    We come to the last game of the season with BajanSpur 1st with a 7 point lead, realistically anyone of the top 4 could still win it but they would probably need to be predicting a different result to the players above them. Topscorers this week OnlyOneDB, Spur of the Moment with 10 points each for an exact result prediction. Spur of the Moment has been in title winning form lately and could still make first division status or win the 2nd Division.
    The rest of us are playing for pride and to retain our present status. 9 failed to predict.

    It's been a great season for Spurs and for us in the league, thanks to all of you for predicting each week and making the game what it is. It looks as though we will have a new name on the Honours Board as the game goes into it's 8th season.

    Thanks guys for supporting this minor institution. <ok>

    You lot should ('should') be safe by mid-week. Everton are frighteningly bad and you have the home advantage; atmosphere should be incredible. If Newcastle do drop, they only have themselves to blame. You cannot follow on from an impressive run of 4 games without defeat by being held to a 0-0 draw against f'ing Villa!

    Right, so I need 30 points to take the title. If my maths is correct I need a massive capitulation of all predictors 1-10 and for me to get a spot-on 10-0 Spurs win. So......

    Newcastle 0 - 10 Spurs

    Kane
    Walker x2
    Vertonghen
    Chadli x2
    Eriksen
    Lamela
    Mason
    Dier

    OK. Well here goes for the last game of the season, and I couldn't resist the temptation to post a double whammy this week - :emoticon-0118-yawn::emoticon-0118-yawn:
    well, I won't be troubling your patience for a few weeks now, so it's something to keep you going........
    or to make you grateful for the summer break! :emoticon-0113-sleep:emoticon-0113-sleep

    First up it's one for the team: a "remix" of
    The Scaffold's 1967 hit Thank You Very Much,
    written by Paul McCartney's brother, Mike McGear. I'm indebted to SpursorSex for the idea (and the wording/spelling!)
    and to our team for providing the material.

    Sorry if the spoken list in the middle is a bit longer than in the original. But it was hard to leave anyone out!



    Sank you berry much to Pochettino,
    Sank you berry much, sank you berry berry much!
    Sank you berry much to our Hotshot Harry,
    Sank you berry berry berry much!
    Sank you berry much to Hugo Lloris, sank you berry much,
    Sank you berry berry berry much
    Sank you berry much to our Dele Alli sank you berry berry berry
    much.

    Sank you berry much to Jan and Toby, sank you berry much,
    Sank you berry berry berry much!
    Sank you berry much to Kyle and Rosie, sank you berry much,
    Sank you berry berry berry berry berry berry berry berry much!

    You don't know how much you all mean, you’ve played better than my dreams!

    Sank you berry much for - Son,
    Sank you berry much, sank you berry berry berry much!
    Sank you berry much for - Vorm,
    Sank you berry berry berry much.

    Sank you berry much for Christian Eriksen
    Sank you berry much, sank you berry berry berry much
    Sank you berry much for the Eric Dier and our... (*spoken*)Moussa Dembele, Erik Lamela, Kevin Wimmer, Ryan Mason,
    Kieran Trippier, Ben Davies, Josh Onomah, Harry Winks, Tom Carroll, Clinton Njie, Nabil Bentaleb……..eberryone! *

    Sank you berry much, sank you berry berry berry berry, berry berry berry berry much

    It’s been simply spiffing and true! Tottnam Hotspur, I love you!!

    Sank you berry much for playing this season sank you berry much,
    Sank you berry berry berry much,
    Sank you berry much for getting to Europe, sank you berry berry berry much.

    Sank you berry much for this Tottnam team
    Sank you berry much, sank you berry berry berry much.
    Sank you berry much for this Tottnam team
    (Getting slower) Sank you berry berry berry much!
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    And now for the song that has been in my head for some weeks. Can't think why - can you?!


    I Don’t Like Mondays

    (written by St Robert Geldof, went to No 1 in 1979 for The Boomtown Rats – one of whom was a neighbour of mine for some years!)



    The irritant chip inside my head
    Has switched to overload.
    And no-one's gonna see us lose today,
    We’re gonna beat the pesky Barcodes.
    And Rafa doesn't understand us -
    He always thinks that we are gonna fold.
    And he can see no reasons
    'Cause there are no reasons
    How often do you need to be told?!


    [Tell me why?] We played on Mondays!
    [Tell me why?] We played on Mondays!
    [Tell me why?] We played on Mondays!
    I want to shoot the whole day down!



    The Spurs machine it runs so clean

    As it moves through the football world.
    And van Gaal feels so shocked,
    Wenger's world is rocked,
    And their thoughts turn to
    Their own decline.
    2016 ain't a super scene,
    No, and they’ll both have to admit defeat.
    Not like other seasons,
    And there are no reasons -
    Why they can’t take the heat!


    [Tell me why?] We played on Mondays! etc



    All the play will stop in the PL soon -

    We want to show them what we can do!
    With Villa gone early; soon we'll be learning
    That the Barcodes will be going too.
    And when the HurriKane crackles,
    And the Toby tackles,
    And young Song puts Christian’s pass away

    And it’s been a good season

    Yes a really good season -
    What scoreline do we want today?!!!


    [You know why!]I don't like Mondays! etcetc



    Prediction: Barcodes 0 Spurs 3

    Scorers: Kane, Son, Alderweireld :1980_boogie_down::1980_boogie_down::1980_boogie_down:



    Cheers, Spurf! See you next season! And thanks for your efforts.
    <cheers><cheers><cheers>

    audrey, THANK YOU very much, thank you very very much.

    Great effort from you every week .

    If you put the seasons songs all together and added PNP's match commentary you would have an interesting book.

    Well done mate <ok>

    Thanks, Spurf! It's important for me that the songs are appreciated. If people get fed up with them :emoticon-0114-dull::emoticon-0118-yawn:, I promise to stop.
    In the meantime, I'm planning the release of a "Best Of" album. OK? :emoticon-0178-rock: Then maybe "Unplugged"? :emoticon-0138-think
    The book would also reveal my excessive optimism, I fear! :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Please don't stop your songs Audrey, they are the highlight of the thread. (no offence Spurf):emoticon-0100-smile The way you blend your words to fit the tune is absolutely brilliant and the wording is so clever. I have loved all of them but to single out one where the tune & words together were sublime was Gracie Fields Sally to Deli Alli. I'd love to know how long it takes you each week!
    Sank you berry much (loved that one, made the years roll away!) for all your songs & here's to next season<bubbly>
