Great result for Spurs last night. I'm very pleased with our performance. Paul Robinson made a couple of superb saves to keep his second clean sheet in a row and his confidence is definitely returning. Overall we were the better team even though we were down to ten men after 20 minutes after another very poor refereeing decision.

I thought Arsenal's young squad were excellent in their grit and determination to pick up a win at Blackburn too and I want them in the semis please and Arsene Wenger can pick who he likes.

Having said that I think our recent improvement despite quite a few injuries in the squad can be measured by our performance against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium this coming weekend, which I feel will be our toughest game so far this season.

Usually no a Lampard fan at all, but thought he was very nice after the match about Crouch's sendin off.


He just went insane for a second as far as I'm concerned, it was a ludicrous "tackle"!


Oh well, not that bothered. Saw the Arsenal goals on telly lst night, those kids can play!

I would simply say this, don't hold your breath!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crouch's "tackle" was appalling but he'd been fouled twice from behind by Mikel in the build up to it and was obviously incensed. If the ref had spotted Mikel's infringements in the first place it wouldn't have happened. Still no excuse for such an appalling lunge though.

Atila, I agree that Malbranque's tackle was far worse than Zakora's innocous challenge and was a sending off rather than a booking. It hasn't been a good week for our refs but I do think that Howard Webb is the best this country has to offer and fully deserves his call up to Euros.

I'm very happy with the draw against Arsenal in the semis but I certainly do not want a repeat of the aggregate score from last year. I fully expect us to do better this time around, no matter what team Arsene Wenger decides to pick.

And as for the weekend... bring it on.

I don't think so. I think we'll be lucky to get a top six considering the bad start we've had. At the moment I'm just looking for continued improvement.

Milan seems to be the town to visit... Would say the gunners have the hardest draw, and don't dare pretend you're happy with it. Still, I think over the 2 legs they can do it.


Don't hold out much hope for Celtic against Barca!


Arsenal 2 - 2 Tottenham

Aston Villa 2 - 1 Man. City

Bolton 1 - 0 Birmingham

Fulham 1 - 2 Wigan

Liverpool 3 - 2 Portsmouth

Middlesbrough 1 - 2 West Ham

Reading 2 - 0 Sunderland

Man. United 2 - 1 Everton

Newcastle 2 - 1 Derby

Blackburn 1 - 2 Chelsea

The way we are playing at the moment teams should be afraid of us and not the other way around. AC have only one outstanding player, namely KAKA, but on his own against the might of the Arse he has little chance to shine. Italian opposition have not done well against us over the years and that form will continue. AC haven't exactly set Serie A alight with Kaka this season so bring 'em on!!! If we stay injury free, AC will be fearing us, trust me.

To be honest, I don't think any team at this stage will be scared of any other team. I shall, believe it or not, be cheering the arse on in this round, I shall even be hoping for Chelsea, Man U, and Celtic to come through.


I have to admit, I don't know too much about Inter at the moment, but when it comes to Europe, I always feel reasonably confident with Rafa, he just seems to get it right in this competition...


Man U and Chelsea have it easy!

Speaking the truth I call it, I really don't think we should fear anyone, and I mean anyone. Manure are a better team than AC and they couldn't beat us. So bring on the ageing AC Milan.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
