Tottenham Vs West Brom: Match Thread

[ziggy]

See I don't really get this 'you nearly won the league ' piss take.

We've never been on top and bottled it like Liverpool, and we've never been that close to catching Leicester really and reducing the gap.

They should all be embarrassed themselves that their teams with way more resources than ours are scraping it out for 4th or europa

I don't get it after and I suppose it shows just how desperate they are for us not to win it. Sooo tempted to reply but decided best not to

I'm a bit perplexed about the complaints about our fans, although I agree that the home support often leaves a lot to be desired. The newspaper reports suggested that there was very good support.

THIS.

The comments in match thread about the atmosphere being flat were frankly atrocious.. Right from the start the singing never stops, just like one of those high profile European nights.. Watching so many live games right in front of cable TV I can tell if the support is good or not. WHL faithful never disappoints when called upon! Full voice to the half ended.. After that was history, but who could blame them? The support no doubt went softer for awhile but peaked all the way for us hoping to get the winner we sought.. Those fans at the lane yesterday deserved a huge standing ovation of their own!!

And for those that complaint, do be understanding audio quality does differ across streams, feeds and equipment..

I also think we saw the effect of playing after Leicester. Had we played this game Saturday I think we would have won. How the fixtures have been set up screwed us over. I've no doubt about that.

You sure do grasp at straws

Mugged and Pullis has form in that department.

In comparison to Leicester against Swansea is was poor, Leicester's fans acted like the 12th man, sung from start to finish non stop, made it a hostile atmosphere.

Last night we sang in patches but the crowd were giving off the same vibe the players were, like we would turn up and roll them over, watching the game back it really didn't feel like this was a crucial game in the title race, it felt like a mid-season game and that people had essentially given up.

Exactly, we were on top of the table for all of 12 mins (No excuse for drawing that game against Arsenal though, 10 men we should have won that tbh.)

But the truth is teams have no right to take the piss, they are only doing so because they are trying to make themselves feel better about how shit they have been, especially the gooners, they are obsessed with us, they literally only care about finishing above us and it's pathetic.

we left the gap to large to late, dropped points v west ham,arsenal and liverpool.

I disagree, the atmosphere was blistering first half, then grew increasingly edgy as the game went on and the second goal didnt come...

The guy 2 seats down seemed to be having the worst day of his life, it certainly cant be counted as 'supporting' the team if all you are doing is complaining and saying things like "oh, for fuck sake! I knew this was gonna happen! Fucking shit, we're fucking shit!! Here we go, they'll score from this, i'll fucking tell ya, they'll score from this!"

I was gonna ask why he bothered showing up...? Didn't want to tip the poor bugger over the edge...
