Good evening,
I remember going to night clubs in the late eighties and giving men who looked like Stoke players a really wide berth. They were pasty faced behemoths with glassy eyed, heavily booze sedated glares. Occasionally they focused upon their prey and those daft enough to meet their gaze were too frequently met with an immediate threat of violence.
The first half was near unwatchable. And I’m not whining just because we trudged off two goals to the worse. It was anti football all the way. Stoke hoofed and Huthed their way again and again into our penalty area. If any other Premiership outfit when awarded a throw in gave a 15/20 second burst of Irish dancing (just for example) prior to throwing the ball, they would be penalized without hesitation.
But with Stoke the ceremony of the towel, the ball cleansing, rubbing, examinaion and finally the run up prior to launch appears to now be a welcomed part of the game. Hell, they’ve even let them sew a towel into the inside of their shirts.
The second half was a mess. Chris Foy is a retarded and incontinent old woman and that’s about as constructive as I can be about him.
A dreadful game.
If that performance by a ref goes without demotion to the lower leagues I want to know why. Fizzy pop Foy and his two side kicks (should have been carrying white sticks not flags) were absolute fuck- witts! I dont know if anyone else noticed but Stoke had even made the pitch smaller to avoid playing anything that might resemble association rules football. The beautiful game certainly doesnt take place in the potteries! Bunch of arse mate!!
Bad defending and lazy players cost us the first half. Very bad referring cost us the game in the end. Any other job, other that the FA, and he, along with his other two idiots would be sacked. This man clearly hates Spurs.
When Crouch swapped shirts with Foy the end, I began to wonder!
Brilliant = it was no penalty!! = Spurs was outplayed in the first half
Outplayed may be, but it wasn’t at football! It wont be long before their pitch is the size of a postage stamp which should save on the up keep of that green stuff, and that saving can be slipped into the refs top pocket prior to kick off!
I thought Foy had a shocker.
It was never a penno. Modric went down in installments. Shocking dive.
