    lovely, does'nt eircom.net have them games on live online !


  • Registered Users Posts: 858 ✭✭✭RichMc70


    Any of you lads going to this one ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie


    Chance to go level on points with united at the top on saturday untill chelsea or themselves win/draw

    Really looking for Keane to perform well here he needs to put in a few more goals only 10 away from 100 from spurs I think. Also hopefully we can keep a clean sheet puts a lot of pressure on the strikers when we keep leaking goals like we are.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,946 ✭✭✭SuprSi


    Excellent, I'll have to find a pub in Ennis to watch this one in. Keane at home with Crouch - another 4 goals please!

    I'd say more likely palacios in for hud...agree with crouch in for defoe!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    palacious in for hudd, jenas will play.

    crouch in for defoe, id love to see pav and crouch start but that wont happen id say

    2-0 to the spurs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭keane=cock


    think it will not be pretty game. stoke are always a tough side to play against. cant see us not winnning though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    keane will prob score as all he seems to be able to do is score against the bad teams. the big games totally pass him by

    If the man wants to score 32 goals by scoring agaist all the teams outside the top 4 home any away I think we'd all be happy with that.

    I can see us cake walking this TBH, I'm gonna stick my neck out and say 4-1. keane,Crouch,Lennon and Pav off the bench.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭tippspur


    Huth is out for Stoke,got a 3 match ban this evening.Agree with those who say Palacios will replace Hudd, 2-0 win for us and Keano to score.

    Didn't keano score his 100th goal for Spurs against Sunderland in 07/08 ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie


    100 premier league goal in 07/08 only on 90ish for spurs at the moment in all comps me thinks


  • Registered Users Posts: 858 ✭✭✭RichMc70

    Righto Ronan, probably see ya in the C&H then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    Ronan i am not at this one,will be making my first trip of the season for Wigan game in a month,have a good one lads and COYS


  • Registered Users Posts: 639 ✭✭✭Seillejet


    Win it by a goal. See us conceding lads. Maybe 2-1. Bob Keane first to score though possibly from a penalty. COYS and good work starting this off Kingdom Yid. If Im still working going to enter into the ticket swap game in Feb:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99


    I was right with the Hudd call, although suprisingly woodgate is in for king. More injury worries or does he want him for the LC against Everton in the week !

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭mushykeogh


    as i said in the post about our away form "continue with the same level of performance and we might not be so lucky next time" another poor performance and this time we got caught out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭tippspur


    Daylight robbery,but you could see it coming by the way things were going for Spurs today.we should have won that game by 3 or 4 goals,everything that could go wrong did go wrong..bollox.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭Antisocialiser


    ****.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99


    Crap result.
    Plenty of chances in the 1st half but could'nt take any of them.
    Felt we missed defoe's sharpness.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    Disappointing result,we had enough chances to win but missed JD no doubt (just emphasises the stupidness of his kick last week).Thought we could have prevented the goal very static defending,damn you Glenn Whelan thats two great strikes in a couple of weeks save one for Paris please.We have to pick ourselves up beat Everton on tuesday then go into the Arsenal game with a bit more fight and passion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40 Kolya


    **** it anyway. Missed Defoe badly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,946 ✭✭✭SuprSi


    Wow. Can't believe that result. I saw the 2nd half and we completely dominated them. They had one shot on target and scored from it, after Lennon had to go off. Gutted. Concerned with our injuries now, particularly if Lennon is out with his ankle.

    Still, these results will happen from time to time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭keane=cock


    jjust watched the premiership.

    should have been out of sight by the time they scored.

    disappointed

    For a change I'm gonna be critical of Harry's tactics/ selections for todays game.

    Firstly, he took a chance on Woody playing from the start. He broke down after only 15 mins or so, and was replaced by Dawson.
    Woody has only played a game and a half of practice/friendly games since his supposed recovery. Where the hell was Ledley ???

    Secondly, he took off Robbie with 60 odd mins and done a straight swap for Pav. Robbie was not having a great game but there was no service to him whatsoever, however he was giving 100%. Everything was going high to Crouchy. At the time he replaced Robbie, Stoke had not even torubled the Octopus with a single shot. Why not play three strikers. He should have taken off Hudd, who was very ineffective and replaced Krancjar with Jenas.

    Overall I thought the general perfomance today was very lethargic and un-imaginative. Stoke 'parked the bus' and we did not have a clue on how to break them down. Turning point for Stoke was when Lennon went off (after being fouled) as it gave them the extra man and less pressure at the back.

    Totally deflated after this result and everyone who was there probably felt the same as most had big expectations of a comfortable home win.

    Ah well, it's only Arsenal away next week.

    COYS
