Spurf, old chap! I think I've been denied five points for the correct result. I believe you have added only two points: 33>35 (Son scoring).
I'm pretty sure I should be on 40 - perhaps you were subconsciously avoiding my company on that perch?
I'd refer my protest to VAR, but..........
so I'll rely on your wisdom and goodwill.

I have corrected it audrey. never made so many mistakes :emoticon-0111-blush. You have your rightful place in the league, apologies.
 
I was always quite impressed by Klopp - until this week! What a fuss! If ever we lose to them in the future, we should demand a replay of the game because an assistant ref gave a throw-in the wrong way. Ironically, I suppose, it is VAR that needs a review right now. We can agree on that. And move on.
So now we have a game against struggling Luton. Just the sort of game we have blown in the past. But I feel the momentum and the spirit we now have will ensure we fulfil all the optimistic predictions. To sing us on our way, we have the ditty below - Ragtime Cowboy Joe. Hard to find a decent recorded version of it. I rejected the Smurfs (I guess that's where you got your name from, Spurf?) and opted for the fun version with Cher - after all, my song is about Sonny. (Geddit?!)
Sorry that the version of the lyrics doesn't quite match the version on this clip, by the way.

Down in North-East London,
Where the Spurs men are,
And the latest guy to lead them
Is a shining star.
The greatest and the straightest
Man by far
Is a guy whose name you’ll know:
He got his fame from scoring.
Nearly every week.
After games he’s played,
He loves to smile and speak
To the pundits (past their peak)
Talking soft and low. :emoticon-0147-emo:

CHORUS:
He always picks
Cunning passes at an angle
And his tricks
Leave defenders in a tangle.
And of course
He was patient and he waited
In Kane’s shadow (gone to Munich!)
Now they’ve made him skipper truly.
How he’ll run
With a pass from Maddison! -
And look! the oppo fans are gone!
He's a runnin’, shootin’, killin’ Luton,
Feller-called-Son from South Korea,
Our own Heung Min
Our own Heung Min
Our own Heung Min Son! :emoticon-0147-emo:

Every other weekend
Loyal girls all go -
They beat it down to Tottnam
[All the locals know!]
And just to watch
His twinkle toes
'Cos he's a super star.
And they all start a-squealin’
In the Paxton stand –
Like a bunch of kiddies
In a grown-ups’ land!
We all know he’s gonna score
And help Spurs get four! :emoticon-0147-emo:

Prediction: Luton 0 Spurs 4 <applause><applause><applause><applause>
Scorers: Son, Bissouma, Johnson, Porro :emoticon-0115-inlov:emoticon-0115-inlov:emoticon-0115-inlov:emoticon-0115-inlov

Cheers, Spurf! <cheers><cheers><cheers><cheers>

Well done as always audrey. BTW my name came from combining Spurs with Surf. Surfing the Spurs net as we used to say.
Nothing to do with Smurfs

Just realised I’ve bloody done it again! Predicted Perisic to be the scorer in the NLD, less than 24 hours before he got the injury and now I’ve cursed Solomon.

I am on a horrendous roll. Half tempted to ask to be banned from the board to prevent further issues.
