    It's gonna sound like Boodison at half time unless things pick up. Atmosphere is getting toxic.

    We don't even look like creating let alone scoring. Nothing even remotely positive to say about this.
    There has been no response to Sunday at all

    I was pleased at first that we were pressing a lot more tonight. But why is it we can't beat the opposition press but they beat our press easily. Perhaps they are just better than us....

    Outside of their right side, both Edwards and Porro, we more or less man for man have superior players than Sporting everywhere else on the pitch yet this turgid bollocks Conte’s instilling is sucking the life out of us. **** knows what happened to him over the summer, completely lost it.

    Gonna be a ton of boos at HT and it’s fully deserved, even if booing ain’t my cup of tea.

    I’m gonna get slated for this but I can’t see Spurs fixing this without a change of manager.

    This is as bad as anything we saw under Nuno or Jose

    Ben Davies just about the only one to finish the half in credit. At least he always looks to be positive.

    I don't like booing but 4 attempts in 45 minutes is appalling football.

    None of them really testing Adan either.

    It’s a shambles at the moment, really is.

    Quite glad I’ve moved to Devon, I’d have been there tonight otherwise.

    We've had 4 manager in 3 years ... surely we need to Give Conte some time to build a team?

    Tremendous stuff from the lads there.

    This is more like the Spurs we've all come to watch and hate.

    Reminds me of the not so distant old days.

    Keep it up lads, we are all so very pleased.

    I just cannot see the point of booing your own team especially in the first half. How can that possibly help them? As its the managers tactics your blaming for the poor recent form why boo the players? It surely can't help them, can it?

    Genuinely don’t know what the club do but the team is on a downward slope and worryingly the manager doesn’t seem to have the answers.

    Missing Kulu is big but that doesn’t explain the issues in defence or midfield.

    It’s the players at fault as well as the manager. Nobody deserves any credit from that half

    I didn't go on Sunday or tonight for money reasons.
    To go on my own would have been £50-55 for a ticket (plus booking fee), £13.50 travel, £3.50 for a programme (£5 for tonight) plus whatever for a drink and snack.
    That's about £77-82 per game without any food or drink.
    The bare minimum you expect is watchable football and by any description the last 3 games have not be watchable let alone entertaining or exciting.
