    At least they have history.

  2. I don't think that.

    I'm suggesting that Poch wasn't prepared to risk it.

    Poch certainly took it seriously. Certainly all the spurs stars were on show for that match..

  4. And it will become ever more important for them to cling to it, in the dark years ahead, Commie.

  5. Yes, I do believe he did take it seriously.

    I don't think they worked for it like they wanted it, however.

    So Levy can have another pay rise?

    It's all in their trophy cabinet. While the Spurs one is bare.

    are you certain though?

  9. The fact that Levy feels the club is becoming successful enough to award himself a pay rise is something that encourages me.

    Risk what, win a game or lose it? always better to lose it because it's good for moral <laugh>

  11. We will eventually win something. We're too good not to.

  12. Who knows?

    It's nothing more than a feeling that Poch and the players didn't go all-out for the FA Cup for fear of risking top 4.

    Regardless of any of that, however, I would rather the club secure top 4 than win the FA Cup and not get top 4. We've had a fantastic season, proving what a great club we are.

    I hope that Levy backs Poch's ambitions for the future.

    Is that like saying they got beat? if so there are a few games this season where they didn't work like they wanted it.
    Pity really, they could have won the league if they played like they wanted it :(

    Sounds like Poch has his doubts.

    Well losing in the cup didn't seem to help as your form nose dived after it

  18. I don't put the same emphasis on what Poch says in the same way that hack journos do, or third-rate wumsters. Poch's English is limited and he doesn't always express himself as well as he would like, and the hack journos (who have an anti-Spurs and pro 'Pool agenda) are quick to misinterpret him.

    I think that Poch is doing nothing more saying something that we would expect him to say - that he hopes that Levy will be brave enough to give him what he needs to push Spurs on to the next level. I don't read into it anything more than that.
