FA Cup vs Wimbledon - Wembley - 07/01.

[Nutter-Naylor]

I take it the bottom tier was pretty well full today then Nuts?

Yes. Decent attendance I think.

 

[Bill Madrid]

Libel. I think it would be libel rather than slander. If only Smoked Salmon was still in the game (as opposed to ‘on the game’ which I neither stated nor alleged).

So that's no then

 

[SpiderSpurs]

My normal go to place for highlights has nothing at all for our game today - Premier League Latest VIDEO News - hope we'll even be shown on MOTD later this evening.

BBC sport (aka islington tv)

 

[LEGO Boy]

Fucking BBC.

First things they talk about is how much we need to pay Harry, and whether he’ll stay at Spurs. Stupid cunts.

Yes. Concentrate on the match you twats.

Ah makes sense, Thanks - bet Dele will be crying in his sleep tonight

We mostly countered them with our cheering. It was pretty funny and silly though, they should be glad he's no longer dealing out nutmegs in their box twice a year

Regarding the unfamiliars and daytrippers, a little harsh considering these are people that actually turned up as opposed to STs who didn't.
Also, with the a new ground of 61,000 coming, who do you think will be filling it up?

They are all Spurs fans

Totally agree, inverted snobbery from those calling fans at yesterday's game "daytrippers" - we all want spurs to progress, buy better players and win titles. So unless you want us to be owned by a Russian oligarch or middle eastern oil state, we need these fans to buy shirts with Harry kane's name on the back of it etc. Everyone would love to be a season ticket holder but it's not always possible - that's why there is a waiting list!!!!

As i said above, my problem was not them being day-trippers but them dictating how the rest of us should watch the match.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

There will be plenty of room for all types of fans at the new ground and for the sake of everybody's enjoyment they should be segregated.

Its a massive generalisation but in my view football supporters fall into two major types; the traditional working class fan and a growing middle class 'audience'. There are, of course, a lot of different sub groups to each of these divisions but the point is,with a bit of forethought and planning, they can all be made welcome at the ground .

The more vocal, beery and sweary types, such as myself, should be packed tightly into a massive standing room only area and given free beer so we can generate the atmosphere. The rest of the stadium can be given over to the new guys who can generate the revenue while waving their flags and perfumed hankies.

Throwing everyone in together is a recipe for the kind of unpleasantness that the spammers generated at the taxpayers stadium. Plenty of room for everyone at NWHL.

Exactly.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Yeah I hate that, I was moved yesterday for the extended away section, but remember loads of times at WHL at FA Cup games where non-ST fans would come in and have a go at everyone for doing / not doing something.

Surely the whole idea of being in a crowd is that you follow the overall mentality or subtlety try to change it, not wade in and alienate yourself.

Agreed.

Foyth looks very comfortable on the ball, a couple of lapses in concentration but all in all a good game. He could do with bulking a bit as he's not fantastic in aerial duels.

KWP had a very good game I thought. He battles hard and likes the get down the flank. He had some bite in his challenges which I liked and when he makes a mistake he works hard to fix it. He cut in and back too much so it's clear to me he's more suited to the right, but one of those situations led to the second goal.

Agree on KWP.

Don't want to be negative but I think that Foyth is far from ready. He is indeed comfortable on the ball. But he got done by their striker a couple of times, which both times could have led to a goal. Was similar against Barnsley. I feel that if you are struggling in these games you aren't ready for the Prem/Europe. I would imagine Poch would play Davies or Wanyama at centre back for an important game, rather than Foyth, if injuries forced it.

Sissoko looked good on the motd highlights.

Agree with that and although only watched MOD and the Periscope match where I could not distinguish individual players. Not sure if he played a more advanced role with Dembele and Wanyama in the side or he just was more positive. Those that went, Was he more positive during the bits MOD did not show???
