Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United Match History 1905-2013

Naughton had plenty of opportunities early in the season to make a mark when Benny was injured and the best you can say is that he was adequate. Not having our best LB on the pitch is a major loss.
Why Verts should not be starting is also strange, although Caulker and Dawson are a strong combo.

 

Benny didn't go to the ACON. In my opinion he should be started. Although he hasn't been great the last couple of games he has been out injured for ages. He is better than Naughton at left back and I don't understand that decision at all. The rest of the team makes sense so am happy with that.

 

Ghoddle - Benny is under rated by a lot of Spurs fans as well.

 

Benny played for Cameroon in Tanzania - a friendly!!!!

 

Oh right cheers Relayer. Interesting the level of commitment comparing Dempsey to Adebayor!

 

Defoe would have scored that !

 

And some of us just rate him.

 

Come on Spurs don't need my bet losing on the first game!

 

The Defoe before Christmas maybe!

 

Should have been a yellow

 

Definitely

 

Good freekick

 

Get in!!!!

 

****ing get in! Our one man team score again! ;-)

 

Oh yeah! Bale you beauty! COYS!!!

And that's what Dempsey does for us; he buys fouls near the box.

 

Are we allowed to score this early?

 

about time bale scored a free kick!

I didn't say "bale's free kicks are ****. end of." the other day or anythin....

 

Ha ha I think that's the earliest we have scored all season, well it feels like it anyway. Lets not try and hold on for 85 minutes now!

 

I was suing the same thing Roo as he ran up to take it. I like to be proved wrong!

 

It's OK providing we don't try and defend it for 85 minutes PNP.
