Why not Camford?

And add to that Buntingford, and i just spotted the most intriguingly named town of Fordingbridge in Hampshire - it's like Bridge-ception!

To backup dontcallme and help repair this thread, some Dortmund nuggets from forum.westline.de via google translate:



me it is still a mystery why the Spurs the EL as simple "abschenken" ... I want it right but as a Tottenham fan, I would be pretty pissed off to be!
---


They want to be masters and therefore the Europa League is for them a secondary matter.
---


The explanation is the potential (direct) Qualifying for the CL for me. The league title as candy goes on top. Both are essential for sustainable Tottenham. The EL-title is not within reach and the burden of this contest should be as little as possible impact on the league. If the B-team progresses, then take that with you.

MM n. Must UEFA make more interesting this competition. distribute more money and possibly open more qualifying opportunities for the CL.

Example: semi-finals in the EL and one may play in the next season in the summer in the qualifying rounds for the CL. In finals one can participate in the CL next season.

And the missing money may UEFA are looking at themselves. The get through their marketing share enough money they could give back to the clubs.
---


Now it is hopefully with ease in the next round. My prediction: Tottenham is even more regulars conserve, therefore BVB easy easy can play.
---


Better, we respond to Tottenham [trying] it, as we after 0. 3 of Madrid It's still football, and we go into arrears, then quickly germinates hope. If we stay focused, but then we do not fall behind and the first goal for us, the fair is then read. That should be the goal.
---


Unlike Tottenham Dortmund has however not abgeschenkt the first leg before, so it would surprise me greatly if they want to move in there at any price in the next round.
---


I would go this far. There were 3 key players on the pitch, 4 if you Wimmer this counts because Vertonghen is zzt injured.
Defensive he has the two AVs rausgenommen, with decoding the midfield stabilizer and Dembele was not allowed to also ran.
---


If he thinks that's enough to have solid chances to zero [draw] with us, then he must be pretty naive or simply have no idea of what happens outside the PL that
----


This again I think PL-typical and very possible
----


Would Poch do not something ridiculous when he only abschenkt to spare and then pivoted around and for the minimal chance everything raushaut? Somehow, then also the first leg would give more significance when he signaled that it actually still take the competition seriously, but in Dortmund simply stopped going. It would also not quite fit for Villa to save everything and then rauszuhauen everything before Bournemouth.

So NEN stark decline in performance as Tottenham will be seen not with us because our bank is simply much stronger. At Tuchel shoes would do no complete rotation, but can also play no one feels tired.
---


Quite so blatant I would not judge. They may have omitted a few offensive players, but MMN with the goal as long as possible to keep a zero. That plan was only by the shape of the enemy something in the pants [google translate].
----


I read a lot in Tottenham forum, it is actually the primary goal CL.
In the championship they hope still, but realistically they are very happy when they are not caught even from behind.
It's just the first time since tens of years that they are as far forward and possibly again for a long time the last time.

Why was ahead of the game already consensus that one should preserve to beat Aston Villa (!). (That could easily be good results against all the other competitors scored)

When the formation was so crass, but many were shocked and found the then again not right.

I am now really believe that he will not put up the first team again, as it would otherwise not credible.

But - what surprised me. The procedure there all about the money - we do not buy enough to a 2nd good strikers - it is sufficient only for the first 11 - then nothing more comes with quality etc. One wrote that CL would be so important, since one would finally get then so much money.

How can that be where it always is, get as much money from TV deals? It was said but that the last get there more than the buyers. In relation to TV monies CL funds would then but Cl hardly carry weight - right? At least it seemed to me as if T'ham not one cent more available has as the average club at us and I was very surprised by all the reports.

if you managest crappy kannste much money have as you please
one which is the pl, there is nothing more I am surprised.
peep Get the expenditure on from shity or united, and then read in redcafe the many reviews the roll over with buzz that would still invest to you again would be reasonably well .. just funny
especially if you then shoot those troops ausm stadium.

due to this:

not be distracted by the weakness in the first leg, full pot draufgehen, the thing to win and be a round further
---


I go uch believes that Tottenham will try everything the first 15-20 minutes to score a goal ... We just have to be careful, keep hand and stand safely. Survive we the initial phase without conceding dwindling hope and we pounced mercilessly. My tip: 1: 3
---


na because we can be glad that we are trained not of klopp. when I think of the first minutes in the past year.
---


Tottenham know not how to play against us. Do they play counter with an open visor, then we can make and quickly nen goal - then must have 5 shooting and the thing is through. Play it from the back, then make sure that never 3 goals against our strengthening defensive.
---


I'm easy to see just horny play with this fc again. Once the final whistle is I'm already hot again on the next match.
[results of years of regular tv porn channel exposure out there]

Unbelievable how dominant we encounter. The yes all have ever had no chance against us the last games.
Have me the past few weeks often asked whether I should be happy about this type of football or rather cry because it is not enough at the end to a (deserved) championship. Now it is for me nurnoch pure joy. I just hope that you can somehow hold the fc. Because then it will abgehn the years to correct.

Skin off the English!

jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Horny thing that wars
[Auba's goal + another horny translation - maybe a google translate programmer mucking around?... maybe just the germans IDK]
----


So this must be it
---


Auba also has beautiful hair
[pfft, not quite to the level of hair game offered by our Mason or Toby]
---


Man man bvb is also more boring. No action today. No thrills with nails chew. Tuchel out! That must now be said times!
[joking obv. or an SC infiltrator - I'm unsure, but it's suspect]
---


With the guide, the game does look quite relaxed. Particularly tingling I do not find our game but. Has everything a little clumsy and offensive actions we are quite cumbersome. The physical play the Spurs prepares us apparently problems.
By the way: If there is really only to me so that let our players quite often loaded by slight body deceptions? If I have frequently.
---


Once again an opponent dominated. Class game with a miserable chance conversion. Castro, Micky and Weigl for me were the best yesterday. Really nice to see tackle a game after another as the players. All are from the outset at the level and fully focused. I would like to praise even more our coach. Incredibly variable with his lineups. And he is doing at present always get it right. Opponents really don't know how we act tactically. Since we got a tactically superior coach.
---


Pity, Micki [the gifted backpass]. But overall a very solid performance of our boys.

I see that Spurs fielded a weakened team in the EL last night, Kane on the bench...saving themselves for a bigger challenge on Sunday? )

It's their cup final : )

I think that it will be an interesting contest between the four full backs, all of them like to bomb forward

...and two ex-Spurs full backs in our team!!!!

Haha this from KUMB when discussing a link to Jordan Henderson:

'Doubt he wants to end his England career just yet...

On a serious note I think he is vastly overrated. I'd rather any of our midfield in front of him. If we were signing any Liverpool midfield it'd be Coutinho for me although I've a feeling we'll sign Modric this year. Apparently he wants out Madrid and Bilic always mentions him and bigs him up so any glimpse of a chance and I think we'll get him'

Jesus they are more deluded than Liverpool fans! It's just the fact they've been shite that has kept their fans down. Two of my best m8s are Spammers and believe me some of the shite they come out with is ridiculous! They were going to win the league back in September. They are definitely being bought by a Middle Eastern someone and will be as big as Citeh and win the league within 4 years. They'll own the OS within 15 years. I really could go on all night . If they make top 4 they will be a fucking nightmare!

LDNYid said:

Agreed. As much as I love to watch arsenal's demise, the idea of West Ham in the champions league makes me feel a bit queasy... They are a proper scummy club. I'd even take Utd back in the champions league of it means both Arsenal and spam miss out.

Some serious disappointment coming their way over the next few seasons. They are flying this season and hats off to Bilic and the buying team they have there but from the outside looking in it seems their set up consists of massive, limited athletic players doing Payet's running for him. Take him out their side and they are probably 10th at best. He is in their side though so fair play.

The weird thing is we have a lot of fans of certain clibs who think this season is a watershed moment for English football and the playing field is levelling up. I would love for this to be the case but I just can't see it. You've got West Ham, Southampton, Stoke and co all talking about the future as being bright but if we just take a look at what's going to happen in the next 18 months or so, I actually think this could be the last chance for anyone outside the big 6 being able to get a slice of tha cake.

Mourinho in at Man United. He will have a huge transfer kitty and will attract virtually anyone. A Mourinho with something to prove is disastrous for his rivals, still the best manager in the game imo.

Pep at Man City. I fully expect him to break all kinds of transfer records this summer. He will have been sought after by every top club but something swung it for City. My guess is £200m+ transfer kitty and quite possibly already 2/3 huge stars already agreed to be on their way to the club.

Klopp at Liverpool. Again, he had his pick of clubs, an elite manager. He will have guarentees of big money and he will get them playing no doubt. Liverpool will be a huge threat very soon.

Chelsea. Anyone expect Roman to take this season on the chin? No chance. Conte or whoever comes in will have a war chest to match City. They'll be back in the mix next season.

There's four clubs who will be considerably better next season, and that's not even including us ( youngest side in Europe and on a huge upward curve ) and the goons.

Its a shame but I feel the optimism of the likes of West Ham and Stoke is slightly misplaced. To quote a certain Mr Redknapp, right now, it's as good as it gets for them.

Except we've seen that throwing money around doesn't actually fix all of a team's problems. Especially as these teams may be going after the same players, so some will miss their targets and the winners will likely overpay due to a bidding war.

SugarRay said:

Money combined with elite managers usually does the trick though. The problem the big clubs will have next season is all vying for the same players as you say. That just makes it less likely that those outside the big 6 end up picking up some high end talent nobody else wants.
I'd be amazed if we don't see a return to the 'norm' next season and for the foreseeable future. Sky will be delighted but football fans won't be, this season has been ten times more enjoyable than what we usually get to see ( and I don't say that based on being a Spurs fan )

Is it really that ridiculous? Modric will be 31 at the beginning of next season, and only has two years left on his contract at Real

He'd potentially get some ridiculous 5 year contract at the spammers and get to play for a manager that he knows well

A long shot maybe, but not deluded in my opinion


That said, I'd be gutted if it did happen
