Bloody hope you're right mate!!!! We need to start at a high tempo or we'll let you settle - which is something that we are prone to do. Soton had the better of us for large parts of our last home game and if you guys were at full strength I could see something similar happening. We might be challenging Top 4 but by no means have learnt the ruthlessness that you get with ManUre and maybe a couple of others. Anyway - short of a draw or victory tomorrow, I will wish you all the best!!
I can't see anything other than a comfortable win for Spurs tomorrow, but I believe Paolo will get rid of a glut of players we have who are fragile mentally and replace them with some ball players, not frightened of the ball, with ambition. I'm excited for next season, I really think (hope) that after all the failures since Reid, we might have the right man at last. He talks a great game Paolo, and you can't help but buy into it, but he is currently working with a crock of ****. Thankfully, we do have a few players of genuine ability, and with the right recruitment, I think we can aim for a steady 8-12 next season, lets be honest, below Everton (bar Liverpool who will improve again next year),, there's so little between the sides that good management and/or 1 or 2 choice signings can make all the difference.
Having horrible negative thoughts about today - dreamed Ars*n*l only drew today but that we ..... LOST We never seem to have a good last day
Good luck everybody!!! See you on the 'other side' (post-match) come good or bad outcome..... COYS!!!!

Spurs: Lloris; Walker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Huddlestone, Parker, Dempsey; Adebayor, Bale. Good team
Bale doesn't play on the left for us any more, PP. Dempsey v Larsson's probably less of a worry for you.
Everyone is completely writing off Sunderland including their own fans. Football is a funny old game and I'm surprised to see these responses!
