:thup: Top thread. Solano deserves praise aswell because he has been superb, Watching the game yesterday and its amazing watching him play because he reads the game so well, Solano and Milner link up well.

Add Butt aswell then

Im optimistic, That twat Diouf is out so im gonna go for a 2-1 win for the lads. Martins and Le Sib to get the goals and Anelka for them.

Fucking hell your in a good mood, You pissed or something?

:lol: :lol: Merry fucking Christmas! I'd love to see his face if we did the double over them.

I might put £10 on that now, He's only 3 goals away from Drogba That's why I done it, he's the one who's coming into form too Martins was unlucky not to get a hat trick today, When Parker scored Martins had a shot which Robbo got to which then pop up for Parker to head in and Martins could of scored late on. Drogba is obvious fav's but at 33/1 is worth a punt.

There all above us in the league

Nah i think Butt has been better

Yep over rated, He's a good player but vastly over rated!!!! He doesnt seem to score away from home in the premiership, Tbh i dont think he has what it takes to be a big success in the premiership.

The shop are selling white T shirts and black markers in a set, a bargain at £35. I have no doubt a few people would buy it aswell.

Gotta give it to Chelsea they never give up

Newcastle United (3) 3 Tottenham Hotspur (1) 1 Petrified by the blistering attacking pace of Obafemi Martins and Kieron Dyer, Tottenham merely succeeded in bolstering Glenn Roeder's burgeoning managerial reputation. Considering Newcastle's horrendous injury problems this season, Roeder has done rather well. So well, indeed, that Freddy Shepherd yesterday declared he would not swap his manager for Sir Alex Ferguson. After such fulsome praise from the chairman, sceptics might have expected Roeder's side to lose, but this is an improving Newcastle ensemble whose commitment to attractive, attacking football serves as a refreshing antidote to the safety first attitudes permeating much of the Premiership. Dyer's return from long-term injury has done much to help Roeder's cause. Finishing has not always been his forte but the midfielder made no mistake with the splendid low shot, directed into the bottom corner, which provided Newcastle with an early lead. Martins' through pass from deep released Dyer after Michael Dawson had failed to cut out a clearance from Nolberto Solano. A combination of electric pace and close control enabled Dyer to dodge Ledley King and beat Paul Robinson in front of the watching Steve McClaren. Much more of this, and he might really find himself back in McClaren's England squad. Spurs looked in defensive disarray and this was further emphasised when Martins swiftly headed Newcastle's second goal of the afternoon — his sixth in as many games and ninth of the season. The fact that Scott Parker, whose pass cued up the £10 million striker, had looked offside during a preamble initiated by James Milner's centre, failed to prevent the Toon Army from twirling their black and white scarves in celebration. Not that Martin Jol's side were quite done. Danny Murphy, who had been promoted from the substitutes' bench when Jermain Defoe dropped out of the visiting starting line-up minutes before kick-off, reduced the deficit after meeting Pascal Chimbonda's cross and seeing his shot deflect off Steven Taylor, flying beyond the wrong-footed Shay Given. With Dimitar Berbatov spurning an excellent chance when clean through, Newcastle took a turn at appearing dazed and disorientated before Parker assuaged Geordie nerves by heading them further ahead after Robinson had parried Milner free-kick into a penalty area melee. Critics of the England goalkeeper may say that Robinson, who experienced a worryingly unconvincing afternoon under McClaren's gaze, should have held on to that original Milner effort but, clearly benefiting from that coruscating pace injected by Dyer and Martins, Roeder's team were playing some good, slick-passing stuff. Even so, Berbatov missed another good chance at the outset of the second half, shooting wide when he probably should have done better. Indeed with Newcastle's on-going injury crisis primarily affecting Roeder's defence — in which Solano played out of position at right-back and 18-year-old novice centre-half Paul Huntington appeared at left-back, Jol's men might reasonably have been expected to give Given a few more frights. Infuriatingly inconsistent, Spurs are a real chameleon team, and a few of Jol's personnel belied their expensive price tags and much-vaunted reputations during an afternoon which further enhanced Roeder's managerial street cred. Match summary Man of the Match: Kieron Dyer: His blistering pace and adhesive like close control make the midfielder at times resemble an electrically powered toy. Scored the opener and petrified Spurs. Moment of the Match: Dyer’s opening goal. Scored on the counter-attack it arrived less than a minute after Steed Malbranque had threatened to give Spurs the lead. Moreover the preamble to his unerring low shot into the bottom corner made a mockery of both Michael Dawson’s and Ledley King’s lofty defensive reputations. Rating: 8/10 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/main.jhtml?xml=/sport/2006/12/24/sfgnew24.xml :thup:

Butt had another good game today, Its amazing how his season has gone.

Just said it was a huge win and the game plan worked. Didnt say fuck all about injuries so i dont think Given is all that bad

Parker said "You kno" alot!!!! 1 thing im happy about is the fact that we now seem to have the ability to bounce back after a defeat, We lost to Chelsea then beat Watford and again we lost to Chelsea and then beat Spurs. Some praise to Roeder, He got his tactics right today.

My mate calls him a cross between Van Nistlerooy and Henry or something :lol: It really bugs me when people talk about Spurs fighting for the title next season and saying they are fav's for the Uefa cup, They are 3 points above us and we had a terrible start so basically that means they havent had a good start either yet idiots are predicting they will finish 3rd-4th. Berb is a decent player and pretty skillful but he's no-where near the quality of RVN or Henry and he never will be. Im happy we got Martins rather than Berb.

I honestly cant see why people rate Spurs so fucking highly!!!! They are utter shit away from home and Berb althou a good player is vastly over rated. I expected a win today and even predicted a 3-1 win, I wouldnt be suprised if Spurs finished between 10th-8th.

Wouldnt it be nice if we beat Chelsea and Southend beats Spurs.

Bridge,SWP and Ferreira all start tomorrow. Seems like Chelsea want to display there soon to be rejects to there best customer.

Fucking hell i cant wait for the Luque to fuck off, Its irratating the way people bang on about him. Ive seen nothing from Luque that would suggest that he even wants to succeed here, Why people still back him is beyond belief.

And they wonder why everyone is laughing at them, Bunch of fucking idiots

Whats the matter with him? ? Is it the same injury as before?

Whats the matter with him?
