Spurs fans love a good moan but it was bloody frustrating to watch when you've been brought up watching the silky skills of Hoddle and Gazza. The ball constantly being passed sideways and back. We need more creativity in midfield to unlock defences that come to White Hart Lane and park the bus. We have to find a solution to that. He has a point though the atmosphere was a bit shit yesterday but that's the fans being frustrated by what they are watching. I know I was. 70 minutes into a home game against a team you really should be giving a good hiding to. Remember, that the last home game was the three-nil loss to West Ham, some of us were feeling a bit deja-vu by then. I think they call that winning ugly. Certainly, not the most enjoyable game I've been to in a very long time at the Lane (thankfully, I missed the West Ham debacle).

Joe Hart dropped by City apparently. City obviously feel they can't afford any more mistakes.

Are You a Football Hipster?...http://www.theguardian.com/football/quiz/2013/oct/29/are-you-a-football-hipster



You scored 29 out of a possible 60


Nope. YOU'RE NO FOOTBALL HIPSTER! You like goals, goals, goals, pronounce Milan as Milan rather than Mee-lan, and quite frankly you're not really sure you'd recognise a false nine if one came up and shook you by the hand. You've got some work to do. Start of with a video of the 1991 European Cup final between Red Star Belgrade and Marseille and work from there.

Agreed. Sadly this is what the Nick Hornby generation has spawned. It is probably going to get worse before it gets better.

I think that was a league game Quids and it was three-nil with Lineker getting a hat-trick in '92. What you might be thinking of is a five-nil thrashing at the Lane in the League Cup with Clive Allen scoring a hat-trick in '87. I was at both games. Either of those results will do me thank you. ;-)

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
