Frustrated as hell. Feels like the world has collapsed.

However, i go back to bed and see my wife and beautiful kids and realise life's more than football and spurs.

I think we might lose half our team to retrospective bans!
Apart from a total lack of discipline tonight, I'm massively impressed by how quickly Poch has turned us in to a top team and a top 3 finish (barring a disaster) is an amazing achievement and far more than I expected from this season.
I hope the Toby & Rose injuries aren't too bad - not impressed by those scenes at the end, a bit embarrassing really to let the likes of Costa wind us up.
COYS - lets cement that 2nd place and for once look down and see the goons below us!

2 draws against west brom, chelsea, everton and liverpool this season. 8/24 points against lower half/mid table teams. Spursy asf. Southampton are going to be hard to beat next week too, especially with half of our team suspended

I agree that our players were disgraceful in that second half.

But much of the blame should go to the people who run the comp. When Hazard and Fabrgas et al came out and said what they did they should have be stamped down on hard by the powers that be. It was completely unacceptable and led to a poisonous atmosphere which played out on the pitch tonight.

Their fans celebrating like they just won the league. Seriously?

One positive i can take from what we're seeing here though - to every member of our club, not just the squad, this meant a huge deal. From the first on the team sheet to our perennial bench warmers, i expect even the tea lady has just kicked her trolley up against the wall and said "fuck" at the cat. You can tell by the shake of Terry's voice that this is still going on in the tunnel too.

We lost our heads, but we're young. Tons of pressure and that bunch of nasty bastards bought thorns, and the pressure made us burst. Two games left, keep playing and showing these Chelsea fans that we're a far superior team, enjoy themselves tonight, then finish mid table - fuck your mediocre bullshit, we're Tottenham, from the Lane, get out of our way and let us get on with playing some lovely football in our new stadium.

Shame, but this game wasn't won, it wasn't even a draw - we lost, frankly. We had the lead, they baited us, we lost when we took it. We now have something to focus on in the close season, prepare mentally and go into next term without letting a team like this, and a speng eyed ref like we had today, take our eye off the prize.

coys.

There's a John Terry interview after the game, maybe on Sky or on foreign feeds to begin with, but it shows he gets it. Passion, emotion, rough and tumble. Fair enough.

If anyone is complaining about the way our players reacted tonight then you can fuck off.

Can you imagine the pressure of trying to stay in the title race while some overpaid dickheads give more than they have in any other game of the season.

Fuck Leicester and fuck Chelsea, we will be back next season.

We are runners up 90% chance? They are 10th. Its not like we lost it tonight
2-0 up at HT and blowing it. With a chance to still challenge (even if very small chance) and also to enforce that 2nd place finish even more. You think they give a fuck that they are going to come 10th and that we were a little dirty? They couldn't give a fuck.

We should have spent the last 5 minutes playing football not fighting. Chelsea made sure they wound us up all night and our young team fell for it. We will learn, strengthen and move on. Just need to finish above the scum now.

It has been a fantastic season with such a young side. We have a lot to look forward to in the coming years.

Well done Leicester, enjoy your moment in the sun! It's our turn next year!

COYS!

Would rather Leicester won the league on their own patch next week. Something about Chelsea wanting to do it for them just feels wrong. You can't go from champions to winning the league for someone else.

Maybe just me but I was glad to see fight and passion, shows the players care and it hasn't always been the case with Tottenham.

We knew this would be a brutal game

Absolutely lost the plot here, and have done for most of the game even when we were 2-0 up. I suspect there will be a lot of crying on here tonight. Blame the opposition, blame the ref, I'm sure we'll have 50,000 threads on it tonight, but whatever age or experience the team you cannot be that naïve and that easily wound up and lose all composure on the game. I'd be embarrassed with what I saw if that had been Anger Management Clinic FC, let alone a PL football team.

I hope our players learn from this. If we want to play in the biggest of games, the crunch games, in the years ahead then we have to be prepared for the fact that some of them will be like tonight - with the opposition ruthless bastards trying to get any edge that they can. Niggly fouls for 90 mins, off the ball stuff constantly, stop/start, swarming the referee at any chance they get. Face to face confrontations, play acting. Etc, etc.

I'm very disappointed how across the pitch we just got wilder and wilder. Players diving in all over the place (which eventually did cost us a goal) and any gameplan falling apart. The game littered with bad fouls that deserved two or three reds on our side and one disgraceful act in particular from Dembele.

The players will learn the hard way tonight, living a game like that. Hopefully it will be to our benefit in the future and we overcome it the next time. I don't want to see such a poor reaction from the (whole) team again.

Refused to be bullied and will learn from this.

I much prefer this to "nice" Tottenham. Never do anything wrong but tend not to win - fuck those guys.
