Tottenham Hotspur 2011-2012 Official Thread

Once we started playing.

A trait that I've seen too many times to count from Spurs - only 'waking up' when they concede a goal and realise they're in a game.
 
Thought Spurs were easily City's equal.

Tending to agree. I'm not a Tottenham fan at all, the reverse if anything, and I was marginally -- only marginally -- favouring City.

But I'd agree that storming back to 2-2 was impressive, and they were unlucky to lose like that.

For an almost-neutral like me, a far from boring game anyway!
 
Watching MotD last night with Hansen and Dixon, I think I was probably amused and embarrassed in equal measure by their naive and hackneyed tactical analysis. Way, way out of their depth. How did Hansen describe the first half ?

Fwiw, I thought it was a perfect tactical battle with every single player on the pitch being totally switched on. Really topmost quality sport.

I know I will be accused of bias but have been very impressed with Gary Neville's analysis so far.
 
I haven't heard him - I presume he's on Sky?

btw, if anyone is in the Tooley Street area this week and fancies popping in to Southwark Crown Court to take a peek at the listings.....
 
So have I. Hated his guts as a player, but he's the best British pundit for fucking ages.

Haven't seen much of him cos when I stream I prefer to go for an American channel as there's less chance of the stream getting cut off so I'm stuck with Warren Barton on Fox most of the time but even some City fans on Blue Moon give Neville a bit of grudging respect.

Same, but the odd time I do catch a match on Sky (read: going to the pub) he's seemingly the only one willing to offer an honest and analytical opinion. Plus he's not afraid to fly his colours as a Man U fan. All the more refreshing.

I like watching the games with foreign commentators, I have no idea what they're saying but they make everything sound exciting. I was watching some Korean channel yesterday and they were loving it.

The Arab channels are always a good laugh. The Russian ones too.
 
Redknapp in court today, trial will take two weeks. HMRC and CPS appear v. V. Confident. Suspended sentence, or custodial?
 
anyone found any comments from parker about the incident?

Im happy to say it was accidental, apart from anything else none of the spurs players hit him or squared up to him!

Bungpuss said in the postmatch interview that Parker had said it was an intentional stamp.
 
'arry did say this (when asked): "Why would anyone want to do that on a football pitch, deliberately stamp on someone’s head?"
 
ahh only saw the beeb one

and yeah lc i know arry thinks its a stamp. But not heard anything from parker yet!

also did balotelli do anything silly after the match? I demand tales of door sensors and boxing gloves and casinos and shit.

Super Mario's a very lucky boy.
Its a shame that from this you can see that Modric misses it - his eyes are looking at the ball- if he'd seen it the team might have kicked up a fuss at the time it happened.

The more I look at it, the more you can see Mario just falls over on purpose too

A very theatrical fall isn't it?
