Wasn't he the clown who gave the ghost goal in a the Championship years ago. How he is reffing at Premier League level is beyond me. He's useless.
Probably one of those cases where the FA felt sorry for him and have to be seen to be doing the right thing in promoting him.
I didn’t realise it was him. I thought the guy who did that game had been made to retire!
I'm just pissed off because I said you smarter than thatIt's never enough for you, Mick.
I do my best
its always disappointing to find out that you've been wrong.
My tuppence worth:
chelsea cunt should have got a red, cos, well he’s a chav.
read the fellas article bout <removed> chant. Would make me think about it if I thought it would upset a yid, but happy to scream it at the chavs. They hate it. But agree that every fucker now screams how they have been adversely affected by, well fucking anything.
as an on the way to being a baldie after 50 years a ginger, spurs fan, I believe I’m entitled to getting my own back.
So Fuck em all

I wonder how many of the LGBTQ fans and their valiant supporters who are uncomfortable with a homophobic slur are comfortable singing an ethnic slur that makes David Baddiel uncomfortable?
Frankly, I don’t see the difference other than the fact that Baddiel supports Chelsea and he loves football enough to not take a 20 year break after hearing it.
Whataboutism .. nice.
Gay football fans shouldn't have to put up with homophobia because of their love of the game, it shouldn't even be a problem.
Well done Spurs for standing up to bigots.
There’s a difference between whataboutism and fucking hypocrisy. Do I need to explain it to you?
We dont say yids in the same tone as forhire boys. One is being used to support and the other ones an insult.
I don’t think that’s the point.
No, because frankly the overlap between fans comfortable with singing both songs is probably pretty small anyway, and the chants aren't even remotely similar when you apply context. I'm not going to get drawn in to petty, false equivalences.
One is sang as an insult, the other isn't. Hence why one tends to inspire pride in our support and the other makes people feel uncomfortable & unwanted. It's not hard to work out why they're viewed very differently by the majority of the fanbase.
Emerson's play acting....
Against Chelsea anything's goes
Remember the amount of play acting from those shitstains?
Remember Costa going down holding the wrong eye?
Yeah pretty happy with it
Chelsea are a putrid boil of a club on the backside of football
The over inflated transfer market are a direct result of Abramovich's purchase of Chelsea.
I remember back in the day before the money that Stamford bridge being a National front stronghold. I remember the whole ground hissing at us and singing songs about Auschwitz. There is still an under current of those days there.
It's just a shame we didnt spank them yesterday

That is an unbelievably ignorant take.
The Spurs fanbase — including gay or gay supporting ( many of whom, I daresay, sing) — don’t get to decide if an ethnic slur makes Baddiel uncomfortable. He does.
You’re basically saying it’s okay to sing slurs as long as it doesn’t offend Spurs fans.

No I'm not. I've already said that you've made some weird assumption that LGBT fans overwhelmingly support singing said song when the likelihood is they're some of our more progressive/politically 'correct' fans. That said, singing a song which is designed as an insult is contextually different & more aggressive.
Happy with singing neither, but you're intent on ignoring the actual issue & making some non-point. Have fun with that I guess.
Are you familiar with the "2 wrongs don't make right" expression?
Just watched the game on Peacock replay. What I saw:
Romero is just so confident, good tackles and great passes everywhere on the pitch. Maybe a little too confident passing out of the back at times.
Kulu very effective.
The signing of Porro has definitely lit a rag under Royal. He is playing as if his life depended on it. He brings it forward with pace, which I love.
FF looks a decent keeper. Gets in position well, but maybe spills it a bit much.
It's going to be interesting to see the role of Son going forward. Love him off the bench in big games, but I might give him more time in lesser ones. I don't think he will stay motivated coming on at 78 minutes all the time.
Team really seems in sync. Players know where the other is going so forward passing is effective.
Maybe Levy will let Conte finish the season in Italy.

Not particularly - but twatting someone who has their back to you is crappy thing to do under any circumstances
