Luckily he was not on form today!

Fell asleep in MOTD this evening and woke the find deja vu, before realising it was the Boro Millwall match.


Capacity crowd I see at the Riverside (twinned with the Emirates), 35,000 (although for some reason it was recorded as 15,377


Similarly there was also a sell out at the Emirates, recorded as 60,079 when the ground holds 60,361 so 282 unsold seats which is a shame for such a big club

Week 23 results...


LG - 5 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 8 pts

RC - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts

SC - 5 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 8 pts


DR - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts

JL - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts

MM - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts


Mx - 5 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 5 pts

RD - 2 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 5 pts

OT - Played a maxxi = 5pts

PD - Played a maxxi = 5pts


EP - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts


AM - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts


?? - 2 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 2 pts



Stay tuned, the FA Cup knock-out draw will be finalised after Wednesday's Boro v Chelsea game...

Bale's excellent form is a double edge sword for Spurs' fans, he could get them into the Champions League but will he still be there next season?...can't see Madrid or Barca not going for him this summer, esp Madrid as it's 'let's elect a new President' time again...
Opposing fans keep trying to wind up Spurs supporters with that kind of talk. Daniel Levy would strike a very hard bargain for any club wanting to buy Gareth Bale. He's currently on a four year contract, he likes the club, he's playing well, he's happy. If we can qualify for the Champions League and we get another couple of good players in I think he'll stay at least another season with Spurs. There is of course still a chance of glory this season in the Europa League and that would be a very nice little bit of icing on the cake if we were to win that. Anyway, Hammers dealt with. Gooners up next and that is never an easy fixture. COYS!

Bale only has to look at how things have turned out for Luka Modric at Real Madrid to see that sometimes the grass is not always greener.

I think Andre Villas Boas should also take a lot of credit for Bale's current form. He's come in and breathed new life into the club. At the end of last season we lost Modric, Van Der Vaart and Ledley King. Effectively the spine of the team. Not to mention new signings needing time to bed in. Change in footballing philosophy too. We've had our only two recognised strikers out injured or away on Africa Cup Of Nations duty at one time or another and we've coped without them. We're now scoring and winning games in the last few minutes instead of losing them. We're unbeaten in 2013 and now up to third. Things are looking good and I'm well happy. Harry Who?

Why not, he's now copying Ronaldo's free kick technique, even the pre-kick step backs and puffing his cheeks...just needs to work on his tan more.

Was AVP ever doubted by objective observers?


The same core of Chelsea players have played when they feel like it and ejected every manager since mourinhio. Benitez is latest one to give them his mind and feel their wrath


Said it before but screw them and the egos they rode in on


Ideal for me this season is spurs and arsenal get CL spots at expense of Chelsea. Benitez is a good man but he will be out of that cesspool club regardless.

Passing a person reading the Standard yesterday - headline - "Arsenal have ?120m" .... ? What was the detail behind the headline (did anyone read it) - did it put to bed the myth that Arsenal dont have money to compete?

    • 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
