spurs 3 up:eek:

WhiteWashMan

saw the 2nd and 3rd.
2 great goals on the counter attack.


much as jenas is maligned from some quarters, since he has been back in the squad, we have been a whole lot different. such a great engine.

WhiteWashMan

Judging from the fact that Bolton got a peno, I assume Keane got sent off for handling off the line. (Or chesting!)

WhiteWashMan

yep. came down on chest, and then rebounded onto hand.

never a penalty. robbie was on back post

bolton certainly on the up at the moment. just hope we dont conceed before half time

Spurs were brilliant today, simply brilliant. Best performance of the season, and I reckon our 2nd half was better than our 1st!

Berbatov is out of this world, Zokora starting to show what he's capable of.

Can't believe I've missed out last 3 games and we've scored 10 goals in the 3. Think I might be a Jonah...:(

WhiteWashMan

just give me your season ticket, that way you cant jinx us any further


great game. supurb play

big sam very very very commending towards the way we played.

good rusult with newcaslt and portsmouth losing as well, and reading losing yesterday.
roll on wham next week.

shame about the end of the carling cup.
i believe JT swlooed his toungue and was saved by the arsenal physio who was on the pitch at the time.
i hear the first half was brilliant. although, happy to see chelsea win tbh.

Blackburn cruise to a 3 nil win over Pompey without even playing McCarthy or Nelsen as well as the other injuries we have.

Come next season I feel Hughes will definitely have moulded Blackburn into one of the best squads (not teams) outside the top four.

WhiteWashMan

the problem is living up to it

Haha, well said Jesus.

I think WWM should realise that two good results in a row aren't going to turn around Tottenham's poor season considering the money they've spent. They haven't been particularly hit by injuries either, given the size of their squad.

What and Blackburns win over Portsmouth is going to turn around their season? Sure it was only a month ago ya lost to Watford. Blackburn have done nothing to really suggest they will be any better than Newcastle/Spurs/Everton/Portsmouth next season, let alone Bolton

You're like the guy at the party that goes into detail explaining the joke! The art of subtlety has been long lost from the "soccer" forum.

Never said it was going to be. Could be the start though.

I'd think that tenth in the league, still in the FA Cup (although that may change later tonight) and just out of the UEFA Cup is a pretty good season considering the injuries Blackburn have had to put up with. It took the League Cup Champions to put Rovers out of that too.

For example, take Carrick and Scholes out of United's team, along with Ferdinand for the first half of the season and Vidic for the second. That's the positions Blackburn have been missing vital players in.

Wherever Blackburn finish, I'll be proud of the season they've had considering the small squad that started the season and how sides crammed with substitutes earned a 4-1 win at Everton and a 0-0 draw with Arsenal.

They certainly haven't had the luxury of the money, or squad size, that Spurs have, yet are just two points behind them in the League.

poor plucky blackburn and their small squad.

you know, if you dont have a board that are building for the future and have made wise investments, thats hardly the fault of another team.

theres plenty of teams that are smaller than blackburn in the premiership. some of them are doing better than you.

if comparing yourself to spurs is the best you can do, then youre sadly mistaken as to what the aim of being in the premiership is.


still, if it makes you feel better, you go for it.

by the way, youre right. weve had a poor season.

were still above you though, and as you said, this is a great season for you.

it must make you feel good to aim so high?

lol

I said pretty good. At no stage did I say great.

Blackburn do have a board who spend very wisely and, look at the players the team buy, most are for the future and the coming seasons. Most aren't sold on to Portsmouth after a season either

What teams are smaller than Blackburn and doing better? About one I think you'll find: Reading. Do you even have any idea how small a club Blackburn are?

Never said Spurs were the be all and end all or that Blackburn should aim towards them, I was simply highlighting the poor season they've had. For example, Jol linked with Chelsea, don't make me laugh. For the money that's been spent on that side, they've hugely underachieved. And the excuse of building a team for the future isn't going to wash much longer. Jol has spent tens of millions and even admitted himself that he doesn't feel comfortable rotating players in his squad after performances in the Cup.

As for recent success, have a look at who won the Premiership in '95 or, if you'd prefer, who Blackburn won their last cup against

Maybe that'll make you feel better.

WhiteWashMan

i think i pointed out your recent successes, but well done on reiterating the point that you recently won something, but now you celebrate a season of mediocrity.

and i fail to see how any blackburn fan could be whinging about money that other clubs have after the amounts opf money that jack walker ploughed in to the club, but hey, you appear to just attack any poster that dare say a word about blackburn. i guess this is just another one of those reponses of yours.

Season of mediocrity? That remains to be seen. Success also varies depending on the club. What is mediocre for one could be fantastic for another. Would you call Reading's season mediocre? I wouldn't call Blackburn's season mediocre considering the injuries the squad has had the players that have been brought in. As I spelled out above.

I'm not whingeing about the money Spurs have. I am however whingeing about how they've failed to use that money. Jack Walker did plough millions into Blackburn. It lead to a Premiership victory in 1995. What has Spurs spending lead to? A season of mediocrity as you call it.

I don't attack any poster who talks about Blackburn. Not those who speak the truth anyway, I may attack those who spout crap like yourself.

You were the one who questioned my comments on Blackburn. A team who just beat Spurs' local rivals in the FA Cup. Now, who was it who hockeyed Spurs over two legs in the other cup?

hey, if youre happy with that, then im fine with it. your completely free to be happy with mid table mediocraty if you wish.

of course. and you are an enlightened font of unbiased knowledge on football.

i didnt question your comments on blackburn, you made a comment about having one of the best teams outside the top 4. i simply made a humourous remark stating that living up to it is another thing, considering the season that spurs have had. but ohhhhh no, thats an insult to you. you must have missed the little smilie or something.

and i didnt see spurs get hockied over 2 legs. i saw us give away a 2 goal lead in one match, which is not being hockied, and losing 3-1 in extra time.

which is funnily enough the same score we beat leverkusan by in germany.

you seem to be up on your recent footballing stats and like comparing scores, tell me, did you get passed laverkusan recently?

but well done on getting passed arsenal. personally, i dont see us getting passed chelsea, and i would have preferred chelsea, arsenal or utd to be battling out the final and giving that extra european spot to the league. i guess i will have to actively support chelsea and utd to get to the final now.
