Good morning.

Things got twitchy online yesterday with the complete and utter media shut down on the Cheltenham Town game. Probably just as well. Dare I tell you the atmosphere at The Lane yesterday is being described by experts who attended as ‘tepid’?

But we won, the Double is on. People are throwing their hats in the air so joyously the vast majority have not even stopped to consider marking the lining with  their name and/or a contact detail.

The whole shebang was made worse by the torturous and overwhelmingly feeble ITV show. Presented by some failed supply teacher, Paul Ince who’s so clearly out of his comfort zone when he’s not being a thug and Gordon Strachan in a £8 shirt.

Horrible show with video production values one might more readily expect from someone being held hostage filming covertly on a cell phone.  So well done to the FA. If it gets really nippy this winter I hear fifties burn off more heat than lower denominations.

    Pity Santos is going as i think his best place is in the middle.Has a great pass about him and lots of tricks.Would be a great back-up for Modric.Oh well.

      read what arry says about the lazy git. He HAD a big future but is a lazy git.

    • totnam says:

      Yes right there, in the middle of the bar, has a piss, and up to old tricks. would be a great back-up for Shadrach Dingle. Let this and him go for god’s sake.

    • Razspur says:

      Great pass to Defoe, JD was certainly in the right place to nick another. Defoe for Eng-a-land and Daws came through almost a full 90 mins. The gloom is lifting as a new era dawns.

        lol, great pass to Defoe!! Quality…I like Defoe but if I was Gio I would be knocking the bleach out of his hair with that steal, that was a piss take!

  • Andrew says:

    let’s keep this in perspective, Dos Santos played well against Cheltenham Town…When he plays against anyone in the Premier League he’s never impressed, because he won’t have the time or space on the ball..He is much more suited for the Spanish or Italian leagues, that are played at a slower pace and are not as intense..

    His name is Gio looks like a showgirl..

  • Razspur says:

    Gio : That was my goal,you should`a left it.
    De`o : Was that not a pass i was running on to ?
    Gio : English pig-dog you stole my goal.
    De`o : You`ll get plenty more chances in the Belgian 2nd division.
    Gio : I keel you, you ruin my life,my Amigo`s will let the tyres down on your Range Rover.

    Got to pity GDS a little, as it was obviously his goal. Glad he got another to make up for it. Defoe is greedy yes, but he’s a striker, if the ball isn’t in the net, he should be making sure it is. He would have got more stick if he had tried to let it go in for GDS only for a opposition player to slide in and clear off the line. We were still at 0-0, if that had happened could have ended up being a much harder game than it needed to be.
