Wilshere will be paying out this year, methinks.

    As disappointed as I was about yesterday, when you look at the shambles that is the goons right now (more goals conceded than ANYBODY in the prem) its not so bad, is it?

    Most goals conceded in away games.
    3 more than Bolton or Blackburn, who are the next worst.
    Only 6 conceded at home though, bizarrely.

    They're still solid, Lidls.
    You might even say that they were statuesque. <whistle>

    To be fair Dona, the generosity of our defences over the years has led to an unwanted record of our own. Maybe we should save that one for another day.

    Agreed, one for the quiz's in a few years, 'who scored the 1000th goal against Spurs, the first team to concede a thousand in the prem'.

    Bloody Fletcher!, should have left him locked up in Slade Prison if you ask me.

    I completely agree with this comment. This record doesn't mean that much. It would be more useful to look at overall goal difference. That being said, its better to be Spurs and concede 1000 goals in the league than (say) be Blackpool and have conceded 60 odd.

    All that record shows is that Spurs have been ever present in the Premier League and are exciting to watch to some extent.

    When you consider that Swindon conceded 100 in one season, it doesn't sound so bad!

    That, and the fact that we have had some rubbish defences down the years.

    That as well. But it does imply that we score as many (or close to as many) as we concede. The overall GD is +20 or so. Would rather be Spurs than Everton / Villa.
    But yeh, Spurs have had some atrocious defenders over the years.

    Careful - there are some on here who wont hear a word against the Ginger Pele! He was pretty poor though. Luckily we often put him up front where he couldn't cause any problems (for anyone)
