Spurs: In Juande we trust - the Tottenham thread 08/09

I actually feel like taking the piss would be too cruel. How has that happened? :( Taking the piss out of spurs used to be one of life's great pleasures... now I feel too bad.

:confused:

dodgepot will be well annoyed :D
 
That was merely referring to the fact that, when we originally came up, nobody could have predicted that we'd have got to the FA Cup final or qualified for Europe.

Although admittedly it was also asking for a fall...


Yeah, I take full blame for that season. Should never have let myself get carried away!
 
some great comments off the 606...

It looked awful, but he did go for and get the ball first. he probably deserved red, but not to be accused of being a dirty leg breaking player. He will never be that sort of malicious person, no spurs players ever are,

Spurs are hardly Man Utd but are at least the fourth biggest club in the prem and certainly bigger than Chelsea

At fault are Berbatov and Manchester Utd

they are the supporters that keep on giving.

Even in the midst of my moral turmoil, angry spurs fans make me laugh loads. All irate and that. As somebody pointed out on the radio "Comolli and Levy were there when you got 5th twice in a row".

I just miss LC. :(
 
I only saw the end of the match (well, from 89 mins or so), but that was enough to see Stoke hit the post 4 times, Spurs have a player (quite rightly) sent off, and the final whistle go after 11 minutes of injurty time.

WTF??

United's fault? Spurslol. Levy and Comoli are the most clueless pair in the prem.

:D :D :D

Oh go on, let me have starting rights this season...

So far we've signed some real quality:

Bostock: A kid, but allegedly a wunderkind. One for the future clearly. A good signing, but not one that's likely to impact upon the new season.

Gomes: Should be a quality signing. Hard to know with a keeper, but will hopefully give the back four more confidence than they had in their last resort than last season.

Modric: Everyone's jealous. Excellent acquisition, but we're going to have to achieve if we're gonna keep him for more than a couple of seasons.

Gio: Abundant talent, and could be phenomenal. My one concern with him is that he's not so relied upon that we burn him out, as (IMO) we have to some degree with Lennon. With Modric, Bentley & Lennon all sharing creative duties, I'd hope this won't be such an issue now.

Bentley: An unpopular opinion; but I like him. I don't care if he had a contract with them, he was never a goonie. In pre-season so far he's looked electric, and could be the difference between Bent the benchwarmer & Bent the 16.5M Hitman.


Combine this with the very real feeling/info that we're not by any means done in the buying stakes yet, and it has to be cause for optimism for the season ahead.

After last season, I'm certainly not going to make rash predictions. But maybe, just maybe, we stand a chance of breaking that nasty little cartel this time around.

I'd totally forgotten to trash this thread...

:D:D:D
 
Did Spurs fans here see Berbatov's post match interview last night?

Apparently he's playing well 'because you can't hide during games' there. Nice to know he was taking your money but having a rest when he felt like it!
 
Haringey council has blocked Tottenham's plans to build a new ground on Northumberland Park. A town hall source said: "We don't mind having a funfair there once a year, but a circus every fortnight is a bit much."

"I was playing Scrabble and had enough letters to make 'Tottenham Hotspur Football Club'. I was gutted when I found out it was only worth two points."

Tesco are releasing new Oxo cubes in Spurs colours. Customers are told to look out for laughing stocks.

A young boy goes to social services and tells them he has nowhere to live. "What about your parents?" asks the social worker. "No, they beat me," says the boy. "What about your grandparents?" says the social worker. "No, they beat me even harder!" says the boy. "Well ... where do you want to stay then?" replies the social worker. "Tottenham," says the boy. "They don't beat anyone.

· What do a toothpick and Tottenham have in common? They both have two points

Juande Ramos, shortly after another training session, comments to the head groundsman at White Hart Lane how impressive the pitch is looking. "It ought to," replies the groundsman. "We put 70 million quid's worth of manure on it every week."

I just went down to the newsagents and bought Tottenham Hotspur magazine. Thank goodness they had porn mags to hide it in.

· What does a Spurs fan do after he sees his team win? Turns off the Xbox

After leaving San Siro, Jose Mourinho was asked if he was going to help Spurs get out of their slump. He turned around and said, "No way, I ain't that special".

Apparently the entire Tottenham squad have been busy honing their skills playing the computer game Championship Manager. Sadly it seems Juande misunderstood and thinks they want to play for a Championship manager.

Contrary to what you may think, Spurs are the strongest team in the league at the moment. Sure, aren't they holding everyone else up?

What do the Premier League and a cowboy have in common? They both have spurs at their feet.

A man was found dead floating in the Thames, wearing a blond wig, full make-up, bra, knickers, suspenders and a Spurs shirt. Before informing the next of kin the police removed the Spurs shirt to save the family embarrassment.

What would an improved version of Spurs be called? Newcastle United.

Did you hear that Juande Ramos was clocked doing 169mph on the M1 coming back from Stoke? Apparently he was just so desperate for three points.

· Is it just me or are Spurs the team to beat this season? Everyone's at it.

A man is sitting in a pub with his jack russell dog one Sunday afternoon. The football results are coming up on the television in the corner: "Stoke City 2, Tottenham Hotspur 1," reads the announcer. Suddenly the jack russell jumps up and shouts out, "Oh, no, not again." The shocked landlord says, "That's amazing. Why did he say that when it was announced that Tottenham lost?" "Because he's a Spurs supporter," the dog's owner replies. The landlord then asks what the dog says when Tottenham win a match, to which the man replies, "I don't know. I've only had him six months."

When a groggy Vedran Corluka regained consciousness in the ambulance leaving the Britannia Stadium on Sunday he asked medical staff who he was. On being told he played football for Tottenham Hotspur he lapsed into a coma.

All trains through White Hart Lane have been cancelled due to a massive points failure.

What's the difference between Juande Ramos and a cowboy? A cowboy wears Spurs on his boots whereas Ramos is a crap manager.

What does THFC stand for? Tottenham Heading For the Championship.

A little boy gets £10 for his birthday and rushes down to the sports shop to buy the new football he has been desperate for. He gives the ball to the shopkeeper, who says, "Sorry, son, this ball is £20. You only have £10". The boy says, "OK, if you blindfold me and I can guess the name of the club on any ball, will you give it to me for £10?" He agrees and gives the boy an Arsenal ball. "I can hear cannons blasting, so it's an Arsenal ball." Next he gives him a Millwall ball: "I hear lions, so it's Millwall." Amazed, the shopkeeper says, "Get this and you can have it for nothing." The boy listens and says Spurs. The man asks if he's heard a cockerel. "No," says the boy. "It's going down."

What's the difference between Bigfoot and the Spurs defence? Bigfoot has been spotted several times.

Spurs have been forced to rename their ground "White Lane" because their "Hart" was surgically removed when Berbatov and Keane were sold
