he will be here.” More fool you for believing him. Nothing more than a soundbite when in reality it was never his call. When did i say I believed it? Just pointing out that he has already made a dick of himself guaranteeing things he has no control over. He's only 'made a dick of himself' to the idiots who believe everything he comes out with. Not everyone took his word as gospel.

Biased of course, but I would give us agood chance of finishing above them if we can muster anything better than an abysmal start. I like Everton as a club but I just don't think the consistency is there to go top 6 yet. The talent is there but for some reason you are either really good or utter dross. As much as it pains me I think Spurs are better. Without Europe to worry about next year () I think Spurs will have a better League season next year too. I just don't get us. Our shite starts are perplexing enough but last season we had injuries galore IIRC. This season we didn't have many injury problems, still started shite, picked up some key injuries and now we're doing better! Even just an average start and I think we could seriously challenge Spurs, though I take your point about them having a better league season with the lack of European distraction - assuming they keep their key players, that is. The worrying thing is that it's not a one-off. Everton are so up and down it's untrue but it's been like that for the last few seasons as far as I can remember. Can't afford to go for 3 months with only 2 wins (or something like that) and expect to finish 6th.

Good way to look at it, especially when you cannot f***ing hide from it. I'd love to do her dentist a favour and knock them bastards out like One at a time with a toffee hammer. Won't hurt her looks methinks, she's got a face a dog wouldn't lick.

Thats why Liverpool are peaking now. They didnt start the season until Dalgleish took over The Liverpool players spent August to December trying to get their boss sacked because they didn't like him, the pack of fucking cunts. Pretty disgraceful really. Yes, KING KENNY!!!!!!!!!! will have given them a boost, but you have to question the attitudes of the players - by and large the same players - who are now busting a gut when under Hodgson they looked disinterested. Bingo.

Spurs have to score in the next 10 minutes. They're on top and need to punch one in to give themselves a chance.

He'd work for nothing to get an opportunity in the game.

Nee good peaking in November though is it Harry? Spurs look exhausted.

Wonder what odds a bookie would give me now on Spurs finishing 6th next season? There are 5 clubs much better than them and they're comfortably better than the other 14.

Still in his honeymoon. The signs are good for them but finishing the season well counts for fuck all in August.

Still think, and it's just a gut feeling, that his head was turned a few months ago. Nothing to back it up but it's a hunch. The fact he's said he wants to wait 'til we were safe before thinking about a new contract (or words to that effect) always stunk of a holding phrase which placated the fans without committing to anything. Resigned to him leaving but I'll be delighted to keep him if he decides to stay. He's got ambition the owners can't match.

Is he there on loan by any chance? Does he need a new contract?

What an utter, utter cunt. Why the fuck would he get two? Fucking bellend. because he can't count. He can't score either, the pernicious little cunt.

Aye, but it was full of people from Whitely Bay when he went to be fair.

If I had 6 'free' bullets Owen would get 5 of them. The last I'd save for James 'the cunt' Corden, just for the record.

You sure about that? Speak your mind mate.

I never said top notch. Top notch to me indicates world class so obviously that isnt happening. The next tier down like a Cardozo, Lukaku, Falcao, Cavani etc etc will be attainable though provding Levy breaks wage structure. Class players, top notch, whatever. Don't know the ins and outs but I can't see Levy breaking the rules, if he'd wanted too surely Jan would've been the time. Falcao, from what I've seen would be devilish in the Premiership, I think Spurs have suffered from playing Crouch too much this season as like with when he plays for England players look or the direct game when they're better playing the short game. but Levy did try and break the wage structure in january? you think he was bidding over 30m on 3 or 4 players to offer them 50k wage? So if they didn't sign then, why should they sign now? Do you actually read what i write? i said not those top tiers but the next tier down and actually state the players by name. Easy tiger, was only suggesting you are a less attractive option than you were in January. Yeh sorry man. Just re-read the post again and it did seem harsh (you rarely give me stick on here). Of course we're a less attractive option which is why we can totally forget the idea of Rossi, Aguerro etc etc. We need to look at the next tier down and take risks. Saying that, Llorente might still be attainable from the original targets (and Forlan too as he seems to have been frozen out a little). I could be very wrong but the way Redknapp's been talking lately, he just seems so fed up with some of our players. I mean how a player can cost us double figures in points this season alone is frightening. That's why i can't and won't put much blame in Harry this season (except not buying a striker which was a sham tbf). To be honest that means splashing the cash big time, either on wages or transfer fees. Find it hard to believe that Levy would go mad and gamble that much. A more pertinent question would be 'who might leave in search of champions League football?' You've got some excellent players there vdV, Bale, Modric and they're going to want to play at the top. It's going to be a fine balancing act to keep them happy whilst attracting the players needed to get you back in the top 4.

No, not really. There's nothing wrong with most of the squad. The major problem is that we've forgotten how to defend. We have two utter fucking jokers in Dunne and Collins, who have been dreadful all season (and were, apparently, out on the piss till 4am the morning of the West Brom game), who the manager won't drop, while Carlos Cuellar sits on the bench. Kyle Walker is going to be a great midfielder, but he is never in a million years a full back. Luke Young has steadied the ship since coming in at left back. Ashley Young will go, and to be honest, that's a good thing, he's been poor for almost two years now, and both he and the club could benefit from a change. At the start of the season, I thought it would be hard to make the top six again. Looking at the way the season has panned out, I now think it would not have been impossible. Having said that, for this squad to have spent most of the season in the BOTTOM six is absolutely unacceptable, and that is down to the manager, I am afraid. I know you weren't O'Neill's biggest fan but would you swap him back for Houllier?

I actually think the opposite. His comments recently indicate that he's well and truely fed up with a few players so hopefully it's the return of the cut throat, no nonsence Redknapp and not this 'nice guy' imposter we've had this season. He said we need to bring in "class players" too. All sounds promising. Nee offense but which 'class' players are going to move to Spurs? If they want quality players then they'll have to scrap their wage structure. Quality players want quality money.

Said last night that he was lucky not to get a red. To have that much of a go at a ref to the extent that he's in his face shouting plus it went on for ages is the worst example of dissent I've seen for a long time. Bang out of order. And what's worse is that any "manager" with half a brain would have subbed him there and then. In fact, they wouldn't have had him on the pitch in the first place, but that's by the bye. Gary McAllister is a horrible shit house. Sorry. Just wanted to say that. Major surgery needed in the summer on your squad? Seems to have gone a bit stale from the outside looking in.
