The Premier League Thread

[Joe!]

They were showing his reactions all game, but they didn't show his immediate reaction to the last goal. The only time I wanted to see his face. The booing was funny though.

...and here's the video of Tan booing, before storming off. Brilliant.

The quenelle thing? Yeah, that's true.

It's a anti-Semitic gesture, performed by the outstretching of the right arm, with a flat hand pointing downward.

It then involves touching the right shoulder with the left hand.

It's been quite prominent in France of late, due to a French comedian performing it and peddling derogatory Jewish jokes often.

It seems to be a really big deal in France as a Twitter search for "Anelka" will show you. Anelka is friends with the guy in question, who is undeniably antisemitic, so he knew where it came from. French politicians are weighing in with appropriate soundbites (if they are anything like British ones anyway). Not sure what the FA will do, could be sticky.

Borini was taken off owing to illness...he has apparently collapsed thereafter, and an ambulance is on the way. Hope for the best there.

Poyet says he is ok, just a precaution.

It all went wrong when they brought on the guy from the Planet of the Apes ...

Am I the only one who is quite pleased for Tom Huddlestone? He's a very good player and quite underused at Spurs. Nice goal, plus a nice dipping freekick using the technique that didn't exist before the lighter balls of today.

Watching MOTD. Can't help but love it when Jason Puncheon gets the ball for Palace.

And he gets to have a hair cut!

And a charity benefits apparently. Good man.

Anelka says he was simply dedicating the goal to the comedian. Hmmm.

 

[Le Tissier's Laces]

2-1 Chelsea at the moment if anyone is interested!

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

Whats up with Ivan the terrible, could do with him missing for Chelsea. More blood, more thunder please.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Spurs 1.0...good if Stoke don't close up on us, but bad that a gap is now appearing above us. (Must keep telling myself that there are a lot of games to go).

 

[pass the football]

Luiz is now suspended

 

[Schad]

No David Luiz for our match now.

 

[Saintmagic]

Luiz just got booked so is suspended for our game

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

Brill, they have a couple missing now.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Brill, they have a couple missing now.

Only 9 to go

 

[AL.]

Who else is out for them against us?

Come on Suarez, provoke Hazard into punching you in the face.
