appentley king and woodgate are both out tonight, has anyone else heard this?

 

[Kendall]

I think it's a given. Woodgate was injured anyway & Ledley has just played 2 games.

Corluka and Rocha it is then

 

[chkthfc82]

If I remember correct this was the game where Pires tripped over his own foot and got given the pen. Pompey deserved to win that one.

Baptism of fire for Rocha Eek

Baptism of fire for Rocha Eek

Didn't he make his debut against Arsenal in the 2nd leg of the CC semi? The year we lost... and managed to fall over at a pretty crucial time and got (somewhat unfairly imo) crucified on here the next day? :shrug:

 

[spur_souljah]

so i guess it looks like we are going to ship goals tonight!!!

 

[don1]

we are not giving a chance by many people, i would love it if we win this one,

 

[Firekid]

Do it. Act gay.

Best way to fit in.

 

[NickHSpurs]

I reckon they'll be goals tonight, 3-2 or 4-3 not sure what way it will go.

Just do what I do, accept from now that we've already lost the game. So if we do lose you won't be too disappointed. If we manage to scrap a draw or do the unthinkable then that will just be a bonus

I've never really been able/wanted to do that. The anticipation is half the fun

 

[joey.leone]

im fired up for it, just those stats dont make pretty reading. lol

i think we will play well, like we did against chelsea. i think it will be a close one, like the match at the emirates last year.

 

[donny1013]

Crazy last year that we had a CM of O'Hara and Boateng and we could have won it had Berba been on penno duty that day. i reckon 1-1 tonight, coys!
