Good afternoon.

Some ‘supporters’ behaviour in the last 24 hours both in the flesh and online only serves to underline we are nothing if not ‘a broad church’. Bring back Henry VIII.

Those attending games need to stop behaving like ’empowered consumers’ and more like football fans. This whole ‘I told you so’ spiel is desperate. Three games in. Three.

Here’s the player ratings.

8 Boos. Seemed to have his heart in it. Made some excellent saves. Hopeless. 

6 Boos. Had a really indifferent game. Had been doing well but was anonymous. Get rid.

7 Boos. A decent shift bit he was mopping up for Kyle and was generally run about. I want my money back.

6 Boos. Had the audacity to make some great interceptions. Why doesn’t Joe Lewis put his hand in his pocket?!

5 Boos. Nearly gave away a penalty. Better luck next week. I used to support Orient, you know.


5 Boos. He’s rapidly becoming the Painting By Numbers of the squad.  Rubbish, I’m going home.

6 Boos. Passive aggressive headless chicken. I wish I’d stayed at home.

6 Boos. He doesn’t look up. So he invariably crosses to nobody. Leaving at half time is dench.

5 Boos. Too much like much like my local chip shop. Didn’t deliver. At these prices I’ll boo when I want, son.

6 Boos. On an upbeat note every game like this decreases the likelihood of a mega-bid in January. Levy Out!

8 Boos. Wanted to take the game by the scruff of the neck. Nearly succeeded. Fulham reject. 

6 Boos. He’s doing his best. I tell you what I don’t know why I come here anymore.

6 Boos. I don’t know how unfit he is, I just wish he would start. I won’t be here next week .

Endless Boos. He seems to be doing a jigsaw puzzle with the pieces with the picture on facing down. Harry come home.

    Boooo hooooo.

    Nope.In the cold light of day I can see its just readjusting to supporting Spurs again after a summer off. Its always like this. We love it. It aint goona change either. Its the Tottenham way. Booo Hooooo.

    I’m happy with top 6 too, if Levy 100% expects top 4 this season from AVB then he is wanting too much, so are Spurs fans. AVB has got to be given a chance to get a team that’s his, and not Harrys. If we had done all our business during pre-season then he may of had a better chance to get the first 11 sorted and for them to gel but as usual Levy waits until the last day to do our majoor business. He nor the fans can expect any player to just come in and setlle straight away. For once Levy has to stick by his appointment and realise it may take time to see it come to fruition, the fans need to stick by the manager and the team, booing will just make the players even more nervous with the pressure and the media will already be waiting, and helping, to get AVB out for column inches.

    shit. I meant gonna not goona. Thats fucking terrible. Please kill me.

    I thought we did quite well in the window considering but I am very concerned about AVB.

    I am not judging him I’m just commenting on his performance.

    It’s common knowledge that Defoe cant play up front on his own. When Ade came on with him he looked far more effective and then got promptly taken off.

    Sandro and Livermore in the middle is guaranteed to stifle creativity. Livermore while quite competent is not really looking up to premiership quality yet.

    To try to close the game down after going 1 up against Norwich at WHL is very dissapointing.

    Taking off Sandro and leaving Livermore there also surprised me.

    • LLL says:

      Yes, inexplicable decisions. Basic, fundamental errors of judgement. Repeated.

      I thought about it and could only come up with the idea that he is doing his players favors. I.e. he spoke with Defoe and his agent and assured him of playing time as we weren’t getting any more forwards in, and he knows Livermore is taking some flak from the fans but also that he is his only option so wants to show him he has the manager’s belief if nobody elses.

      I mean Adebayor might not be fit. But even still, stick someone taller up there with Defoe while we wait for him, even if it’s facking Bale or something. Defoe can play in a two up top formation or not at all. EVERYONE knows this.
