This Weekend's Fixtures (13/14 Feb).

[Niall_Quinn]

Our game at the dump against them in a few weeks time is going to be massive assuming we pick up points against United & Swansea.

Well let's try to avoid undoing all our work when we face utd. That's the immediate task at hand, if you ignore the barca sideshow.

Our game at the dump against them in a few weeks time is going to be massive assuming we pick up points against United & Swansea.

We're due a league win against them, aren't we? (Mind you, by that logic we should have beaten Chelsea in the league about 2 years ago!)

Nevertheless, it will be huge. I just hope Wenger really does his homework on them- looks at how teams have beaten them this season and how we can exploit that.

[Kano]

Carragher arguing that City should be thankful for the penalty decision.

[Niall_Quinn]

Why aren't they talking about Kompany? Didn't they say it would all be different when he came back? Apparently it's DeBrownstuff they miss now. And then it will be Aguero when he gets injured again. Pure bullshit. There's no excuse for a team that has invested so much in the team. They are a laughing stock so why don't the pundits have a pair of balls between them and just say it?

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Leicester beat them a few weeks back and really should have turned them over in the cup but for (yet again) another shambolic refereeing performance in favour of Spurs.

The only thing is, they appear to be winning games by the odd goal, it's not awe-inspiring, and they've been incredibly fortunate with injuries. Their luck will run out. Mark my words.

I dunno about that. I really hate saying this but they've got a Man Utd under Ferguson like quality about them with how they grind out wins. They were lucky with a goal today however their goal difference figure of 27 which is far above ours and both Leceister's and City's tells it's own story about how dominant they've been.

I'm with Selassie above .......... I'm genuinely scared. :upset:

The only hope is either the Europa cup fucks them up or an injury to Kane/Ali.

[Özim]

Hasn't it got to the stage where it's beyond suspicious they don't have the assistance of replays? Why the hell not. What with the spray can and the posturing and yard marking, it takes a full minute for the whole free kick ritual to unfold. Nobody seems to mind the time wasting that goes no. But apparently a 4th official taking a quick look at a replay would delay the game. What with the spectacular failure of goal line tech, which hasn't got a single decision wrong to date, you have to wonder why these strange decisions are still allowed to influence results.

Well yes I agree with this but it seems they don't want to take that route for some reason or other, so the refs have to deal with it as best they can, which can't be easy to be fair to them, they are bound to make mistakes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man utd (a), Swansea (h).

Swansea (h), West Ham (a) before the league game against them.

Plus the two Europa League games for the Spuds against Fiorentina, our game against Barca and the two FA Cup ties also. Basically, there is a lot to happen before that match.

[Niall_Quinn]

Well yes I agree with this but it seems they don't want to take that route for some reason or other, so the refs have to deal with it as best they can, which can't be easy to be fair to them, they are bound to make mistakes.

Well they could help themselves by abiding by a simple rule that dictates they have actually seen the incident and are sure in their own minds a foul has taken place. No way Calttenberg could have been sure of that one and nobody would have slagged him if he came out and simply said he couldn't see it. Instead he assumes. That's where the problems start, when refs imagine what might have happened rather than actually seeing it.

Yep, we can definitely beat them and at their ground, assuming things stay as they are then it's going to be a huge game. I rate this Spurs team above the Modric/Bale one, they don't really have any weak areas IMO and they have a deep squad. I personally don't think they will be collapsing like their previous teams, something about this team that tells me they are in it for the duration.

[selassie]

Well let's try to avoid undoing all our work when we face utd. That's the immediate task at hand, if you ignore the barca sideshow.

The United game will be tough, but we are more than capable of winning and at their ground. We need to step up now, no room for error now as we're deep in a title race.

[Niall_Quinn]

Carragher is a bone fide mega twat.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Welbeck. :bow:

[Kano]

Sky showing the final score at Arsenal as 1-1 :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spurs magnificent, Arsenal lucky wankers.

[Kano]

Sky in full downer mode about Arsenal.

[Niall_Quinn]

That Orient goal clip was just like Rosicky in his prime. Cracking goal.

[adzzzbatch]

Sky showing the final score at Arsenal as 1-1 :doh:

They wish!

Cunts.

[selassie]

Carragher is a bone fide mega twat.

He hates Arsenal, he's an utter cunt.

[Kano]

Cazorla should be back for the Spuds game, maybe even the Utd game if we're lucky.

[selassie]

Cazorla should be back for the Spuds game, maybe even the Utd game if we're lucky.

I personally think Santi or even Jack will make a big difference to our team in Central Midfield.

[Xhaka Can’t]

I personally think Santi or even Jack will make a big difference to our team in Central Midfield.

Translation: We'll have a central midfield.

[Ollie the Optimist]

its impressive to see that telling the world you will sack your manager in the summer and his replacement is confirmed, doesn't help get a bunch of mercenaries to win football matches.

Who knew?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

MotD2 is on at 10pm. :popcorn:

[AFC Leveller]

Spurs look good, they are solid and very organised. They just keep getting results and their confidence must be high.

A gooner mate of mine said of we swapped managers right now we'd the league...

[GP]

Your mate sounds like a cunt.

It really hasn't made much of a difference. They've been ropey since the season began.

[Kano]

Your mate sounds like a cunt.
:lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sherwood and Murphy in the studio. :lol:

Must be all those trophies Pochettino has won.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

If Ramsey hadn't lost his brain, that was the time to shoot.

Why have we been lumbered with Motson?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Motson does say K*nte though. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I've changed my view, Mahrez dived.

[Kano]

Never a pen for Mahrez :lol:

Contact does not equal pelanty, no matter what TalkSport may tell you.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simpson. :haha:

:wave:

Goodbye.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Instinctive Theo. :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

That was a great assist from Bif.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Why would that have been irony?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wasilewski. :bow:

Deserves a medal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WELBECK!!!!!

[Munchies]

WELBECK!!!!!

:bow:

[Kano]

Welbz :bow:

[Munchies]

Spurs getting these wins is sickening :sick:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gamesmanship when it suits.

[Kano]

Nice to hear Vardy earnt the right to dive.

Honest English lad.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vardy gamesmanship yes.

Alexis gamesmanship no.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not intended to hurt him...:rolleyes:

Same old bollocks.

[Kano]

Ramsey more at fault than Drinkwater for his reaction :lol:

[Kano]

Mahrez dive doesn't even merit a post-game mention.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Atkinson apparently saw the Drinkwater tackle and didn't deem it worthy of any action. :haha:

[Kano]

It was just a reducer. 80 minutes too late.

[GP]

That was a great assist from Bif.

He's a top player.

[Niall_Quinn]

Don't let Motty have any sharp instruments. Poor sod.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It was just a reducer. 80 minutes too late.

Letting him know he was still there.

[Niall_Quinn]

Sherwood is confusing professional sport with the grubby shit he used to get up to on a pitch.

[Niall_Quinn]

So let's sum it up for all the kids out there.

Yes - dive in the box.
Yes - put the leg breaker in provided you don't intend to hurt the victim.


Glad we have that straight.

[Niall_Quinn]

Atkinson apparently saw the Drinkwater tackle and didn't deem it worthy of any action. :haha:

So he should be instantly sacked as a ref because he's incompetent and dangerous.

[Xhaka Can’t]

He's a top player.

Yeah....His wife is pretty pissed about that.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Just catching on the MOTD highlights .............................. "Vardy has every right to run into his leg" ..... FUCK OFF SHERWOOD. I remember Pires being pilloried for a similar thing against Portsmouth by the entire media. But I suppose he's a dirty foreigner. :rolleyes:

And then Murphy has a go at Alexis ......

I fucking hate BBC pundits.

[dostoy]

The luck the Spuds are getting these days is really frustrating.

They hardly have any injuries and then they get a penalty when the ball does not even touch Sterlings hand or arm at all, away from home.

It cannot last, very soon their luck will turn bad.

[Özim]

Mahrez dive doesn't even merit a post-game mention.

No because it was a foul.

I hate them as much as any Arsenal fan and they got lucky with the Penalty decision but Spurs weren't lucky yesterday in the grand scheme of things.

They went their and did a number on City. I've said this a few times now but Spurs are the genuine article IMO, the way Pochettino has built that team is admirable and I think they will be challenging right until the end.

[Globalgunner]

Just to say. Toure is a fkn liability in the City midfield these days. Loses the ball constantly and can hardly move at more than jogging pace. I suspect Pep will have him out of the door even before he arrives in the summer. Hate to use a common adage about certain players, but I suspect he is closer to 35 than 32, which means brother Kolo is probably 37.
you can lie all you want but you cant cheat time.
