  1. why should we expect them to dig into their own pockets,don't see david dein doing much of that or martin edwards before selling out. truth is some fools on here just want fat fred out regardless of who or what comes in.....i've no problem with him being ousted but i want to know what any takeover leaves us with. i struggle to understand the reasoning of the anyone but fred campaign..............as i've said before "be careful what you wish for" .i remember people thinking the same about the pirate westwood but look what happened then. Ooops! Careful Madras, you'll get lumped in with me as the most hated person on the forum for having an opinion that goes against the kids. wow someone hates you on an internet football forum.............,must be unbearable,what you gonna use,a noose or pipe to the exhaust?
  2. not something leaked by one of the buying parties to try and put an under pressure board under more pressure. "oh my a piece of nufc news,how can i look at this in a negative way with absolutly no evidence" bet you thought the rooney bid was a lie eh?

    Training today

    I'd go with the complete opposite of that TBH. I would start Emre with Butt as they've both looked different players without Parker. I'd also start Sibbers with Martins to further develop their partnership and leave Dyer on the bench becuase he's the only person capable of really changing a game in the last 35 minutes if we need to chase the win AND he's hardly the most reliable person to play against a big, physical Watford side scrapping for points. Duff will start if fit. 2nd that not sure about that,bearing in mind how long duffs been out i reckon he'll go dyer on the right and milner left if sibbs is fit(ie no need for dter to play up front) You might be right - I would have thought he would want a naturallt left sided/footed player on the wing that was my theory. I suppose it depends on how fit Duff is. i know what you're getting at but milner has played on the left a good few times and maybe better to ease duff back in if we can with him being out so long.

    UEFA Cup Draw Thread

    reckon we deserved a bit of luck in the draw after the group stages...........and as for AZ or the team who's fans want you to "eat crushed dog shit" it aint that bad as at leat 1 team in each pairing is decent throughout the draw.

    Best away day

    villa,not so much birmingham itself but always seemed to be a good day out,we also had a very good record there till recently.and york on the way home till the last train.
  10. don't see why we can't get 6points from watford and spurs and at least a point each from everton,bolton and spurs away.
  11. It's an odd thing because the movies and history actually interest me, but at the same time I could never even think of joining a firm. The concept is ridiculous and most of the members are equally ridiculous. I've read the books by Cass Pennant and I couldn't put them down, thought they were great insight of the lifestyle. He was a right mean bugger and told some harrowing tales. I suppose my interest mainly lies in why someone would want to join a firm? Which is still beyond me even after reading the books. it's quite simple how it starts....when you were younger did you ever snap when someone beat you at something and they rubbed it in.....it starts off like that then breeds. as for those books they are hilarious,they were all in the hardest gangs,all have stories of going away and being outnumbered 5 to 1 but sending the other lot running. away from the casuals etc there was a bunch of toon fans we knew as "the geezers"(we called them that,they didn't have a name for themselves as they werent a gang as such)whom i first came across about 1980,really 70's relics,never went looking for trouble but were quite active in defending themselves.,kept away from the buisier bars but a harder group of blokes would be hard to imagine

    Essien's goal

    both robert's V spurs make them look like goal line scrambles

    Essien's goal

    Hell no, it wasn't. Taylor's goal was pure luck, Essiens shot was simply brilliant. Taylor's goal for GotM. i agree,that he was possibly offside may count against him though :winking:

    Michel Salgado.

    he's shit. He's the Spanish Stephen Carr. Since when has Carr been an integral part of a Champions League winning side? spurs fans will tell you that 4 years ago if it wasn't for this ,that,the other,and of course those they would have won the champs lge.
  17. ....franz ferdinand,madonna,judd law,kaiser chiefs,snow patrol,radiohead,the martix,arctic monkeys. anyone see the connection ?
  18. Quoted for truth and I think this can apply to that c*** Savage, as well. on one or two reprts n'zogbia could be in trouble...don't see it myself,wasn't a punch ,more of a push nowhere near faces,after provocation(look at the way he gets dragged up by neill and was it savage!!)
  19. or is he already cottoning on to the banality of british interviews,"hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm there have been so many to decide between"
  20. haven't read through this thread but has anyone nominated luke young yet? can't be happy at charlton
  21. LUQUE LEFT BACK bluebigeek.gif bluebigeek.gif bluebigeek.gif bluebigeek.gif might as well send in our youth team........its not going to change the result where is luque left back in there?
  22. Not that I give a shit about this incredibly puerile argument, but you could point out that if the capacity is 36,000 and the average for that season is over 35,000, then it is pretty much safe to say that every game was either close enough to a sellout to actually be one (ie 35,900 is a sell out effectively) or there were games when away teams didnt fill their allocation. not really as you have to remember that because it is an average then there has to be a good few games where the actual attendance is below even that. But not that many, as the attendance can never be above 36000 - so for the average to be almost 36k, the lowest gates must have been still quite close to that, or the average would be much lower. If you get my drift. Not that I care about their attendances, my main objection to Spurs fans is one half decent season and they think they're Barcelona all of a sudden. you can use that last sentence for ecerton aswell.
