A 5 from me. Almost the start of a turtle head but not quite.

Yeah I was convinced it’d be 4-4

I look nothing like him!
One minute I'm looking for 5-0. All of a sudden, I'm praying for a 4-3 at least.

I left at 84 minutes. Just got home. Did we win? Come on football, give us a goal! GOAL!

I went for 4, a bit concerned but more annoyed we lost our clean sheet and reduced our goal difference by 2.

Not in the slightest. For whatever reason, Spurs left it far too late to start playing. I thought they normally did it the other way around and knackered themselves out BY 70 mins.

A seven for me. You just know that if the one that hit the post at 4-2 went in we’d have drawn that.
Some people near me were concerned throughout the game. We took the lead on 11 minutes, went 2-0 up in the 23rd minute, and from then on we never had less than a 2 goal cushion. They couldn't understand, at all, why you would bring on your first choice left back in place of a centre back playing as your makeshift third choice left back, when 2-0 up. Not sure the goal shut them up. (Yes, I'm aware there was an injury issue for Igor, too, but that wasn't known at the time, and even though that is the reason, easing a player returning from injury into the team when you're 2-0 up isn't really a perplexing action). They were terrified whenever we didn't have the ball despite the evidence of the Spurs performance before we took the lead. It was quite frustrating. I genuinely think they did not enjoy today's game at all. They can't have. Not with all the moaning they did.

Was OK till they hit the post to go 4-3, went up to 5 then... if that had gone in would've gone up to 10! Christ that was a mad last 20

Where do you sit? Could have been me but don’t think I was that coval
Cacked my pants throughout the game. At 4-0 I felt safe but then we shipped two and it all felt familiar

Yep, I have followed this club too long. Full 10 for me after they pulled it back to 4-2 and we sat deep whilst looking absolutely knackered.
But what a night, what a game, what a goal from Pervis, what defending, and what mind blowing one touch passing before the Spurs comeback.
Did I imagine it or did the ref give just about every decision to Spurs in the last 15 mins?

When they sang 'is this the Emirates?' after their second when: a) over half of their fans left at 4-0; b) they'd been pretty much silent up to that point for about an hour of the game; c) the atmosphere had been good throughout from the North but understandably was suddenly a bit stunned at what had happened out of nowhere
