Hats off to these two undoubtedly big clubs!

[Hassony]

but I thought spurs had a better goalie, better defence, better full backs, better midfield and better wingers than us

 

not forgetting a better manager apparently

[Walrus]

Best strikeforce in the league too

[Paul_LFC]

They have a tough away game next Sunday at Pompey too. They need another striker. What are the odds of Defoe showing them what they are missing?

[Walrus]

I find it somehow strangely comforting that you can always count on Spurs and Newcastle to laugh at.

[Spike]

true.

 

Newcastlol and Spuds always tickle my funny bone.

[stressederic]

They exist so that fans of other teams, no matter how bad their position, can look at them and think "could be worse."

 

It's a service that newcastle and Spurs provide and we should all be grateful.

[Guest Ant]

true.

 

Newcastlol and Spuds always tickle my funny bone.

 

Come on Spike you can do better than that

[Andy @ Allerton]

I must admit it would extremely funny if Newcastle and Spurts got relegated.

[Walrus]

[stressederic]

Derby had more points at this stage last season than Tottenham do now.

[psl]

Derby had more points at this stage last season than Tottenham do now.

 

Its hardly fair to set Spurs such a high standard as Derby to aspire to.

more points than everton, spurs and newcastle combined

[Walrus]

[Falconhoof]

John Suchet, managing tottingham hotspurts yesterday.

[Andy @ Allerton]

To be fair.. Although Spurts have got 2 points and Newcastle aren't much better - 11th place is only 8 points.. So it's not like the rest of the league is streaking away.

[Hassony]

Man city, for all their money and how highly rated their manager seems to be have lost more matches than they have won this season!

[AE]

 

Signalling to Arsène Wenger in the crowd perhaps??

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

I did so like it after the Stoke game when the commentators came up with "...IF Everton beat Hull [tomorrow] AND beat Liverpool next week, they'll go ahead of them in the table..."

 

They did neither and for the record have taken 1 point (against Newcastle) since

[R A Softlad]

And still signed Gollum to another contract...

[Coyler]

You know the When the Spurs Go Marching In thing the Tottenham fans sing really, really slow? Have they always sung it that slow or is it a new thing?

[smithdown]

Last few years.

 

I don't think anyone has pointed out how depressingly maudlin it sounds yet, though. Must be a downer for the team and no mistake.

[Coyler]

Are they trying to make it into their YNWA? The way they sing those ridiculous words with so much feeling is just hilarious.
