Hull are going to be challenging for Europe at this rate!

[IAceI]

Good bit of solid marking on Delap there. Very nice.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

ugh.

So now we either come back again and score or we just give up like every other game this season.

[Matt]

lol, tottenham. Seriously, what the fuck, you have a decent team, why are you so shite?

[ZJ Penn]

Woohoo, another awesome win. Turner must be on the verge of an England friendly call-up now. Had it on the radio at work and caught the finish at home on SSN.

Really need to book a weekend off and get to a game, haven't had chance since the play-off semi-final second leg.

That second leg game was immense though. Especially when our bench joined along with the wave.

[Matt]

Why didn't Pavlyuchenko start?

[ZJ Penn]

Yeah easily the best I've been to. I keep the ticket in my wallet for good luck.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Why didn't Pavlyuchenko start?

He's not supposed to be back from injury yet. I doubt he's fit to play a full 90 but could happily put together a solid 30.

[Dan]

How odd.

Spurs on paper have one of the best teams in the league and one of the best managers in the league.

The lack of any creativity upfront really stood out for me, without anyone in the crucial positions.

[Matt]

Modric is being played all wrong. Ramos wants him as a box to box midfielder, and he isn't one.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I firmly believe that if we just had Robbie Keane we'd be looking at a top eight finish without doubt.

The difference without him is just incredible.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Whoop! Good tactics Hutton. Bust up their goalie at force them to bring the reserve on. Let's get some shots in and get a couple of goals past this no-hoper of a keeper.

[IAceI]

Corluka just took a running knee. I haven't seen one of them since playing SmackDown vs. Raw.

[-A-]

Double knee, too. One to the face, one into the ribs.

EDIT: How many fucking boards do they need to carry one guy off?

How long since Corluka went down? Seems like 10 minutes.

7 1/2 minutes. Wow. 10 minutes stoppage time anyone?

1711: "I remember when Gareth Bale was the new hope for English football. Now he's a clumsy, bit-part player whose game has fallen dramatically."

Yes, now he is the new hope for Welsh football.

Bahahaha

Eighty minutes of stoppage ahead.

Ricardo Fuller is the only guy who attempts to time waste in the opposition's penalty area.
