    Stop being Silly Kipper.

    So after 5 seasons of Poch consistently bottling it, do you now accept the #spursy tag ?

  2. @Spurlock Pixie reckons Warnock will be offered the Spurs job. I'm betting him a twelve months' avatar wager that he won't. Get it written up, Bruv.

    Spurs is more than just Poch mate, the club is bigger than the man, it's been there for a lot longer. So 5 years is a little unfair... <whistle>

    It's really not in my nature as you well know. If Tobes hadn't (correctly) brought into it that the keeper was a Mackem I'd have left it. I've only seen the incident once but will be watching tonight and from what I saw first time around it was a stonewall red card. In fairness the referee then let us have a clear offside goal at the end so I'll take it.

    I can see that you're hurting Kips.

    Who do you think will replace Poch ?

  6. In that time, Poch has completed the long awaited NLPS ("North London Power Shift) and consistently finished top 4.

    Want to re-think this wum tactic before I put you on the "auto rinse" cycle, mate?

    Poch is just another in a long line of failures at Spurs. 58 years of failure in fact.

    Still, they glorify failure, so I can see why they worship Poch and Levy

    It's a bit early to be calling in the cavalry mate. Take no prisoners HIAG, remember the last scene of Butch Cassidy and come out all guns blazing fella <ok>

    You do realise you have to wait for Warnock to die before you cash that bet in HIAG.

    Possibly won’t be that long but still... you ****ed up.

    I'll not go through all the reasons but there's a long list of solid reasons why Newcastle fans hate Ashley that goes beyond the immediate lack of investment. As for a more ambitious manager I really don't see the point, our net transfer spending and wage bills will be in the lowest few in the league - we wouldn't countenance getting in a manager who wants any significant backing. What we need is a manager with good experience, who can cope with paltry funding and get the most out of the very limited playing staff we have. I don't see anyone else who would be getting more out of an essentially championship side than Benitez is.

    My main issue has been a reluctance to play any of our youth players (Longstaff was brought in due to the absences of Shelvey, Ki and Diame). They're probably mostly terrible but so are our first team in the main so he should give them more playing time.

    You ain't rinsing anybody Kipper.

    Also, an 'auto rinse' would mean that you would have nothing to do with it. You can't even pretend to get the better of somebody without ****ing that up too <laugh>

  18. The surprising fact is that Benitez has stuck with you this far. He must be seen as a god to the fans.

    Is he waiting for the club to be sold ?

    No way would you get a better manager than him, if Ashley is intent on ****ing about with the sale.

    If this continues much longer, Benitez will walk.

    What time frame do you want Kipper ?

    Since Poch took over at Spurs : 3 FA cups
    Since the PL started : 3 league titles, 8 FA cups

    What have Spurs won in that time mate ?

    @Hoddle Is A God after the way you’ve flogged your little tagger off about United this season, I assume you’re praying with every ounce of your being that Little Ollie doesn’t romp past your donkeys as they perform the mother of all capitulations?

    I’ll start digging you a nice grave, just to cover every eventuality mate.
