Good evening.
There are very few certainties in life. You know the usual gags of course. Death, taxes, nurses…
But one certainty that we all too frequently overlook is the arrogance of stupid people. So this blog is dedicated to Arry Redschnapps. One of the most transparently stupid people the world has ever known.
Roy Hodgson has been formally approached by the FA.
Arry, thanks for the 3 points today but history will remember you as a bloke that once won an FA Cup with a no mark club.
Pilchard.
Winning The Fa Cup with a ‘no mark club’? Shoot urself in tha heed, why doncha? lol. These have been testing times for Spurs fans’ and I’ve sworn about Redschnappps a few times meself, but, it’s the players mainly. They’re not putting it in. Not tracking back, working hard and raising the tempo to the pace we’re effective at, like they have been previously. We’re not good at the slow, calculated approach, digging away from side to side, looking for an opening… We’re more dynamic. We need to press high and hard just to get the tempo up, and even if they camp, press high and hard without the ball, raise tempo and force mistakes. That’s how we score our goals, with them on the back-foot. Forcing errors, quick counters, before they all get back into position. The players haven’t worked hard enough. Wanted it enough. Because they thought Redders was off, Modric, then Bale start getting shifty… The likes of Lennon, BAE, would then be deflated at the thought… Those teams that pic up points from March onwards – relegation battlers and those with something to play for – natural adrenalin, underrated, enough so to make some paranoid about Lucozade, the difference between a highly motivated sportsman and someone going through the motions, on the field of play, is immense. Ours lost their way ‘cos they thought ‘Arry was off. The ramifications… day by day, meal by meal, session by session, spiraling, escalating. Focus was lost. There’s no ‘blame’ here, folks. Hopefully happy Harrys’ hereonin :] Hodgsons’ a good call. My hope all along. We prolly need 3rd, mind. Come On You Germans.
Also ‘Arry was not responsible for Pompeys spending but ‘Arry being ‘Arry made sure he got his cut from it, just like he did at most of the clubs he’s been at. Now i’m not slating the man for wanting to improve his finances i’m just pointing out that he is a paid employee, the board pay the wages and sanction transfers. For conformation just ask King Kenny about his spending
Think our squad is overrated and people expect too much from it sometimes. Yes our 1st team is
great when fully fit and on song, other than that it’s tough when we get some injuries or loss of form. Hudd and Daws would have helped big time as well remember. Look at the money Citeh, Utd and Chelski have spent and their massive wage structures and you start to get an idea of how well we’re doing getting in and about the top 4 the way we have under Harry. For example, our best forward is on loan from one of our rivals who don’t even need him (as they have 3 other world class strikers) and we can just about afford to pay him half what he’s on!! Some people need a reality check….
I like how this site really highlights the 3 types of Spurs fan.
1. The kids: Under 16, they need success and they need it NOW. Still blind to the realities of life and patience.
2. The wise: Probably 30-somethings who have lived through some crap times and realise that what we have now is the best we’ve had it for 2 decades. Reluctant to arse it all up now with kneejerk reactions and managerial sackings.
3. The old guard: They’ve seen it all and have had enough. Have solved third world debt and cured cancer many times over at the local pub after 8 pints of lager, so telling Levy how to fix a football club is too easy.
Unfortunately the kids and the old guard shout loudest on this site which makes us all look like a bunch of deluded morons. Thanks.
Spot on Lilwhite London our sqaud is not quite overated just loaned out and underplayed. These are the players who have gone on loan Corluka Pienaar Caulker Kane Naughton Townsend Bostock injured Bentley Jenas Dawson Hudds Kranjcar Under cooked Dosantos Bongani Gomes who i believed would have got us to Wembley Defoe Saha Rose. Every year a new Young player can right his name in our History the year we finished 4th it was Rose last season we used no one. This year players i thought would shine are on loan Townsend Kane Caulker Parrett Carrol has been on Derby’s bench even Bostock who has been badly let down by getting loaned to lower clubs from where he came Palace we could have loaned him back to Palace. We need to stop this loaning of first team players Bentley Jenas Corluka could have helped us with injuries leaving us with a weak bench at times.
