    Another good TEAM performance from the boys. Fantastic defensive display from the unit. Midfield worked hard.
    Very good so far. 4pts from possible 6. Not gonna sniff at that!
    Good to see players that wanted to work hard, play for each other, show some grit and get some rewards.
    All in all a great game for a 0-0, some good battles

    I disagree. A point at home to a rampant Spurs side (just look at their firepower and pace) that had scored on the road in every game this season, a second consecutive clean sheet and off the arse of the table, at least for now.

    More than happy with that and proud of the players to a man, all did their jobs well. Cesar, Fabio, Taarabt, Onuoha, Mackie, Derry and SWP the standouts for me, but all great. Shame SWP couldn't convert any of his chances, but did enough to keep his place.

    Onuoha looks like a player that gives a damn again.

    A draw today is a good result and one that keeps us still on track for the great escape. I believe!

    A vital point today - quite pleased to see some improvement in our play. Well defended but a touch too defensive for my taste. Anyway, we do need the points frome the likes of WH and Norwich....

    SWP made some amazing runs today, defended superbly, think he made with Adel, and had, our only chances of the game, he should have score one, but that performance don't deserve any criticism.

    To be honest, if you'd attacked anymore you'd have been playing into our hands. We've scored in every away game up until today because home teams were committing going forward which left us to counter, which we're pretty lethal at.

    Good result for you boys today, can't say I'm totally surprised I knew you had the abillity to frustrate us and I don't think either side deserved to win so a fair result.

    Considering Bale and Lennon have twice the pace of Derry and Nelsen that was an incredible defensive performance.

    Players ran themselves into the ground for Harry. Fitness looks massively improved.

    Woody and Uber have this spot on.

    Not many of our rivals will get much out of Spurs.

    We're playing as a unit, as a team, for each other and seem to have a plan.

    We'll get more attacking joy from lesser teams.

    Didn't see game due to work committments but been following on line......2 clean sheets on the trot against sides 3rd & 4th in league is good and 4 out of 6 points against 2 top sides...well thats a bonus. Just need a point or 3 from west ham next week and then the escape is well & truely on....

    Real positive to hear Sky commentators talking so positively about our performance, our work ethic and the variety of good battling performances across the pitch. All great things to take from the game for us.
    Great to see we've followed on from our Chelski performance and result.

    Agree. Draw is a fair result.

    Harry's first success at rangers is to have installed a hard work ethic. It's paying dividends and it's a relief to see. There'll be no great escape without belief and a desire to fight.

    Next, add the danger element.

    If you think a point at home at the position you are in is not good at all. its yet another 2 points lost and that is not good.If you were half way up the league i would agree but all these missed home chances are costly...

    Yes, he has, but how do you explain that Liverpool game?

    I don't often agree with Glenn Hoddle bug he was very positive about our chances from now. A good striker on loan and he thinks we'll be safe.

    That's good enough for me!

    well, they did the same to Sunderland, and after tomorrow, when they do it to ManUre, i think you don't have to wonder why it happened to us.

    SWR - were you watching the same game today? I thought SWP had a great game today, could have scored a couple goals and was excellent in his defensive duties. Looks like a totally different player in recent games, full of confidence. Also good inter-play with Adel.
