So would you agree that it is yet another example of a wum **** up that has come back to bite HIAG on the arse ?

You are judging the old HIAG by his former standards, Pix.

This thread was started by the new HIAG.

I didn't know how this tie would turn out, any better than anyone else. If we hadn't lost Alli to his stupidity, I believe we could have turned the tie round. But who could have predicted that Alli would have lost the plot and get sent off for trying to break another player's leg? You won't know this, but his stupidity has been roundly condemned on the Spurs board. You won't find a single Spurs fan who will try to justify what he did.

How is this a wum thread?

I genuinely want to know. If you can point out to me why you think it's a wum thread, I can work harder, on future threads, to try to ensure that they are not perceived as wum attempts.

Roofer's sound tbf. The only decent Swansea fan on here. I doubt he'll return the compliment but that's part of his charm <laugh>

I've always loved Roofie, mate. Even on those few occasions when he's gone rogue and turned on me.
 
So the team going strongest in Europe bar the oil sheiks is the managerless champions...


There's a sentence I never thought I'd type <laugh>

We were trounced by one of the best teams in European football in the last 16 of the CL.
Spurs were beaten by everyone in the CL and didn't make the last 16, and then went out of Europey League to a team of part-timers from Belgium

I did anticipate that reply, G4E.

You are correct, that Bayern is, by far and away, a better side than Gent. But you know how this works. We took Chelsea apart, not so long ago, ending their unbeaten run in the Prem, and yet we struggled against Wycombe Wanders ffs!

I say again, that if Alli hadn't got sent off for his act of madness and stupidity, I believe we would have turned this tie around. Instead, we played most of the match with 10 men, and ended up getting a draw. Is 2-2 under those circumstances a worse result than 1-5 against Bayern? No, not in my opinion.

And that is my honest opinion. I do not think any less of you for taking a different opinion. Indeed, I am genuinely interested in hearing your justification for that.

Please, accept the spirit in which I offer to enter into this debate, and do not simply write off my comments in a series of the usual non sequiturs. I am genuinely trying to engage you lads in a serious debate.

We drew at Wembley - a ground that foreign teams love to come and play at. It's hardly the kind of capitulation that we're likely to see at your place, on your own turf, when Bayern pay a visit, Pix. Let's keep this in perspective.

Yes, this is a dark day for THFC, but I'm betting that there is a darker day ahead, at The Library.

I'm not wumming, mate - that's all behind me, as you know. I'm expressing my honest opinion.

Neither of our teams have covered themselves in glory, but let us not pretend that there aren't levels of decrepitude. That would be beneath both of us.

God forbid that anyone's knob should make contact with the roof of your mouth, mate. Or your tonsils!

<laugh>
Yeah, I know! That's the kind of stupid **** that the old HIAG would have come out with. Not me. I've changed mate.

Power to your palate, Roofie, old bean!

Forget the waffle mate.

Is the 'new' HIAG prepared to admit that the 'old' HIAG is a stupid **** for leaving himself open for complete ridicule, for trying to wum Spurs' superior North London neighbours, Arsenal, in europe.

Yes or No ?

Spurs have been no worse than certain other teams with greater recent European experience than us, CFC.

I'm not saying that I'm proud of Spurs tonight - because I definitely am not - but let's keep a degree of honesty in this debate.
