That's what my Spurs mates told me. Him and Corluca, they got rid of both in Jan. SB, not saying we should fear them, just wan't one team cut loose from the rest of us. If they win tonight they won't and might even get some wind in their sails, not what we need. I'd like us to cut one team adrift every second round, here's to dreaming at least
C'mon Stoke, good chance for Bassong - ominious words from the match commentator indicating that Birmingham were relegated last season with 39 pts, a total that would likely keep them up this year.
Just watching Forset game against Bristol City. What happened to BC, was not long ago they were giving us stick and how big a club they were and must have about 50 fans at Forest! I thought it was Reading at first. How times change?
Me too, a little, is on TV - depressing stuff, would hate to see us back in that mix. Stoke vs. Wolves on live stream. Crouchie - yes!!!!!!!
Only half an eye on this game, but one observation, the Bristol City keeper, Dean Gerken, certainly looks the part making some great saves.
If you liked that then check out Jamie Ashdown against Soton today on the football league show (shudder ), some incredible saves!
Save the Villa game, who may or may not get drawn into the relegation mix, the results of our main contenders all went 100% in our favour, and for Bolton's game in hand, doubt if they will get much change at WHL. So tomorrow's game is almost a bonus for us - a point would be great, a loss, not the end of the world, a win, absolutely fantastic! We must make the Swansea, West Brom & Stoke games count, and pick up what we can against Man Utd, Spurs, Chelsea & Man City, although we do seem to play better against the top teams.
Their game in hand is v Villa. Spuds was the Cup, and they lost the rematch. May have to play Spurs in the League again, haven't looked....
Bolton's game in hand is Villa. That's another reason it'd be good getting Villa in the mix. Can't complain about too much today though. Our hardest game of the season out of the way tomorrow without losing ground against the Lancs clubs.
If you asked any fan would he take the same result against Man U as Bolton and BB got against Fulham and WBA, theyd have snapped your hand off. Thats the worst we can do now. were in the strange position of maybe having to shut up shop if we go 2-0 down tomorrow, our GD is like an extra point now and I dont think its worth risking that if we are more than one goal behind.
For all the talk about the poor standard in the Championship, did anybody think that Stoke/Wolves game was bad? I know we've been pretty atrocious this season at times, but I'd love to think if we survived we'd not be playing like this in the future. I spent a lot of the game idly contemplating just how much Sky money has gone towards overpaying average players so they can get one **** tattoo after another.
Actually thought the Sunderland-Spurs game were poorer. But I know what you're getting at and agree 100%. If we should try to emulate some team in the Prem I'd go for Fulham, both in the way they play and being a regular top half team with runs in Europe.
