Wheel loose or whine? Or perhaps drawer the curtains dear friend?

...... I am convinced those of us at Spurs next Sunday will be there for a Europa party and trophy walkaround for Spuds too. A freakish season on so many levels.

We wouldn't know if we've made Europe until after Chelsea play the Conference final on the 28th

I meant present for Spurs' Europa party as their final is three or four days before our final league game. I don't know why, but I just feel Spurs will pull off a miracle and actually win something (mainly because Harry Kane has left ).

 

[Albion my Albion]

I've got a feeling about this one

I've got a feeling about this one too but it's coming from my arse end and not my top end. Some might think there isn't much difference between the two ends but there really is a difference.

Having a strong and vibrant rivalry is part of the pantomime of football as entertainment. That means sometimes it goes their way, and sometimes it goes ours. One sided rivalry's are boring. Everton have seen Liverpool win the league, Birmingham are watching Villa in the Champions League, Sunderland are watching Newcastle steam ahead, and none of those teams have been within touching distance for a long time, even if all three lesser sides can see better days ahead. Point being, we currently have a strong two-way rivalry and it makes it all the more fun. It was their turn last week, and in our h2h this season, so hats off to them. It hasn't been their turn for several years.

I don't think treating a rivalry as anything more than pantomime is particularly healthy.

Yeah, but no...

I am still pissed off.

It's jealousy. First Newcastle and now that lot winning a trophy............great that it's not 'big 6' teams winning everything but I want it to be our turn. It will be soon.

Oh yes it is.

Surely the FA will put alongside their name on the cup an asterisk -

* VAR assisted.

At the time, I may have described Saturday as the worst day of my life.

Unfortunately I was on a stag do at the time and the Stag/Groom didn't really appreciate this attitude.

I am actually going to this game, which somehow is the only home game I've made it to this season.

I've only been to games at St James' Park so far, which I feel like makes this a good omen.

Joao Pedro not in the squad I’m hearing.

What’s the weather like tonight?

What’s the weather like tonight?

A strong Scouse wind to the south

A strong Scouse wind to the south

That sounds manageable.

 

[WATFORD zero]

We're playing the Champions of England and have a good chance of getting something out of it to keep our season alive.

And you're not going ? FFS

 

[Swegulls]

Shame on me!
