That feels crap... blowing a two goal lead is bad enough but to them it's gutting. To get sucked into their crap makes it all the worse.

-----------------------------

possibly going off on one..... but....

I hope someone in the club gathers a dossier of opposition comments, refereeing decisions (or lack of), a copy of the draw and media commentary and hands it to the FA, with a suggestion that maybe they could have stepped up and possibly appeared to level the play field for everyone.

Opposition comments around who they'd prefer to win invites league integrity queries
Leicester have undoubtedly had the rub of the green on some very big calls... and not just on their games
4 Monday night games in a row, not allowing Tottenham to put pressure on Leicester. Didn't Sky decide those timeslots.... hmmm, don't Sky have a betting agency too?
The media commentary has been horribly one sided, not much you can do about it but I'd highlight in anyway.

This isn't Tottenham specific, this is a league issue
We should take all those comments stick it in the changing room and use it next season to spur us on to the title

Walker proved today that he just can't deal with pressure.

He was awful, could have got sent off and went on to have a nightmare, he doesn't have the mentals.
Said ages ago that it's very hard to do really big things with players like this. He's totally batshit and I have to give it to him for reigning it in as much as he has the last few months tbf. He's come on leaps this season but the ole batshit does like to play a little peek-a-boo doesn't it.

Can't afford it for where we want to be.

This was our first tilt at it.


Dont be ridiculous. We would look utterly pathetic, it'll be worse than trying to get a replay because of the lasagne thing.

We gotta suck it up and come back again next year.

I will such it up, thoroughly bitterly, but I agree with not_tenthagain, it would be nice to be playing on a level playing field. How many times have we been in a position to grab some glory and had to to 'suck it up'?

Is Trippier injured? Think he should come in against Southampton. Walker done ok but seemed a bit of a liability today tbh.

Anyone watching MOTD in a bit to get even more pissed off with what they've got to say. Probably got more footage of our foul play and get us in more shit? Hope Shearer's not on, he's a cock.

No chance. A wank festival over Leicester, I'll pass

Nope (unfortunately or unsprisingly or depressingly or shamefully)

They are friends, I'm sure Ranieri got lots of phone calls from managers tonight. People seem to forget this was a derby between two clubs and sets of fans that pretty much hate each other. Of course Chelsea gave 110%. It was bringing on Hazard that changed the game from them. Hiddink did us a favour in the first half by not playing him. I'm sure Ranieri was chuffed to bits to see him come on. You can't be bitter about a team giving everything. Now if they'd rolled over on the last day that would have been a different matter.

Damn right. I never want to go back to the days of Adebayor and Paulinho ducking out of the way of a free kick. I want to see players who care as much about Spurs as I do, and would fight to their last breath for the Lillywhite shirt.

True, they looked to fuck up as many Chelsea players as they could in the end because they are like us, fans of Spurs


Kinda loved it really as long as it's just a 1 off

Sums it up.

All teams apart from the 5 below them have been bending over the last 2 or 3 months

Yeah, it fuckin stinks. Not bothered about Leicester winning it, bothered about what's gone on with other teams and refereeing!!

Did anyone tell our players we'd already qualified for the champions league so there was no risk of getting europa through fair play?

I like Walker and think he has had a good season

That said, I would'nt shed any tears if he lost his place at RB to Trippier
