It is odd isn't it, how undervalued this competition is.
I'd have started a thread myself, but last time I did for an EL game, there was one already, so I don't start match threads any more.
But quarter final of a major European trophy, a great chance of our first European semi-final for 29 years and no match thread till Tuesday.
It's not specifically a TFC thing, or even probably a THFC thing, it's just the way it is with this tournament and a lot of English clubs and their fans
I don't think it's anything to do with the value placed on the competition to be honest. You said yourself you don't start match threads any more. Sometimes people just don't start them, there wasn't really much of a match thread for the Swansea game, not in the traditional sense anyway.
You might be right, but I can't help feeling if we were playing Woolwich or in the QF of the CL someone would have started one bfore now.
I'd forgotten about Holtby (tsk tsk 357) maybe this is a game for him to start
good call EY
I'm watching this game in Ibiza, atleast I hope they have a proper connection over there.
Internet is shit in Ibiza, you should easily find a bar with ITV though.
What I'd like:
Lloris, Naughton, Dawson, Caulker, BAE, Lennon, Dembele, Carroll, Holtby, Bale and Defoe.
What I expect:
Friedel, Naughton, Gallas, Caulker, BAE, Lennon, Dembele, Parker, Holtby, Bale and Ade.
2-0 Spurs (Bale and Holtby)
Looking forward to this one, haven't been to the Lane since the Inter game...
