    I just hope that none of the English teams bring crushing humiliation to the reputation of the EPL ... failure to get out of the group stage for instance ...

    Good luck to all <ok>

    Spurs should accept the EL as their level and embrace it.

    They won't win the CL so might as well, eh?
    They were nailed on favourites for it last year if I recall correctly. It went well too.

    I do hope that Spurs make a fight of it and don't humiliate themselves - will they win a game ?

  6. I'm overjoyed at our group.

    This is what we as fans want to see!

    The idea that Spurs would win the CL is ridiculous, so we've got nothing to lose. Let's go for it!

    No one will be expecting us to get out of that group, so the pressure is off Poch and the lads.

    Personally, I think we have a good chance of finishing second.

    By the way, please visit my thread on the GC forum, in which I offer a very sensitive appraisal of Celtic's chances in the CL.

    We certainly won't get ****ed in the CL this year - but Spurs might do, and then we may revisit some of those amusing posts by Hiag about being "soiled"

  9. Ah, see, that's a real shame.

    I was hoping that you'd resist the temptation to plagiarise my genius, mate.

    True, but then I suppose you did say that 'football isn't about trophies'

    Called it earlier @Skylarker. Told you that was HIAG on Talksport <rofl>

    There is a whole library of HIAG's quotes that will come back to haunt him when Spurs get knocked out of the CL. :)

    Apoel they will probably get a draw but the rest? Europey cup here we come!
    Ps. Please don't match us against plumbers and postmen again.

  13. None of that would change the fact that Arsenal embarrassed themselves and England for 20 long seasons.

    Few will be upset that Arsenal's days in that elite competition are over.

  14. I'd love for Spurs to win trophies, but I'm not so deluded as to believe that we'll win Europe's elite completion.

    Or do you think we will?

    Let's talk about embarrassing! Spuds get into Europe in the easiest group since Beethoven, get ****ed off then wander blindly into The Europey cup to get dry humped by plumbers and postmen.

    Ps. Remind us again how that went for you Spuds Bell?

    Hardly dawning for the bald fat mummy's boy who lives in his mummy's attic as not to embarrass his parents. Social services says it's a good thing for him to live out his wasted life on a football forum.

    Mate I won't plagiarise your posts, I will just requote them so we can again see your pain at being soiled, and then see if you get soiled again :)

    I hope English teams go as far as possible so they will be tired and making line up decisions they don't necessarily want to so we can sneak a point or two off them in League ... Good Luck .
