Firstly, I hope you are all well and I hope you all had a good weekend I would now like to congratulate Spurs, they could of and should of won 10-0. I would also like to quickly mention how great their fans were before the game in various pubs etc. Now, my trip to London. Had a great weekend as usual, London is clearly an amazing city and although i spent a small fortune it was a great trip. Until 13:30 today. 13:30 today - I have read many of the threads and to be quite honest it's ****ing embarrassment some of the excuse I've heard... 'we were a weakened team' ' the ref didn't get decisions right' 'we were down to 9 men'... etc etc.. What a load of BOLLOX. Firstly when we had 11 men we were getting battered, secondly, the ref didn't make many mistakes - the main one being Suarez diving to get a free-kick. We were simply dominated from the first minute and it was a ****ing embarrassment. Not one of our players turned up today, and when you see it live it is 10 fold worse than it is on TV. Adam was poor last week and today he was a joke, is he the worst tackler in the EPL? I would say yes. Quite simple the pedigree from where he comes from (lower league teams) is very apparent when he tries to tackle. I do think he was a good buy and his passing (at times) is phenomenal, but he seriously needs to get his basics right. I can't wait for Gerrard to come back and until Adam sorts it out, he is the one Stevie has to replace. Red card after 28 mins, unforgivable. Skrtel at RB...WTF. Seriously Kenny what is that about when we're playing the likes of Modric and Bale. Very very bad managerial decision. Play a ****ing RB at RB, if not play a player who has a bit of pace and has experience there. Suarez, what a ****ing joke. He had the odd bit of brilliance, but his ****ing attitude stinks. He isn't used to the EPL ref's and it clearly shows, lucky in my eyes not to get sent off. He needs to chill out and stop blaming the refs and his team mates, Henderson looked **** scared of him today. I'm not solely picking these 3 players out as everyone was terrible. What has angered me is how fans can make excuses to why we were beat (I realise some of you haven't )... We were simply outclassed in every position, and in my eyes that is not up for debate. At half time we were down 1-0 and to 10 men, everyone in the stands were reasonably positive and thought a double substitution was pretty much 100% certain (if not 1 sub for sure, as we had already used one). But not one sub????? **** that's surely a bad move. I go to most away games in London and have been to over 100 home games and also many European games. This was our poorest performance by a mile. I'm not taking anything away from Spurs, they should of smashed us 10-0. Against City or Utd it would of been 10-0. Anyway - I wore a Not606 tea-shirt for a laugh it said 'Skylarker The Not606 Peoples Champion' I was hoping I might get on the tele At the end of the day, we were ****ing smashed and everyone from Reina to Suarez had a stinker, that in itself is rare and I think behind the scenes things may not be as rosy as we think - why the **** are all are players ****ing arguing with each other????? Anyway lads nice to be back and I hope you're all well. But - Lets not dress this up, we were literally battered today, and it was worse in real life than on the tele (I watched the game as soon as I got back on TV). Next week is a vital match. Lots of love, Skylarker.
You deserve a medal for watching it again mate On a positive note.....er.....umm....ok i'll get back to you on that one Oh yeah....Lucas was alright and Stevie G's back soon Now don't ever go the match again you jinxing twat
Well I urge a trip to lucky charms-R-us before your next attendance I agree today was a complete **** up but we just have to rally together now. How we react to the last couple of results is vital over the coming month so if Kenny can turn this into a positive then it might be for the best in the long run as much as it hurts right now. Seems a long shot but win our next three and today will feel less significant. Yes I do realise who our next 3 games are Don't panic Mr Mannering
I may of come across very negative, but compared to this time last year I am extremely positive. I just felt the truth often goes missing on forums, and I as most people know say it how it is Controversial, maybe. But I love a good healthy bit of controversy I am sure Kenny, Steve and the gang will come down hard and make sure we put things right. I would say this could become a positive for the next 3-4 games, then we just push on from there.
No mate you're dead right that today was a ****in horror show from start to finish but I guess we just have to judge the team come the end of the year We're all hurting pretty bad tonight it's been one of those ****ty weekends...even my mates dog died this morning (long time fishing companion) Safe to say a positive reaction is required from the players now but if we get that then this result may just be a blessing in disguise here's hoping
I'm glad it's not just ****ing me then! Ok his set pieces are mostly good and he can pull off a "hollywood" pass once in 20 attempts but he has a turning circle of an oil tanker and his passing really pissed me off in the Stoke game last week. I liked the Spucas partnership last season and Spearing should play until Gerrard is back. I'm not one to have a dig at our own players but this bugs me. BTW Adam bought his son a Chelsea shirt with Lampard on the back....WTF.
Can't see any fault in this article... apart from the obvious spelling and grammatical errors ;-) Hope you managed to get some enjoyment out of your trip Oh and talking of witnessing bad performances, I went to the 3-4 against City some years ago. 3-0 up when Barton got himself sent off for swearing at the ref on the way off for half time and we still bloody lost.
Ensil may not be here, but I am Appalling punctuation and grammar aside, I agree with everything you say. It was an atrocious display. As soon as I saw Skrtel at RB, I feared the worst. We were crap to a man - worse than many displays under Hodgson last season. There has to be a marked improvement across the whole piece for the next PL game. Where do you stay when you're in London? I have a couple of mates down there and am there on business quite regularly. I went round to my football reporter mate's house on Friday night and we had a top knees-up. It had been his fiancee's birthday the day before, so I gave her a VERY special present - a full exposure of The Hammerhead! She knew of his fame, but had never witnessed a full mating display. She was afraid; very afraid.
Good article Sky, dont like it when we are hearing the excuses from some of our fans. We were basically well and truly battered KK gave them (Spurs) praise, hope he's learned from the errors HE made in this game. If we had battered a team and their fans were coming out with excuses like some I've seen we'd be laughing our b******s off Just saw above you went to Istanbul? Thas amazng mate, I had to put my Istanbul DVD on when I got back in from the pub lastnight just to cheer me up Still well donwn in the dumps, a great day yesterday was totally ruined. We need to be careful Wed night, Brighton arent a bad team you know P.S Shame you didnt get on the tele with your shirt!
"BTW Adam bought his son a Chelsea shirt with Lampard on the back....WTF. " I think he was taking him to the CBBC version of 'What Not To Wear'
I hope Stevie's going to hit the ground running when he gets back. Surely at least the bench for Brighton please kk!
With Adam now on a suspension Gerrard will surely come in. That is one plus about the red card for Adam.
I usually stay around the west end - then make my way to whatever game I'm going to from there. After a good night out of course
Do you stay in a hotel, or do you have very rich mates. I generally stay in Hornsey. I didn't get a for a mention of The Hammerhead. You're slipping!
No we stay in hotels mate, I've got some friends in Deptford and New Cross but I prefer staying more central to be honest.
