The gulf in class, technical ability, tactics... it's really quite shocking. If Sissoko is still a Spurs player next year I'm supporting someone else.

Sweet! [:)]

Thank you for the clarification. Now I understand. [:)]

Football is boring without supporters
As it proved last night
The match between Croatia and England was played in an empty stadium
Croatia was punished for letting some idiots put a political symbol on there pitch so got punished
I turned over and watched something else as it was so quiet All you could hear was the commentator and the guys on the bench shouting
Just goes to prove that without the fans (and that applies to any sport )all these so called supperstars wouldnt be in employment getting silly wages by fleecing the fans
And the TV would not bye the rights to show the games yet fleecing the punters yet again so they can watch there team on TV

You said it.

With hysterical commentators or really noisy public (ie vuvuzelas from hell) I always mute TV.

I found out long time ago that silence is better to grasp what's going on in the pitch. So I might live without the plebs (panem et circenses). And I went to football stadiums circa a dozen times. I know what it's like a football cathedral. A totally different experience er panem et circenses. Where's the replay lol

So it's 4th Qualifying Round action day...

The Iron travel to Barnet with their new/old manager and this is just the first step as we begin our journey to win the FA CUP for the first time in our history.

Glued to the radio...

Good luck to Hakan and the lads.

OK.

Change of plans. We have decided to concentrate on the league this year.

Seems like a good plan.

The cup isn't all that important anyway.

A sensible plan by the Braintree management. If you choose to go for the Cup by the time you hit the bigger clubs in February/March time, you will find this detracts from the promotion push. As you sit a top the league steering your path to the Championship you really don't want a push for the double to make you veer off course through a too-many-game-induced tiredness.

Spurs are taking a leaf out of Braintree's book too. We are going to exit the Carabao, the Champions League (we'll finish 4th and miss Europa) and the FA Cup at the earliest opportunity in order to concentrate on avoiding relegation - just as the new stadium (still unopened in May 2019) is overcome by a plague of locusts.

Referee looks decidedly suspect. Perfectly good goal from Sanchez disallowed [:(]

Poch needs to haul Dembele off - not because we have anyone as good, but because we'll be playing with 10 men if he doesn't.

I hate football. 45 mins to either keep our CL hopes alive (even if only just) or probably finish 4th and not even make the EL.....

have I mentioned having a deep and fundamental hatred of football ...

It's just ridiculous. We can't see a game out because our defence is toilet. So with that in mind why do we go one-goal ahead and then muck around? Manchester City will take us apart on Monday - 0-5 is highly likely.

Football is such a great game...

Saturday was a sad day. As a football fan my thoughts go to the friends and family of those that died at Leicester.

Also wishing Glenn Hoddle all the best. Stay strong Glenn and keep fighting. You were a wizard on the pitch, let's hope the doctors can weave a little magic of their own.
