Never mind the MOTD crew, who was the horse's arse of a summariser on Football First who claimed Palacios brought down McFadden?

they reaally pissed me off they just kept sniveling on about spurs and didnt really pick up on any of the good we did do in the match. yeah when he kept saying it was a blatent pen and i was fuming. what a twat :(

Dixon's fine. he said both Defoe and keane might have had a hatful, and was quite clear we were the better team. So he's got reservations about our defence when it comes to playing the really top teams. Fair comment. Certainly not a bitter gunner in any respect.

Even Keown's not too bad. Sopmetimes when I hear him on the radio I think "that's Keown", but have to do a double-take because his comments are reasonable and measured.

There's a lot of criticism of MoTD but I find it fine. It's a highlights programme playing to a mass audience. I enjoy itr. Actually, the criticism it receives, for the most part I find unreasonable.

I'm sure Harry is on to it but our defenders could do with paying attention to the MOTD analysis.
As for the jokers on Sky and the McFadden"pen" that is a different matter.

Well said, I think some posters on here are a little sensitive to criticism of our beloved Spurs. Dixon and Keown are two of the best pundits on TV.

I found it annoying last night also, but on reflection I like the fact we're getting criticised

We don't want the players thinking we're the finished article because we're not

Thought the analysis was fair and it did highlight a few flaws which we need to work on. Without Ledley King at the back we do get sloppy, sad thing to say but its been proven, time and time again. Yes against really good opp we'll be exposed....Gomes is also a miss.

Well they have to talk about something.

Personally it's The Sun advert that annoys me. After Harry says "And hopefully Spurs", and then Wright and Venables are seen laugh and smirking respectively.

YES!!! I thought i was the only one who noticed this!! I hate Ad! Although one i do love (going off topic i know) is the one on Sky for Sky HD i think it is. Where the Scum let a goal in V Utd but with no Utd players on screen!!! LOVE that one :grin:

Tony Gale(i think) what a fucking cock that man is. I was actually getting more and more wound up listening to him make comments about that incident i almost gave the kids a good hiding.

I have a grudging respect for Dixon after Gazza's appearance on MOTD. He allowed Paul to say his bit, but when it became clear that he was losing the thread and repeating himself he gently stepped in and expanded on what Gazza was saying. He was keen to help him maintain a bit of dignity and acted like a decent man should.

And to be honest we are very sloppy at times at the back, we have given teams to many good goal scoring opportunities in the four games so far. Certainly the top four teams don't give that much away and if we are aiming to get in there, then it needs to be improved upon. I wouldn't call that negative but just being honest and giving an opinion.

The commentators I was listening to kept banging on about Palacios clipping McFadden's heel. Even though the replays showed that Palacios withdrew from the challenge and then McFadden clipped his own heel. Pathetic.
That was driving me nuts also! :evil:
Shows why eye witness evidence can be dodgy.

Every pundit seems to bare a grudge against us, on sky Andy Hrey cannot say a positive word about us and on motd they are the same....we have won EVERY game this season and still they cannot give us the respect.

Last night Arsenal lost and Lee Dixon was creaming over them we won and we have a dodgy defence its a joke

That's interesting to hear...I've not been able to find much reason for antipathy towards Dixon. And with this new information - maybe he's an allright person ? :shifty::oops:Eek:liar::hand::shhh:

Wut?

King
Woodgate
Dawson
Bassong
Corluka
BAE
Naughton

Quality, the lot of them.


(Hutton...)
(Bale...)

Have I misread you and you're being very deadpan or summat?
and thats why there are 0 clean sheets so far?

and everyone hated BAE, Dawson, and was probably laughing at bassong only a short while ago
