Hell yeah but the same could be said if it was us that went there with a CB partnership of Evans and Brown
You still on there Stag?
Find a picture so we can prove to Tummy how much he looks like him.
Tummy should just post a picture of himself doing a sad face, same thing
Have some respect!
You're like a cheets look-a-like sat on the back of the bus flicking paper at the miserable old atpbx
I'm not always miserable.
Just most of the time.

Feel a tad sorry for the Spurs even though i shouldnt, went down like a sack of spuds....i caught the game at around the 60min mark when they were 2-0 down...bloody Adebayor scoring a couple was a surprise to me as usually he cant hit a barndoor at 5 paces lol.
Thought the 3rd goal by Di Maria was simply sublime...what a stunning goal that was and the 4th by Ronaldo...well Gomes should have saved that...what an absolute gimp he is....no disrespect to our own Gimp lol
But having that lanky idiot Crouch sent off didnt help Spurs at all...from what i saw of the game, it was all Real with Spurs always defending.
It was a good run for the Spurs...they had some pretty easy games up the Real game..they werent really tested till last night and they fell apart...had Crouch not been sent off, i dont think Real would have spanked them that hard but i couldnt and cant see Spurs clawing themselves back into this in the 2nd leg...4 goals is a bloody lot to come back and Real will probably score a few at WHL.
Good run Spurs, you did better than you were expected to...this coming from an Arsenal fan who should, in all honesty be laughing at how the Spurs capitulated but i cant as i feel kinda sorry for the Spurs.
Refreshing statement that from an Arsenal fan
I thought the Spurs defence actually did a fine job considering the pressure they were under, except for the second goal which they appeared to be strolling away from corner kick.. I'm only frustrated that we have nothing to look forward to next week.. Even a slim chance is better than none.. Still, hopefully some one in the board room will have learnt his lessons.. that if you are going to compete at this level and requalify then you are going to have to invest heavily in the squad. Levy hasn't done this so really i couldn't expect anything more. It ok having money in the bank, but it's worthless unless it's spent.
Looking forward to the close season and hopefully get rid of some dead wood; King, Woodgate, Jenas, Crouch, Pav, Defoe all need to go really to make room. I can't say I'd miss Van der Vaart either.. As good as he is, he has spent too much time injured and is a total liability on the pitch. Scott Parker is ideal replacement.
I was under the impression Spurs had spent big Huddy? They're one of the biggest spenders in the league?
I thought Spurs did "okay" but with 10 men it was never going to be easy, Also going 4 down would have hurt, I think you'd of had a much better chance if you'd have kept it at 2/3

Didn't they pay like €20m for Ranocchia though?

Indeed and much the same i thought too...going down to 10 men was always going to be tough especially when so early in the game...if Real had won by 2 goals then i would have said the Spurs were in with a good shout but 4 goals??..dodgy 'arry is definitely going to need an almighty miracle to beat Real even though its at WHL but football is a funny ole game so lets see.
I think they are the 2nd highest spenders so far....

I've noticed in general this place has gotten a bit less affable though recently. I haven't posted in the matchday threads much recently because too much of it is people either trolling or being ****s. I posted in the thread this weekend and ended up spending my time arguing with atpbx.
When emotions are running high it happens but it's really a total waste of time.If Barca can beat Real Madrid 5-0 so can Spurs, right?
Stranger things have happened, I can't think of any but they must have!

Happens every title run in though, everybody is friendly in the summer/up to christmas, then people start getting angry
As a Stoke fan I hope they do rest a few key players.

I'm angry all year round apparently :/
You have potent anger management issues. Go and see a specialist.
