Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Juz to add to Bro Indo Popper's informative contribution. Tottenham Hotspurs has the best FA Cup Final success rate : 8 wins out of 9 Finals, with the only lost going to Coventry City with 2 own goals by Gary Mabbut, Spurs lost 2-3.

Even though Liverpool & Man United have won the FA Cup more times than Spurs, but who dares to bet against Spurs when they reach a FA Cup Finals.

This is going to be a tough season for Spurs. May I call upon all Spurs supporters to stand together and show our support to Spurs and encourage them to better things this season.

Come on, you SPURS.... :)

ok no more clowning, says the pitbull edgar davids. this saturday spurs is going to hand aston villa their 1st defeat of the season. :D

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Alot have been said about what boo boo Paul Robinson did for England. From the replay, i think no one could prevent that goal once you take a swing. It is one of those thing....hmm, his heroic saving lots of shot during the game have been cast aside due to this unlucky bounce. Hope he plays well this weekend for Spurs yeah....Good thing that he did not look too dejected during the post England game interview. Go you Spurs!!

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

honestly bro, i havent seen the match, still waiting for a repeat telecast. but i hope it was not becos he waited for the ball to come to him, instead of running up to the ball to make a first safe touch. this is very important especially to a goalkeeper who is standing right in front of the goal mouth.

and i am sure robinson will wake up from this and up his level for spurs tomorrow. we dont need another calamity james. :D

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

Wah many Spurs supporters....!

Aston Villa v Spurs @ Villa Park

Any bro got tip ?

My gut feel is can take Spurs to win

Spurs 1x2
Spurs A-A
Score 0-2 in favor of Spurs

My gut feeling is that Martin Jol will field Robbie & Berbatov. Aaron Lennon may start in the 2nd half as I understand he is now fit. Spurs need a 2nd WIN in a row to boost their moral.

Any comments plz add or up my points.

Thanks.... cheers:)

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

The ball jump up coz of the uneven pitch(the area where the opposing goalie took goal kick in the first half). Anyway from what i see, it is neither Paul Robinson or Gary Neville fault....just plain unlucky. Robinson has always been very reliable with both legs in his clearance when playing for Spurs or England...Again pure unlucky lar.

14 Oct 2006 villa 1 spurs 1
lets pay tribute to aston villa's angel this week. what a guy! :D

from tottenham homepage -
We created a number of chances in the first half at Villa Park - Michael Dawson headed the best against the post - but failed to capitalise.

The game changed with 20 minutes remaining when Calum Davenport was judged to have fouled Gabriel Agbonlahor in the penalty and was sent off. Juan Pablo Angel missed the penalty but we were left with 10 men and, with Dawson already off after taking another bang on the head, no recognised central defenders.

Luck then turned our way as Angel headed Jermain Defoe's corner into his own net to hand us a 1-0 lead.

daws still suffering the effects of the concusion couple of weeks ago.

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

no fear and no tear bro, daws is back and spurs owned besiktas with a convincing 2-0 victory.

Berbatov is mobbed by his teammates after sealing the win.

ESPN
Dimitar Berbatov began repaying some of his £10.9million transfer fee with an inspirational display as Tottenham made a perfect start to their UEFA Cup group campaign. Berbatov showed vision to set up the opening goal for Hossam Ghaly but saved the best for himself with a stunning 63rd-minute strike.

The Bulgarian marksman, a summer signing from Bayer Leverkusen, rounded two Besiktas defenders on a marauding run and then beat goalkeeper Vedran Runje before finishing coolly.

It was a breathtaking goal which helped make a mockery of predictions Spurs would be lucky to leave Istanbul with a point.

Spurs 1 West Ham 0

ESPN
Tottenham heaped more misery on woeful West Ham thanks to a first-half strike from Egyptian striker Mido. The former Roma hitman scored his first goal for the club since he returned to White Hart Lane on a permanent basis in the summer. Mido struck seconds from the end of the first half when he collected a low cross from Edgar Davids.

Mido of Tottenham takes his shirt off to celebrate his goal against West Ham.

In the 41st minute Mascherano and Defoe were involved in a scuffle which then escalated into a scrum involving all 22 players.

Mascherano had fouled Defoe but the Spurs striker retaliated by appearing to lightly head butt the West Ham midfielder.

Referee Steve Bennett, right, stands over West Ham United's Javier Mascherano who lies on the pitch after being bitten by Tottenham Hotspurs' Jermaine Defoe, hidden, during their English Premier League soccer match at White Hart Lane Stadium, London, in this Sunday Oct. 22, 2006 file photo. Defoe will escape disciplinary punishment for biting Mascherano even though the Argentina star says he has a mark on his arm where the England player sank his teeth.

Dan Shittu of Watford clears the ball under pressure from Robbie Keane of Spurs. The match ended in a 0-0 draw.

Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London
 

No worries you Spurs Supporters!! Even though Spurs not performing as well as they should presently, we still must support Martin Jol and his team. Be patient, even if it takes 2-3 years. They are already an improved team. Just need need sometime and a few more buy and sell for them to click!:)
