Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United - Official Buildup/Matchday Thread

In other news, Luuk de Jong scored a hat-trick!

 

Dutch football for ya.

 

Yeah, maybe we should move to the Dutch league.

 

Strange thing is the defenders who come over here from there seem to do well. Pieters and Vlaar seem like very good defenders.

 

Poor defeat. Defending poor regardless of keeper. Jak is not good enough to be in this situ. He might improve, he might not, the fact is he is not good enough right now. It isn't helping the defending but Willo is not good enough and Colo has had a couple of shockers. None of this "its because of who he is playing beside", no he's been ****e. We need to get ourselves our **** together for Sunday. I'd consider maiming young Woodman or sending him to a Pennywell hooker (riddled). At least we'll get a loan.

 

This is one side of the story of the lock-out. If the story of the 'fan' with the smoke bomb were found to be true, and why wouldn't it? Then he needs to be removed from the club's association for the next 125 years.

Appreciate there are always two sides but two things to consider:

1- If an emergency situation was triggered... surely the kick off get's delayed...
2- If a smoke bomb was the sole cause... how come when we have probably 7-8 incidents from visiting fans like that.. do away fans have no problem walking the 7 floors to their seat for kick off?

One of my best mates is in the Met and covers Islington and has told me that it was Spurs who called all the shots that night.... so they aren't going to stitch themselves up are they...
