What a strange feeling to win a game 1-0...but not like the Mourinho 1-0 by parking the bus but more like front foot football but being sensible at the back.

Probably last saw it with prime Poch side.

So much credit has to go to Radu & Gray

Makes sense if the yellow is given for stopping a counter attack but didn't actually do so.
It's because once the advantage has been played Lucas could have scored, stopped a goal or affected the game in hundreds of different ways which can not be cancelled out so if they are going to issue a second yellow it has to be immediate. With only serious foul play negating the above.

Love how Liverpool want new rules now where VAR can issue second yellows.

I personally think they should be able to issue and cancel second yellows but not because an incident happened to us (although we did have that crazy game where VAR ordered the ref to give a red card so they could then overturn it and give a yellow as they didn't want the player getting away with no caution, can't remember the match)

Here's a little something I picked up on when decisions didn't go their way

Slotsgobwatch: To the 4th official..........."All the time, All. The. Time'
Slotsgobwatch: To the 4th official..........."Again. Again'

And that's without the absolute ranting when we scored.

So, Liverpool unhappy with the referee because he failed to send Bergvall off (and let's face it, even though the first wasn't a yellow, the second one probably was) and again when a foul wasn't given in their favour plus who knows what else.

Spurs fans unhappy because the referee is on the take. haha

So if the ref was on the take, fuck me he's even shit at that.
Double bubble mate.


Paid off from both teams.

Ive been a critic of Ange but if you didnt enjoy that or think we played well.....then WTF??

I got a last minute ticket last night as had meetings booked in London tomorrow morning so was travelling down from Warrington today. After going to the Newcastle match on Saturday with my mate (not a bad performance despite the result) I was in two minds whether to go tonight - thinking we might get walloped. So glad I did. Atmosphere in the safe standing area in South Stand was buzzing. Up the fucking Spurs!! 😃😃

I must admit I don't think we played that well. We looked ok but Liverpool were really off colour and made a lot of mistakes. Solanke had a good game and did really well for the goal. I don't understand the hype around the goalkeeper being really good with the ball at his feet.
Okay Jason 🙄

Shouldn't you be manning the phones at The Samaritans with that kind of positive attitude?

I've worked it out! Alfie as in Alfie Whiteman? I get you're upset and now down as 5th keeper but cheer up mate.

Jamie Redknapp either hates spurs these days or is depressed as he’s no longer porking Louise or both but his punditry has gone downhill, could also be because he’s being forced to wear sketchers.
He's only ever not hated Spurs when his dad was the manager, the fact he gets wheeled out at times as a rep of Spurs on Sky is laughable. But I suspect the other two issues you mention are constantly on his mind

What a result! Incredible under the circumstances.

Really starting to love this new batch of players:

Gray, Spence, Bergvall, such quality and maturity beyond their years. Dragusin was a monster too.

Big Dom, proper striker and such a grafter.

Kinsky - smitten already. What an impressive debut. Kid looks special.

Have some doubts on Ange but loving this current siege mentality he's instilling. Winning something under him would be special.

Just a few thoughts-
For some reason I’m really hoping for Ange to get his cup and stick it to the doubters and start pulling his team together now.
Seen a change just in players mentality last two games.
New keeper making a whole defence better isn’t a strange thing to happen.
Next few games will show whether we’re getting the idea that we’re a better team than results so far.

Felt like the defense trusted the new keeper a hell of a lot more than Vic, Foster and Austin combined? Young lad seemed very assured and made pretty good decisions on playing out or playing it long.
Bit tough on Vic, he’s been pretty solid with possession and trusted by the defence. Great debut and looks like a fantastic talent.

Sky again discussing why Lucas was not sent off. What about in 1984 I saw Hansen and Lawrenson twice upending Chris waddle . Should have been penalties but I am not bitter!!!
not forgetting pedro Mendes with that goal 6 feet over the line v Man Utd.
