    Saints look so much better when they show attacking intent.

    First half the plan looked to be to sit tight and counter. 2nd half we went at them and they didn't like it.

    Sims' energy changed the game and a difficult decision for Ralph in 3 weeks how to include him in the squad. But he did more in 45 mins than Elyounoussi has done all season.



    Kevin Friend was, I thought, poor throughout.

    Of the very big decisions I thought he got the Walker-Pieters one right (no guarantee that Armstrong would've got there), Sissoko should've gone for headbutt and the Sims kick in the head is such a clear penalty I was already celebrating it being given before I realised it wasn't.

    Mo El plays with fear and the weight of the World on his shoulders, Josh was refreshingly brave and fearless from the moment he stepped on to the pitch today...

    They love a Gary-Rafa interview on MOTD.

    Yes, surely they could have done Ralph today?

    How the **** has Sissoko not got a red card?

    Kevin Friend is the epitome of “You’re not fit to referee.”

    Shocking refereeing. How can he judge what Redmond did warranted the same punishment as Sissoko?

    I honestly believe he hates us, we should do what some clubs do and tell the FA/PL that we don't want him to ref our matches.

    Did you think the Sims head kick was a penalty?

    Ok me too, seems like an obvious foul to me. No idea what he's doing with Sissoko either.

    Watching MOTD, Peters was only a yellow not a red, But he bottled the penalty and red card on sissoko..

    Watched the extended highlights on Sky Match Choice....as you are all saying...a game of 2 halves. We missed a couple of good chances before we scored...but luckily for us Spurs were sloppy with their second half chances. Our strength at the moment is that we can score in most games....keep doing that and you will win games.

    Took us a few years to get over the last time we did that, so perhaps we shouldn't.

    (and Clattenburg was right, Adam was a big time charlie twat!) <laugh>
