    You sure ?? I thought Holte is the ref who did the 2019 CL final.

    < but have Spurs won the "big one" ?? >

    Credit to Nuno for batting away the "Going 1-0 down was good for us" Narrative

    ...although some subs would've been nice

    It's worth noting that after only averaging 9 attempts per game in the first 6 games that our last two have seen us having 17 v Villa and 14 today.

    At least watching us since September isn't making me wanna :emoticon-0113-sleep

    Coincidentally, both games had us play 4231 instead of 433

    And that is the story I'm sticking with, rather than suggesting that dropping certain players had anything to do with it

    Redknapps two main points were...
    1. We always sell our players and weaken our team.
    2. We were offered £130m for Kane

    Apart from the fact that

    1. we didn't sell kane and 2. we were offered £75m with £25m in add ons and that is not £130m no matter how you write it, Redknapp made great points <doh>

    Still upset because he sacked your dad? That's fine. Don't make up £130m bids, though. Prick.

    He makes some valid points but sounds incredibly bitter and antagonistic. His point about Levy listening to the last person he spoke to was particularly poignant. I think there’s been too much short-termism.

    But 130m? That’s bullshit. He’s a **** stirrer of a pundit, like the rest of them.

    Listen to the difference in the commentator's reaction to the goals.

    Yeah I agree with that.

    He did make a lot of sense with some of what he said but it came across in a very bitchy way.

    Erm, we were offered £130m. Not picking on you mate as you’re certainly not the only one questioning this. But, we were offered £130m for definite<ok>

    Scouseknapp is very anti Spurs and has been for years, partly because we sacked his dad, and partly because we have been a threat to the cosy little top 4 clique and his darlings Varpool. That said he makes some valid points, particularly about Levy. I can`t stand him, he is a shiete stirrer and a Pool loving mug.
