WIGAN v SPURS

entertaining but meaningless.
fell asleep towards the end

An awful game, slightly predictable and a strange starting line up.

Agree about Berbatov. Let's take the money.

i feel glad that i didn't went out to watch the game. we are worse than the 1st half of the season. we use to play good 75-80 min b4, but after the cup we won, we now only play 20-35 min good football.

we werre doing good one-two in the 1st half, but in the 2nd half, the only thing we do is let HUDDLESTONE kick the ball up front & let BENT have a run. also why we have to put o"hara be a left back???????? he can't even clear the ball past the half way line. he is never built to be a defender. even the offical web site said that he is a midfielder.

for the team, i don't mind if they are in the 2nd page of the table, i don't mind if they lost a few goal per match. what piss me off is when they just walk around & play like a they don't care. it make me shame to support them.

Those of you who think next season will be better - time to wake up. I can hardly recall such a shocking run of dispirited, disorganised and basically fucking crap performances. We've got our Spurs back

here's my long winded match report...

same shit, different day

end of

Wigan Vs Spurs: Poor

Surrey Vs Lancs: looks like we will make the northen monkeys follow on!

Good to have another surrey cricket fan on the site ! Someone to share the misery.

I have one sugestion for Ramos & Gus and the other bloke that sits next to them, don't worry about experimenting for next season on the 1st team,
For the last 3 or 4 games drop the whole fuckin lot of them and play any youngster who's not played a 1st team match or even a minute of a 1st team match, they SHOULD play with a lot more pride.

For me, only Keane, Hutton, Woodgate, Bale and Malbranque (in CM) are worthy of a starting place come the new campaign.

Enough said about those not on my list.

Fuck! ... that means we need 6 new 1st team players. I wonder whether Ramos' calculations might not be that far off mine.

Two pub sides trying to bore each other to death.

If jokecastle finish above us, we are truly crap. Deal with it.

And the one thing that pissed me off more than anything else: The Three Amigo's laughing and joking at the final whistle with Steve "Elephant Man" Bruce. Without a care in the world. As if 1 point away to Wigan(FFS!) was a good result.

And yet again, The General failed to give any of our 4 or 5 reserve team youngsters worthy of a first XI run out a game. Instead he played the same old "formation for failure" with players out of position and established players who don't give a feck.

Quite frankly, The General is becoming negligent in this respect. He's heaping more and more pressure on himself and the team by the time next season comes around.

I am somewhat surprised Ramos hasn't taken the opportunity to test fringe players. If he did and lost, the fans would accept it now but certainty not next season. Should we read into this a change of buying policy from ENIC with a focus away from young potential players ? If Ramos refuses to play with inexperienced players now he'll be even less inclined to do so next season.

Ramos has lost the plot. Ramos OUT. Bring back BMJ

Behave.

Up until the League cup final Ramos was making the correct calls. The moment Jenas missed against PSV I knew the season would end like this. The coming and goings at WHL this summer is gonna be the busiest ever. Ramos said he knows the squad well enough. Everyone, including the manager wants the season to end so we can begin rebuilding.

Alternatively, The General feels these fringe players (Rose, Pekhart, Dervitte, Berbiche) are not good enough. In which case Levy needs to question our youth buying policy. In my opinion though, at least 2 of these players are worth a run out or at least a place on the bench. Interestingly, Forecast was on the bench on Saturday. But that was out of necessity I suspect.

Comolli OUT!

2 options:

Either there will be a mass clearout and I mean MASS at the end of the season and hardly any current players will still be there hence he is taking the view that it doesnt matter who plays in the rest of the games

or

He knows that the transfer kitty will not be there and he will have to make do with the current players he has and these are the best 11 or 13 he thinks he has

I must admit the current performance of the team is not making me look forward to next year. Hopefully things will change in close season.

If Ramos is not a success next season... I'll eat my shorts.

(i.e., I'm very confident he will be)

I believe you'll easily be able to tell me, come May '09.

I just hope those that are running down our most successful manager and team since Satan was at the helm have the balls to admit they were wrong if we achieve similar (relative) terms of greatness next season. Some of us sound like fickle jawdees. The season is over. Deal with it.

With all respect dear daniel, some of us are still watching the matches and it hurts big time, whether the season is over or not, to see such shockingly insipid perfomances. 3 years of reasonable success including 2 5th place finishes as opposed to mostly crap performances this year and two good wins against Arsenal and Chelsea. Instant gratification as opposed to long-term pleasure. I know what I prefer. The League Cup is but a distant memory now :-(

I cannot even be fucked to argue the toss that a plucky 5th place two seasons on the bounce is better than destroying the vermin at the lane, beating Chelsea for the first time since WWI and winning us our first piece of silverware without having one full season at the club. We had equally insipid and shite performances under Jol but they were at the start of the season as oposed to the end as we witness now.

Yes, bring back jolly Martin of course what were ENIC thinking. Oh, and I still watch the games just not in Delaneys but how this makes my opinion less than valid escapes me.

Shit here we go again. I must admit that I had got the impression from some of your previous postings that you hadn't always bothered to watch the games but I can't be arsed to find proof by trawling through mountains of posts. I shall refrain in future from even bothering to comment on your comments cos each time anyone dares to offer a different opinion it is taken as a personal slagging. If you are content to put up with the crap on display wherever you watch the matches, then fine. I'm not and judging by the general mood of most Spurs fans worldwide nor are many others. I suppose a spanking of Arsenal and a win over Chelsea is marvellous for a small team like ours. I suppose we should be eternally grateful to Lord Ramos for delivering us silverware. I suppose I should be as happy as a pig in mud. Can someone please tell me then why I am not exactly bursting with joy?

Ramos has been a success this season. He has won us a trophy and given us our best moment as Spurs fans since 1991.

absafuckinglutely ergo untouchable this season imho
