Beating them ends their season and would give Spurs fans a nice little morale boost.

The players owe us this after the absolute stinkers they've served up of late.
 
It's fair to say at this stage that they are a better team than us and have the best defence in the league.

They have tough run in compared to City, and this will be their 3rd game in 7 days. Points dropped against Wolves or Chelsea will see them out of the title race, so expect them to be very tired coming into the game against us.

The longer this game stays goal less, the more nervous and desperate they will become. A shrewd coach may opt to pay safe keep ball for 80 minutes, and then try to smash them on the break in the final 10 when they get desperate a commit more players forward.

I suspect Woolwich will look to get an early goal, and then drop back early and contain us. If we go a goal down, it could be lights out for us.
 
Aussie team talk incoming

“G’day lads, it’s the choking, weak as piss, castlemaine 2x, fosters lite, Woolwich Assnal, .and my mother in law could beat this bunch of galahs wearing her thongs …………….mate”

Their Achilles heel is that they get tired because they press so relentlessly, their 2nd halves the drop off in intensity in stark and they leave gaps in midfield which we need to exploit.

So we need to keep being brave and play the ball around at the back and wait for opportunities to open up, easier said than done.
