Spurs V Newcastle Match Thread 19/04/09

All our challanges are turning into great passes for Spurs, WTF

That_Guy

Every set piece we've had at their end turns into a counter attack.

mike65

Newcastles wide men are too deep to be of any value.

WhiteWashMan

jaysus, i thought spurs were playing in blue there for a while. you boys cant string 3 passes together without giving it away

Stating the obvious.

M5

Nasty looking injury.... ouch. Playing a blinder so far

That_Guy

4-4-2 now it seems. Looked like Dowie was signaling that to the players.

same for the last 10 matches or so, 3 pts from 21 kinda speaks volumes

WhiteWashMan

indeed, much like our first 10 matches of the season

M5

Rick O'Shea playing an absolute blinder for spurs, FFS

mike65

The boys on fivelive are amused at the incompetence of Shearer/Dowie.

Ohhh close.

That_Guy

Oh holy Jesus.

M5

Blessed there....

WhiteWashMan

ffs

That_Guy

We need half time.

Duff

Andy Grey seems to have a problem confusing Harper with Tyalor.

Spurs, sharper, stronger, and more determined, we need a miracle (or a midfield) How many times have we attacked down the right??????????

WhiteWashMan

harper cant keep getting his fingertips to these all day.

That_Guy

We are all over the place. Good luck to us staying up if we're going to play our remaining matches in they style of this one.

We have players on the right???

M5

45 mins of the usual slop we have come to expect to be honest, clueless.... Look at that from butt, for god sake man!!!!!!

WhiteWashMan

no, and i think that may be part of the problem. hoofing the ball up to someone who is 5 ft nothing against a couple of six footers doesnt work too well.

not everyone knows how to use them elbows like shearer did :P

That_Guy

Shearer do us a favour and stick on a jersey and get out there.

Duff

Probably our best chance of the game there..

M5

and when you decline an oppertunity like that sure you may as well go home, backs to the wall

The only chance.

WhiteWashMan

good god

M5

Another super cross causes problems in the Spurs box...... Oh wait!!!!

mike65

Can't wait for May 3rd.

maybe it'll be a repeat of the same fixture last season. Spurs were one up and conceded four in the second half.

That_Guy

Absolutely woeful first half. Overpaid donkeys running around out there.

That was Newcastle's display of Championship football for next year.

We got one back from Butt just before half time.

youll get murdered in the championship playing that type of football.

seriously, spurs should have scored a second by accident by this stage.

M5

Stor of the half so far

Spurs attack
Newcastle clear to midfield
straight to a spurs player/Newcastle midfielder who gives it to spurs,
repeat

That_Guy

Need to start playing NOW!!!

M5

Look out Spurs!!!!! Here comes Alan Smith, i can feel the shaking from here

Mezcita

Leeds V Newcastle should be good next season....

That_Guy

Taylor off..... Crap.

That_Guy

It's like half time never came.

Duff

But look whos replaced him!!

That_Guy

Really should've done a like for like and put Edgar in Taylor's place.

The thing about Shearer is that he was a striker for Newcastle so he's only concerned it would seem with strikers. Look at our bench. One midfielder and one defender. Apart from Tim Krul the rest are all strikers.

WhiteWashMan

at least you can still beat boro in the local derby next season too

That_Guy

Final ball letting us down every time. We've gotten into the Spurs box more times than we have in the first half.

M5

patiently awaiting the second so i can watch something more enjoyable

That_Guy

Come on the Toon!!

That_Guy

Great defending from Bassong.

WhiteWashMan

ffs

Duff

FFS they couldn't cross their legs!

Made a balls of the first interception in fairness....

Here comes the kitchen sink!

Duff

All out attack for the last half hour...great..
