madras Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Can't consider that anything other than 2 points dropped against one of the little teams we should beat every time. newcastle are just another stoke and botlon by the looks of it I dont mind drawing a game, but Newcastle are fuckin woeful. Felt like it was bolton we were playing for 90% of the match. And yes, Newcastle are that poor. Workmanlike side but no better than wolves level who we already beat (in fact wolves were by far the better side than Newcastle the other week) Bunch of tossers. bearing in mind todays game, what does that make them ? we were at least equal to them and it has to be said they hardly looked like a team going for the champs league.

Foluwashola Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Played some much better stuff when Ben Arfa came on. Too much of a gap between midfield and the forwards for the majority of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robm Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 We do play shit though. Way too many long balls. Biggest problem is that we have two big guys up front who are only useful when it comes to scoring goals. First half yes second half passed it from the back more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 oh and for all the wanking over gareth bale on here of late, he is a good player, sometimes he is a brilliant but very often, when you watch an entire game he plays like he did today.

Revolution Number 9 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Played some much better stuff when Ben Arfa came on. Too much of a gap between midfield and the forwards for the majority of the game. I think Santon made a bigger difference to our play tbh. Simpson hoofed it a fair bit from right back.

Guest bondedcrown Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Am i missing something here? Spurs are a v good team and we made them look ordinary for long periods of the game.BTW did anybody notice a push on B Best? in the box by Kaboul when the keeper gathered the ball? How was that not a penalty? then one of their players manhandled the ref! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots were praising you and claimed it was going to be a hard game beforehand, Greg (your poster) then decided to post a youtube video of you beating us 7-1 followed by a post about how Dawson makes him laugh and he's shit. After that it sort of went sour with a few posters claiming you lot were shit etc etc. Anyway those comments are based on pure frsutration imo and to get a good idea of how spurs fans viewed you lot and this game..look at the comments beforehand and look at the weekends thread a few weeks back where quite a few backed you lot to do well.

Jayson Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Sour grapes from their fans, we outplayed them. They had a few clear chances to, but they had Adebayor & Vdv upfront so youd expect it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Thought Ryan Taylor had a really good game. Motm was Colo , not by much though, Jonas came a close 2nd. What impresses me about Ba and Best is their work rate, never stopped closing down and running the channels, great effort up top. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfmag Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 We do play s*** though. Way too many long balls. Biggest problem is that we have two big guys up front who are only useful when it comes to scoring goals. Rubbish. We matched Spurs pass for pass today in the midfield - possession and passing success statistics back this up. Agree. Completely. I think what was so exciting about today was that we realised that this side could actually be the real deal. By our recent standards in any event.

Stu Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Night and day when Ben Arfa and Santon came on for Best and Simpson, we were a completely different team. Hopefully much more of the same. some people will stop at nothing to acknowledge a good performance by our 'figures of hate' another shocking statement.

I'd rather look at the bunch of sourfaced remarks from after the game. An even match where I thought both teams were committed to and gave as good as the got. To see those arrogant remarks afterwards is hilarious tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_b Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Who gave the penalty? The incident happened and the ref gave nothing. He looked at the linesman and gave nothing. He started running to the penalty area and gave nothing When he got to Adebayor he then decides to give a pen. It took between 5 and 10 seconds after the incident for him to give the pen and most people in the Leazes thought he was running over to book Adebayor for diving. Did Sky mention it at all?
