    But why? Why not in your head say were getting 3 points? Tottenham have been decimated by injuries and illness to first team players and we're on an amazing run. A draw would feel like a loss.

    Because It hasn't taken place yet so I can't know that we're getting 3 points.

    Surely if we draw there's a positive still.

    Right now, Spurs seem there for the taking, especially if they play like they have recently.

    We'll just have to see how they come out tomorrow.

    Might be worth treating yourself to a single month of TNT Sports this Jan. They've got us on for the next three Prem fixtures in a row.

    Do they do a free 1 month trial by any chance? :bandit:

    We should be able to beat them, however we must be wary of their attacking players. They are leaking goals but are also the 2nd highest goal scorers in the league this season.

    If we take our chances and keep it tight at the back we should be good. Just got to be aware that, like us, they can score 3 against Liverpool

    That is insane to me but really shows the injuries and illnesses they have at the moment.

    12:30 kick off aswell so this could either make or break the weekend.

    Kelly will start at CB.

    It will be a 4-3-3 I would imagine.

    Just go for it today like we did at Manu.

    I don't think Newcastle need to chase the win personally. Just try and get control of the game and take the opportunities when they present themselves.

    Do exactly what we did against Manu. It works and we can do it.

    At least Spurs (and TV pundits) can have their excuses lined up ready.

    If they win, then it's because they are a top team and played well.

    If they lose it's because of injuries and illness.

    Who do we have playing directly in front of Hall?
    I think we'll be good.
