Has anyone else had enough?

My favourite season ever was when we went down to the Second Division. It was fantastic.

Before my time. What made it so good?

I was in the lower West stand that night with three school mates. Right at the end one of them started singing 'blow the fucking whistle'. Then the rest of us sang it. Then within seconds the whole crowd was singing it, putting a fuck ton of pressure on your mate's dad to blow his whistle.

I was in front of the shelf, the relief at the final whistle was palatable!

We took massive numbers everywhere and took liberties everywhere we went.

To me you will forever look like Gary Oldman for that one line. God Bless.

That post with the quotes made me laugh so much. DSanditon - watch and learn Padawan.

Sorry, I don't understand. Maybe I misread the message...

 

[DSanditon]

No worries dude. Just grumpy f*cks trying to push each others wheelchairs off the ramp without actually making a point of any interest.

Ermmm...

OK.

 

[Twoleftfeet]

I must be a stupid optimist, I will criticise the team and the manager but every game I go into with the expectation (not just hope, but expectation) that this time we’ll do great....
I’m especially excited about the game tonight. I know, hopeless case.

This thread is just weird. We are 6th in the league and if we win our 2 games in hand we will be 1 point off 4th. Some posts on here make it seem like we are 18th.

It wasn't so long ago that the entire world was laughing at Woolwich and their suicidal fans then they went and beat Chelsea. Just calm down and save the meltdowns for after the game.

I am always excited to watch Tottenham and I don't understand any Tottenham fan who isn't.

Each to their own. I didn't find the Brighton match exciting at all. Makes me sleepy watching us.

Can't really be asked and i used to love the game.

He made the thread in July 2019!! I don’t think he was talking about this week and current events.

Unless he’s the new Nostradamus.......in which case.....

Poch was probably a victim of his own success. Unhappy fans after another top 4 & only CL runners up. Playing injured kane FFS!
Fast forward & most would snatch your hand off at just scrapping 4th & nothing else.

Always have to chuckle at the notion that Poch achieved massive success in the same season the club owners and squad failed massively and underachieved.

“It was our biggest achievement in decades sack the board”

Saw us play them at the Lane in the League Cup a number of years back. Was in the Park Lane and they were one of the most enthusiastic bunch of fans I'd heard. The cunts who have had control of them in recent times completely fucked them over. Bless 'em indeed.

They finally got rid of the nonce who was bleeding them dry didn't they?

 

[Zomb]

Yes I believe so. Family were/are a bunch of idiots. Imagine actually going to court with your own fans!

Didn’t the son get exposed for banging prozzies out of the clubs pocket or something weird

Wouldn't surprise me, but the dad (Owen Oyston) got jail time for raping a 16 year old. Not even his bent political mates could help him get out of it.

Remember the bigger picture Dr.Squid..

It's fingernails offside at this point.

Under the floodlights it could be shadows caught off-side next. No; all close calls should always favour the attacking side- problem solved.

 

[Pzabbythethird]

The obvious solution should be that no more than half your body's width can be offside. Draw the line based on that. This whole "your big nose meant you're offside" is just silly.

I agree the application of VAR hasn't been perfect, but it's not that simple.
Let's say we concede, and upon VAR, the lines are drawn, and the attacking player is marginally offside (ie his head is offside). What are VAR officials meant to do at that point? Let the goal stand even though they know it's the wrong decision? We'd all be furious.

VAR has meant that I, and many others I know, hesitate to celebrate immediately when a goal goes in. That's what makes football special, it's not a sport like basketball where points are being scored all the time, it's about utter euphoria when a goal is scored.

The City CL VAR overturn is one of my favourite sporting moments in recent times; but it's now starting to ruin every single match for me.
The problem is: the standard of officiating is still not great, and TV cameras have many angles and slow-motion. This means that many goals are starting to be correctly overturned (offsides, foul in build up etc.) But this means many fans are rationally weary there's a significant probability that any goal could be overturned.

Yes it is as simple as that; if the line is drawn and an attacking players head, hand or foot is off-side its close enough to give the advantage to the attacking side ie it’s tight enough to give onside; a simple rule change!

Extending it to half a bodies width just creates the problem- who says what is half and what’s a third?
